Description
Quantum gravity is one of the most intriguing problems in physics, offering new insights into time, space and matter. This book provides an accessible introduction to loop quantum gravity, focusing on its covariant approach. The authors explore various aspects of this complex topic, including the nature of space-time, classical and quantum physics without time, and the mathematical frameworks that underpin it. Topics such as quanta of space, tetrad formalism, and Holst action are covered in detail, making this book an ideal resource for researchers and graduate students. By examining these concepts, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the physical and conceptual foundations of loop quantum gravity, including its applications to black hole thermodynamics and the early Universe.
