Spin Foam Models for Quantum Gravity
by Alejandro Perez
Publisher: arXiv 2003
Number of pages: 80
Description:
In this article we review the present status of the spin foam formulation of non-perturbative (background independent) quantum gravity. In the first part we present a general introduction to the main ideas emphasizing their motivations from various perspectives.

Quantum Einstein Gravity
by Martin Reuter, Frank Saueressig - arXiv
We give a pedagogical introduction to the basic ideas and concepts of the Asymptotic Safety program in Quantum Einstein Gravity. Using the continuum approach based upon the effective average action, we summarize the state of the art of the field.
