Seminario: «When partitions are not enough. Study of the spectrum of the area operator»

The area operator, that appears in the context of Loop Quantum Gravity, has as eigenvalues all possible numbers of the form \[\sum_{i=1}^n \sqrt{n_i(n_i+2)\] for some natural numbers $n_i$. Several approximate methods have been proposed along the years to study the distribution of these eigenvalues. They rely on approximations to get rid of the square root…
