Canonical Quantization and Braid Invariance of 2+1 Gravity Coupled to Point Particles*
We investigate the canonical quantization of gravity coupled to pointlike matter in 2+1 dimensions, starting from the usual point particle action, and working in the rst order formalism. By introducing an auxiliary variable, we make the theory locally Poincar e invariant. The enlarged symmetry group simpliies the analysis of diieomorphism invariance. In the passage to the quantum theory, a non-...
متن کاملThree dimensional loop quantum gravity: coupling to point particles
We consider the coupling between three dimensional gravity with zero cosmological constant and massive spinning point particles. First, we study the classical canonical analysis of the coupled system. Then, we go to the Hamiltonian quantization generalizing loop quantum gravity techniques. We give a complete description of the kinematical Hilbert space of the coupled system. Finally, we define ...
متن کاملHamiltonian structure of 2+1 dimensional gravity
A summary is given of some results and perspectives of the hamiltonian ADM approach to 2 + 1 dimensional gravity. After recalling the classical results for closed universes in absence of matter we go over the the case in which matter is present in the form of point spinless particles. Here the maximally slicing gauge proves most effective by relating 2 + 1 dimensional gravity to the RiemannHilb...
متن کاملPath integrals and instantons in quantum gravity: Minisuperspace models.
While there does not at this time exist a complete canonical theory of full 3+1 quantum gravity, there does appear to be a satisfactory canonical quantization of minisuperspace models. The method requires no ‘choice of time variable’ and preserves the systems’ explicit reparametrization invariance. In the following study, this canonical formalism is used to derive a path integral for quantum mi...
متن کاملExact operator quantization of a model of two-dimensional dilaton gravity.
Exact operator quantization is perfomed of a model of two-dimensional dilaton gravity in Lorentzian spacetime, classically equivalent to the one proposed by Callan, Giddings, Harvey and Strominger, in the special case with 24 massless matter scalars. This is accomplished by developing a non-linear and non-local quantum canonical transformation of basic interacting fields into a set of free fiel...
