Loop quantum gravity with optimal control path integral, and application to black hole tunneling

Résumé

This paper presents a novel path integral formalism for Einstein’s theory of gravitation from the viewpoint of optimal control theory. Despite its close connection to the well-known variational principle of physicists, optimal control turns out to be more general. Within this context, a Lagrangian which is different from the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian is defined. Einstein’s field equations are recovered exactly with variations of the new action functional. The quantum theory is obtained using Ashtekar variables and the loop scalar product. As an illustrative example, the tunneling process of a black hole into another black hole or into a white hole is investigated with a toy model.
