SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the perturbative approach in Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG), which is primarily formulated non-perturbatively. The participant inquires about the feasibility of using series expansions to calculate vacuum expectation values and whether Feynman diagrams are applicable in this context. Key references include arXiv papers 0905.4082, 1105.0566, and 1004.4550, which explore various aspects of LQG and its theoretical implications. The existence of a complete non-perturbative theory remains uncertain, as highlighted in arXiv paper 1010.5437.
