Spin foam model for Lorentzian general relativity

Spin foam model for Lorentzian general relativity

We present a spin foam formulation of Lorentzian quantum general relativity. The theory is based on a simple generalization of a Euclidean model defined in terms of a field theory over a group. Its vertex amplitude turns out to be the one recently introduced by Barrett and Crane. As in …
