Improvements: work in progress

We can improve our calculation scheme and evaluate the semiclassical limit

  • f the euclidean scalar constraint in the (more realistic) case of a six-

valence node.

The final result at each node is just the sum of the three-valence one over all the possible permutations of links, while ε's coincide now with the lattice spacing (no dressing).

By peaking around a homogeneous configuration one gets: where we assumed # nodes within fiducial volume

The parameters ε's and δ's are semiclassical parameters: they enter the definition of semiclassical states, ε being the length of the links of the additional plaquette, δ the area of the surfaces across which fluxes are defined. The choice of δ=δ(p) determines the regularization scheme adopted in the corresponding LQC scenario.
