Lorenzo Boldorini "Is Quantum Gravity detectable? Modified Black Holes from LQG."

Thursday 7 May 2026, 12:30 → 14:00 Europe/Rome

I will present a construction that aims at identifying symmetry-reduced sectors within Loop Quantum Gravity. After a brief overview of the LQG framework, I will outline how symmetric states are defined and how an effective Hamiltonian can be obtained in this sector. I will then discuss how to identify BH states and their effective dynamics, with the aim of exploring possible quantum-gravity corrections to BH signals relevant for gravitational-wave observations.
