Workshop
Loop Quantum Gravity
- Christian Fleischhack (MPI MIS, Leipzig, Germany)
Abstract
Loop quantum gravity is one of the most prominent approaches to quantum gravity. Starting with its origins, we outline the gauge-theoretic and quantum-geometric foundations. Then the main achievements are summarized. Here, we will focus on black holes and quantum cosmology. Finally, we are going to discuss perspectives, limitations and open problems of the theory.
