Considering boundary conditions for black hole entropy in loop quantum gravity
Takashi Tamaki
TL;DR
This paper proposes a new approach to black hole entropy in loop quantum gravity by considering boundary conditions that imply no other side of the horizon, leading to revised values for the Barbero-Immirzi parameter.
Contribution
It introduces a novel interpretation of boundary conditions in LQG that results in larger Barbero-Immirzi parameter values and explores their implications.
Findings
New values for the Barbero-Immirzi parameter are proposed.
The interpretation affects the calculation of black hole entropy in LQG.
Discusses consequences of the revised boundary condition approach.
Abstract
We argue for black hole entropy in loop quantum gravity (LQG) by taking into account the interpretation that there is no other side of the horizon. This gives new values for the Barbero-Immirzi parameter which are fairly larger than those considered before. We also discuss its consequences.
