[QUOTE="Lutz-F, post: 6431383, member: 684665"] Thanks for your advice. I should have continued studying mathematics instead of economics... :biggrin: So it seems that Carlo Rovelli has been a little bit vague and optimistic in describing the part of the theory that relates to the curvature of spacetime. He wrote in the above mentioned book that in the spin network a loop is formed by following the links from node to node back to the starting node. The direction of an arrow that has been moved in a loop provides information about the curvature of spacetime. The mathematics of the theory determines the curvature for each closed loop in the graph. This allows the curvature of spacetime and thus the strength of the gravitational field to be estimated. I am curious how the LQG will develop further. And maybe I'll get some more information about LQG and the beginning of our universe too. [/QUOTE]
