 Physics , 2008, DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.77.104024 Abstract: The combinatorial problem of counting the black hole quantum states within the Isolated Horizon framework in Loop Quantum Gravity is analyzed. A qualitative understanding of the origin of the band structure shown by the degeneracy spectrum, which is responsible for the black hole entropy quantization, is reached. Even when motivated by simple considerations, this picture allows to obtain analytical expressions for the most relevant quantities associated to this effect.
 Mohammad H. Ansari Physics , 2006, DOI: 10.1016/j.nuclphysb.2007.11.038 Abstract: Without imposing the trapping boundary conditions and only from within the very definition of area it is shown that the loop quantization of area manifests an unexpected degeneracy in area eigenvalues. This could lead to a deeper understanding of the microscopic description of a quantum black hole. If a certain number of semi-classically expected properties of black holes are imposed on a quantum surface its entropy coincides with the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy.
 Sergei Alexandrov Physics , 2004, Abstract: We argue that counting black hole states in loop quantum gravity one should take into account only states with the minimal spin at the horizon.
 Physics , 2006, DOI: 10.1088/0264-9381/24/9/002 Abstract: We explicitly construct and characterize all possible independent loop states in 3+1 dimensional loop quantum gravity by regulating it on a 3-d regular lattice in the Hamiltonian formalism. These loop states, characterized by the (dual) angular momentum quantum numbers, describe SU(2) rigid rotators on the links of the lattice. The loop states are constructed using the Schwinger bosons which are harmonic oscillators in the fundamental (spin half) representation of SU(2). Using generalized Wigner Eckart theorem, we compute the matrix elements of the volume operator in the loop basis. Some simple loop eigenstates of the volume operator are explicitly constructed.
 Yoshiko Ogata Physics , 2005, DOI: 10.1088/0305-4470/39/12/014 Abstract: We investigate local distinguishability of quantum states by use of the convex analysis about joint numerical range of operators on a Hilbert space. We show that any two orthogonal pure states are distinguishable by local operations and classical communications, even for infinite dimensional systems. An estimate of the local discrimination probability is also given for some family of more than two pure states.
 Physics , 2012, DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.85.104033 Abstract: We elaborate on our proposal regarding a connection between global physics and local galactic dynamics via quantum gravity. This proposal calls for the concept of MONDian dark matter which behaves like cold dark matter at cluster and cosmological scales but emulates modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) at the galactic scale. In the present paper, we first point out a surprising connection between the MONDian dark matter and an effective gravitational Born-Infeld theory. We then argue that these unconventional quanta of MONDian dark matter must obey infinite statistics, and the theory must be fundamentally non-local. Finally, we provide a possible top-down approach to our proposal from the Matrix theory point of view.
 Physics , 1999, DOI: 10.1016/S0550-3213(99)00612-4 Abstract: We study an integrable quantum field theory of a single stable particle with an infinite number of resonance states. The exact $S$--matrix of the model is expressed in terms of Jacobian elliptic functions which encode the resonance poles inherently. In the limit $l \to 0$, with $l$ the modulus of the Jacobian elliptic function, it reduces to the Sinh--Gordon $S$--matrix. We address the problem of computing the Form Factors of the model by studying their monodromy and recursive equations. These equations turn out to possess infinitely many solutions for any given number of external particles. This infinite spectrum of solutions may be related to the irrational nature of the underlying Conformal Field Theory reached in the ultraviolet limit. We also discuss an elliptic version of the thermal massive Ising model which is obtained by a particular value of the coupling constant.
 S. Majid Physics , 1992, Abstract: Braided tensor products have been introduced by the author as a systematic way of making two quantum-group-covariant systems interact in a covariant way, and used in the theory of braided groups. Here we study infinite braided tensor products of the quantum plane (or other constant Zamolodchikov algebra). It turns out that such a structure precisely describes the exchange algebra in 2D quantum gravity in the approach of Gervais. We also consider infinite braided tensor products of quantum groups and braided groups.
 Physics , 2006, DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevA.74.042334 Abstract: Hitting times are the average time it takes a walk to reach a given final vertex from a given starting vertex. The hitting time for a classical random walk on a connected graph will always be finite. We show that, by contrast, quantum walks can have infinite hitting times for some initial states. We seek criteria to determine if a given walk on a graph will have infinite hitting times, and find a sufficient condition, which for discrete time quantum walks is that the degeneracy of the evolution operator be greater than the degree of the graph. The set of initial states which give an infinite hitting time form a subspace. The phenomenon of infinite hitting times is in general a consequence of the symmetry of the graph and its automorphism group. Using the irreducible representations of the automorphism group, we derive conditions such that quantum walks defined on this graph must have infinite hitting times for some initial states. In the case of the discrete walk, if this condition is satisfied the walk will have infinite hitting times for any choice of a coin operator, and we give a class of graphs with infinite hitting times for any choice of coin. Hitting times are not very well-defined for continuous time quantum walks, but we show that the idea of infinite hitting-time walks naturally extends to the continuous time case as well.
 Physics , 2001, DOI: 10.1016/S0550-3213(01)00599-5 Abstract: We extend a recent work by Mussardo and Penati on integrable quantum field theories with a single stable particle and an infinite number of unstable resonance states, including the presence of a boundary. The corresponding scattering and reflection amplitudes are expressed in terms of Jacobian elliptic functions, and generalize the ones of the massive thermal Ising model and of the Sinh-Gordon model. In the case of the generalized Ising model we explicitly study the ground state energy and the one-point function of the thermal operator in the short-distance limit, finding an oscillating behaviour related to the fact that the infinite series of boundary resonances does not decouple from the theory even at very short-distance scales. The analysis of the generalized Sinh-Gordon model with boundary reveals an interesting constraint on the analytic structure of the reflection amplitude. The roaming limit procedure which leads to the Ising model, in fact, can be consistently performed only if we admit that the nature of the bulk spectrum uniquely fixes the one of resonance states on the boundary.
