From a physical point of view the emphasis will be on conceptual issues concerning the relationship of the formalism with other more traditional approaches inspired in the treatment of the fundamental interactions in the standard model. Mathematically I will pay special attention to functional analytic issues, the construction of the relevant Hilbert spaces and the definition and properties of geometric operators: areas and volumes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-04-23T14:47:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "83C45", "04.60.Pp", "03.65.-w", "03.70.+k" ], "keywords": [ "quantum geometry", "loop quantum gravity", "pay special attention", "functional analytic issues", "relevant hilbert spaces" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "AIP Conf.
