Loop quantum cosmology: relation between theory and observations
read the original abstract
This chapter provides a review of the frameworks developed for cosmological perturbation theory in loop quantum cosmology, and applications to various models of the early universe including inflation, ekpyrosis and the matter bounce, with an emphasis on potential observational consequences. It also includes a discussion on extensions to include non-Gaussianities and background anisotropies, as well as on its limitations concerning trans-Planckian perturbations and quantization ambiguities. It concludes with a summary of recent work studying the relation between loop quantum cosmology and full loop quantum gravity.

Spinfoams, $\gamma$-duality and parity violation in primordial gravitational waves
γ-duality in the EPRL spinfoam model determines the relation between parity-even and parity-odd terms in an effective gravity theory, allowing the Barbero-Immirzi parameter to be measured from inflationary tensor observables.

Stable initial conditions and analytical investigations of cosmological perturbations in a modified loop quantum cosmology
A stable initial state is identified in mLQC-I that diagonalizes the Hamiltonian and minimizes particle creation, with mode functions approximated analytically by Airy or cylindrical functions whose constants are fixe...
