量子几何I:圈量子引力基础。量子多面体

Quantum Geometry I : Basics of Loop Quantum Gravity. The Quantum Polyhedra

J. Manuel Garcia-Islas

摘要:

广义相对论用几何术语描述引力。这表明量子化这种理论与量子化几何学是一样的。因此,这个问题可以被称为量子几何,人们可能会认为数学家负责这个问题。不幸的是,大多数数学家都不知道这个美丽的研究领域。在这里,我们给出一个基本的介绍,量子几何意味着一个社区工作在一个理论称为环量子引力。它是针对研究生或高年级学生的物理和数学。我们从数学家的角度来做。

英文摘要:

General Relativity describes gravity in geometrical terms. This suggests that quantizing such theory is the same as quantizing geometry. The subject can therefore be called quantum geometry and one may think that mathematicians are responsible of this subject. Unfortunately, most mathematicians are not aware of this beautiful area of study. Here we give a basic introduction to what quantum geometry means to a community working in a theory known as loop quantum gravity. It is directed towards graduate or upper students of physics and mathematics. We do it from a point of view of a mathematician.
