abstract

We present a non-perturbative quantization of general relativity coupled to dust and other matter fields. The dust provides a natural time variable, leading to a physical Hamiltonian with spatial diffeomorphism symmetry. The surprising feature is that the Hamiltonian is not a square root. This property, together with the kinematical structure of loop quantum gravity, provides a complete theory of quantum gravity, and puts in technical reach applications to cosmology, quantum gravitational collapse and Hawking radiation.

Canonical form of a deformed Poisson bracket spacetime

gr-qc · 2025-11-25 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

A Hamiltonian is constructed that renders a deformed Poisson bracket spacetime theory canonical and covariant, enabling consistent coupling to scalar matter and dust.
