Asymptotic Dynamics: Spin Foam Partition Functions in an Asymptotic Regime

Frank Hellmann Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics - Albert Einstein Institute (AEI)

July 25, 2013

PIRSA:13070068

Spin foam models are models for space time built from discrete chunks of quantized geometry. In the asymptotic regime the classical geometry is regained.
In the last year we have seen rapid developments in our understanding of this geometry at the level of the entire partition function. In particular it was found that the geometries that contribute to the partition function in the asymptotic regime satisfy accidental curvature constraints.
I will discuss the classic results and role of asymptotics, the recent results and their impact on the interpretation of these models.
Spinfoam Formulation of Loop Quantum Gravity

Muxin Han Florida Atlantic University

July 24, 2013

PIRSA:13070067

Recently there are a lot of progresses in developing the spinfoam formulation of loop quantum gravity. In this talk I give an overview of the subject. I introduce the formalism and the motivation of the theory, and I discuss the application of spinfoam formulation in black hole and cosmology. I also discuss the inclusion of the quantum matter fields and cosmological constant in the formalism. The inclusion of cosmological constant motivates a Chern-Simons formulation of LQG. Finally I discuss the semiclassical low-energy approximation of the spinfoam formulation, where Einstein gravity appears as the leading contribution.
Recently Obtained Non-Perturbative 1/N Expansion of Tensor Models

Razvan Gurau Universität Heidelberg

July 24, 2013

PIRSA:13070066

I will present the recently obtained non perturbative 1/N expansion of tensor models. The correlation functions are shown to be analytic in the coupling constant in some domain of the complex plane and to support appropriate scaling bounds at large N. Surprisingly, the non perturbative setting turns out to be a powerful computational tool allowing the explicit evaluation order by order (with bounded rest terms) of the correlations.

PIRSA:13070065

I will present the tensorial renormalization group approach to quantum gravity and the tentative scenario it suggests for the emergence of space-time.
Twistor Strings for N=8 Supergravity

David Skinner University of Cambridge

July 24, 2013

PIRSA:13070064

The perturbative S-matrix of General Relativity has a rich and fascinating geometric structure that is completely obscured by its traditional description in terms of Feynman diagrams. I'll explain a new way of looking at four dimensional supergravity: as a string theory in twistor space. All tree-level amplitudes in the theory can be described by algebraic curves in Penrose's nonlinear graviton
Spinor and Twistor Networks in Loop Gravity

Etera Livine French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS)

July 24, 2013

PIRSA:13070063

I will review the reformulation of the loop gravity phase space in terms of spinor networks and twistor networks, and present how these techniques can be used to write spinfoam amplitudes as discretized path integrals and to study the dynamics that they define (recursion, Hamiltonian constraints as differential equations).
