Loop quantum gravity in higher dimensions and black hole entropy — •Norbert Bodendorfer — IFT UW, Warschau, Polen

A reformulation of higher-dimensional gravity theories is discussed which allows for the application of the loop quantum gravity program. To this end, a Hamiltonian formulation of the gravity theory has to be given on a Yang-Mills phase space such that the Yang-Mills gauge group is compact, the Poisson brackets are canonical, the variables are real and the theory is only subject to first class constraints. The computation of black hole entropy is discussed as an application.
