This paper is twofold. First of all a complete unified picture of $n$-dimensional quantum gravity is proposed in the following sense: In spin foam models of quantum gravity the evaluation of spin networks play a very important role. These…
A lattice system of spinor atoms or molecules experiencing quadratic Zeeman effect is considered. This can be an optical lattice with sufficiently deep wells at lattice sites, so that the system is in an isolating state, where atoms are…

We explore the classical setting for the U(N) framework for SU(2) intertwiners for loop quantum gravity (LQG) and describe the corresponding phase space in terms of spinors with appropriate constraints. We show how its quantization leads…
We use the idea of the symmetry between the spacetime coordinates x^\mu and the energy-momentum p^\mu in quantum theory to construct a momentum space quantum gravity geometry with a metric s_{\mu\nu} and a curvature P^\lambda_{\mu\nu\rho}.…
Spin-foam models are hoped to provide a dynamics for loop quantum gravity. These start from the Plebanski formulation of gravity, in which gravity is obtained from a topological field theory, BF theory, through constraints, which, however,…
