Area operator in loop quantum gravity (Q1683957): Difference between revisions

The author extended his earlier work done on Chern-Simons path integrals in \(\mathbb{R}^3\). Here, he wrote this infinite dimensional path integral as the limit of a sequence of Chern-Simons integrals. The main result obtained by the author shows that the area operator can be computed from a link-surface diagram between hyperlink \(L\) and surface \(S\). By assigning an irreducible representation of \(\operatorname{su}(2)\times \operatorname{su}(2)\) to each component of \(L\), the area operator gives the total net momentum impact on the surface \(S\). The work can have impact on the scientific community working in this area.
