Group field theory is an ambitious framework in which theories of quantum geometry are formulated, incorporating successful ideas from the fields of matrix models, ten-sor models, spin foam models and loop quantum gravity, as well as from the broader areas of quantum field theory and mathematical physics. This special issue collects recent work in group field theory and these related approaches, as well as other neighbouring fields (e.g., cosmology, quantum information and quantum foundations, statistical physics) to the extent that these are directly relevant to quantum gravity research.Mathematics & sciencebicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscadiabatic vacuabackground independenceblack holesBogoliubov transformationbouncing cosmologycomputer simulationscosmological perturbation theorydiscrete quantum gravity modelseffective field theoryentropygeneralised statistical equilibriumgroup field theoryholographic entanglementhypersurface deformation algebraLewis-Riesenfeld invariantlimiting curvatureloop quantum cosmologyloop quantum gravityLQC instantonmimetic gravityno-boundary proposalnonperturbative renormalization groupnumerical methodsquantum computingquantum cosmologyquantum geometryquantum gravityquantum many-body physicsquantum-gravity phenomenologyrandom geometryrandom tensor networksrenormalization groupSpin networksvertex amplitudesMathematics & scienceResearch & information: generalGielen Steffenedt1322511Carrozza SylvainedtOriti DanieleedtGielen SteffenothCarrozza SylvainothOriti DanieleothBOOK9910557580403321Progress in Group Field Theory and Related Quantum Gravity Formalisms3035102UNINA
