Operator Spin Foams: holonomy formulation and coarse graining

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2015-06-03 v1

Abstract

A dual holonomy version of operator spin foam models is presented, which is particularly adapted to the notion of coarse graining. We discuss how this leads to a natural way of comparing models on different discretization scales, and a notion of renormalization group flow on the partially ordered set of 2-complexes.
