abstract
We revisit the loop gravity space phase for 3D Riemannian gravity by algebraically constructing the phase space $T^*\mathrm{SU}(2)\sim\mathrm{ISO}(3)$ as the Heisenberg double of the Lie group $\mathrm{SO}(3)$ provided with the trivial cocyle. Tackling the issue of accounting for a non-vanishing cosmological constraint $\Lambda \ne 0$ in the canonical framework of 3D loop quantum gravity, $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ viewed as the Heisenberg double of $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ provided with a non-trivial cocyle is introduced as a phase space. It is a deformation of the flat phase space $\mathrm{ISO}(3)$ and reproduces the latter in a suitable limit. The $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ phase space is then used to build a new, deformed LQG phase space associated to graphs. It can be equipped with a set of Gauss constraints and flatness constraints, which form a first class system and Poisson-generate local 3D rotations and deformed translations. We provide a geometrical interpretation for this lattice phase space with constraints in terms of consistently glued hyperbolic triangles, i.e. hyperbolic discrete geometries, thus validating our construction as accounting for a constant curvature $\Lambda<0$. Finally, using ribbon diagrams, we show that our new model is topological.
