Loop Quantum Gravity
by Thomas Thiemann
Publisher: arXiv 2006
Number of pages: 58
Description:
This is a (relatively) non-technical summary of the status of the quantum dynamics in Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG). We explain in detail the historical evolution of the subject and why the results obtained so far are non-trivial.

Canonical Transformations in Quantum Mechanics
by Arlen Anderson - arXiv
Quantum canonical transformations are defined algebraically. This generalizes the quantum canonical transformations to include non-unitary transformations. Their importance for constructing solutions of the Schroedinger equation is discussed.
