چکیده
We compute some components of the graviton propagator in loop quantum gravity, using the spinfoam formalism, up to some second order terms in the expansion parameter.

Non-Anticommutative Quantum Gravity
A calculation of the one loop gravitational self-energy graph in non-anticommutative quantum gravity reveals that graviton loops are damped by internal momentum dependent factors in the modified propagator and the vertex functions. The non-anticommutative quantum gravity perturbation theory is finite for matter-free gravity and for matter interactions.
متن کاملFinite One-Loop Corrections and Perturbative Gauge Invariance in Quantum Gravity Coupled to Photon Fields
One-loop calculations in quantum gravity coupled to U(1)-Abelian fields (photon fields) are ultraviolet finite and cutoff-free in the framework of causal perturbation theory. We compute the photon loop correction to the graviton propagator and the photon self-energy in second order perturbation theory. Perturbative gauge invariance to second order is shown and generates the gravitational Slavno...
متن کاملGravity in Randall-Sundrum Brane World Revisited
We point out some subtleties with gauge fixings (which sometimes include the so-called “brane bending” effects) typically used to compute the graviton propagator on the Randall-Sundrum brane. In particular, the brane, which has non-vanishing tension, explicitly breaks some part of the diffeomorphisms, so that there are subtleties arising in going to, say, the axial gauge or the harmonic gauge. ...
متن کاملQuantum aspects of massive gravity
We consider the effect of quantum interactions on Pauli–Fierz massive gravity. With generic graviton cubic interactions, we observe that the 1loop counterterms do not conform to the tree level structure of Pauli–Fierz action, resulting in the reappearance of the sixth mode ghost. Then to explore the quantum effects to the full extent, we calculate the resummed graviton propagator with an arbitr...
متن کاملEvaporating loop quantum black hole
In this paper we obtain the black hole metric from a semiclassical analysis of loop quantum black hole. Our solution and the Schwarzschild one tend to match well at large distances from Planck region. In r = 0 the semiclassical metric is regular and singularity free in contrast to the classical one. By using the new metric we calculate the Hawking temperature and the entropy. For the entropy we...
