1112.3994 (Jonathan Engle et al.)

Entropy of generic quantum isolated horizons    [PDF]

Jonathan Engle, Christopher Beetle
We review our recent proposal of a method to extend the quantization of
spherically symmetric isolated horizons, a seminal result of loop quantum
gravity, to a phase space containing horizons of arbitrary geometry. Although
the details of the quantization remain formally unchanged, the physical
interpretation of the results can be quite different. We highlight several such
differences, with particular emphasis on the physical interpretation of black
hole entropy in loop quantum gravity.
