Barbero–Immirzi field in canonical formalism of pure gravity
The Barbero–Immirzi (BI) parameter is promoted to a field and a canonical analysis is performed when it is coupled with a Nieh–Yan topological invariant. It is shown that, in the effective theory, the BI field is a canonical pseudoscalar minimally coupled with gravity. This framework is argued to be more natural than the one of the usual Holst action. Potential consequences in relation with inf...
متن کاملA possible interpretation of the Barbero–Immirzi parameter and its consequences
Motivations: The Barbero–Immirzi (BI) parameter is a free constant that appears in the spectra of area and volume operators of LQG. Many authors have contributed to shed light on the origin of this ambiguity. a Here we present an extension of the idea originally proposed by Gambini, Obregon and Pullin. Idea: The BI parameter is a quantization ambiguity analogous to the θ-angle of Yang–Mills gau...
متن کاملHamiltonian dynamics and Faddeev-Jackiw quantization of 3D gravity with a Barbero-Immirzi like parameter
It is well-know that 3-dimensional gravity is an interesting toy model. In fact, it is considered as good test theory for trying to understand the difficulties that emerge in the quantization of four dimensional gravity. It is worth to mention, that since the works developed by Achucarro, Towsend, Witten and other authors [1, 2], there is a huge effort for understanding at classical and quantum...
متن کاملSO(4,C)-covariant Ashtekar–Barbero gravity and the Immirzi parameter
An so(4,C)-covariant hamiltonian formulation of a family of generalized Hilbert– Palatini actions depending on a parameter (the so called Immirzi parameter) is developed. It encompasses the Ashtekar–Barbero gravity which serves as a basis of quantum loop gravity. Dirac quantization of this system is constructed. Next we study dependence of the quantum system on the Immirzi parameter. The path i...
متن کاملA Note on Parity Violation and the Immirzi Parameter
There has been considerable recent interest in the Immirzi parameter as a measure of parity violating effects in the classical theory of gravitation with fermion coupling. Most recently it was shown that the Immirzi parameter together with the non-minimal coupling constant of Dirac spinors provides the measure for parity violating spin-spin interaction terms in the effective field theory. For c...
