Abstract

It is argued that, using the black hole area entropy law together with the Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics and the quasinormal modes of the black holes, it is possible to determine univocally the lowest possible value for the spin j in the context of the Loop Quantum Gravity theory which is jmin=1. Consequently, the value of Immirzi parameter is given by γ=ln⁡3/(2π2). In this paper, we have shown that if we use Tsallis microcanonical entropy rather than Boltzmann-Gibbs framework then the minimum value of the label j depends on the nonextensive q-parameter and may have values other than jmin=1.

Highlights

  • Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG)[1] is a theory of quantum gravity that proposes to unify quantum field theory and general relativity

  • We have shown that if we use Tsallis microcanonical entropy rather than Boltzmann-Gibbs framework the minimum value of the label j depends on the nonextensive q-parameter and may have values other than jmin = 1

  • The Hilbert space of LQG is formed by spin networks which are graphs with edges that carry labels such as j = 0, 1/2, 1, 3/2, . . . . In LQG, the area of a given region of space has a discrete spectrum in such a way that, if a surface is intersected or punctured by the spin network edge that carries the label j, the surface carries an area element written as [2,3,4]
