Recursion relations in spin foam models
Speaker(s): Valentin Bonzom
Abstract: Spin foam models aim at defining non-perturbative and background independent amplitudes for quantum gravity. In this work, I argue that the dynamics and the geometric properties of spin foam models can be nicely studied using recursion relations. In 3d gravity and in the 4d Ooguri model, the topolog... read more
