Edge States in Canonical Gravity

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2008-02-03 v2 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

It is well-known that gauge fields defined on manifolds with spatial boundaries support states localized at the boundary. In this talk, we show how similar states arise in canonical gravity abd discuss their physical relevance using their analogy to quantum Hall effect.
