Description
The talk concerns the current status of matter fields in the framework of loop quantum gravity, with an emphasis on the recent developments. The presentation will particularly focus on the r-Fock representations and their relation to the standard loop representations, in light of the recent generalization of the construction of r-Fock measures to SU(N) gauge theories, and how one could try bridging the gap between quantum field theory on Minkowski spacetime and the background independent framework of loop quantum gravity.
