Quantum tunneling of quantum geometries

We characterize tunneling in spin foam theories using the analogy with the path integral formulation of 1D Quantum Mechanics.

Numerical methods for spin foam theories

We developed an open source library to compute spin foam transition amplitudes with your computer.

Quantum information techniques for quantum gravity

We study quantum gravity states using entanglement entropy, general typical entanglement entropy, and area-law states.

Low-energy limit of spin foam theories

We study spin foam theories' low energy regime and the emergence of general relativity (or a discrete version of it).

Canonical loop quantum gravity

We explored the space of LQG kinematical states and the geometrical interpretation of the intertwiner space.

Other research topics in quantum gravity

There are many approaches to the problem of quantum gravity. I also worked on asymptotically safe gravity.
