Black Holes and Loop Quantum Gravity
Valencia, March 26-28, 2009
In honor of Prof. Joaquin Olivert
The Workshop on Black Holes and Loop Quantum
Gravity will take place in Valencia, Spain, from the 26th to the
28th of March, 2009. The purpose of the workshop is to bring together
researchers working on quantum aspects of black holes, with emphasis
on ideas that have originated in loop quantum gravity. A partial
list of topics to be covered is as follows:
- Black hole entropy
in LQG
- Spin foam approach to black holes
- Singularity resolution
and information loss
- Prospects for a detailed description of
the Hawking radiation
- Comparison between results from LQG and other approaches
This will be a 'Discussion Workshop'. Therefore a significant
time will be set aside for a critical evaluation of ideas that
are being pursued in current research and on finding fertile directions
for future work.
