Boundary conditions, black holes and the Duflo map in LQG — •Thomas Zilker and Hanno Sahlmann — FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg

This talk will focus on the boundary condition satisfied by spherically symmetric isolated horizons in their SU(2)-invariant formulation. After briefly discussing its geometric interpretation, I will then present an approach to quantize this boundary condition in the framework of loop quantum gravity. The Duflo map provides a possible solution to the ordering ambiguities occurring in this approach.
