This category features books on spinfoam models—the covariant, path-integral formulation of loop quantum gravity in which spacetime is modeled as a discrete “foam” of two-dimensional faces labeled by quantum spins. Titles typically cover the conceptual foundations (spin networks, 2-complexes, discrete geometry, Regge calculus), core constructions such as the Barrett–Crane and EPRL–FK models, and the mathematical machinery of representation theory and topological quantum field theory. Offerings range from pedagogical introductions and survey volumes to research monographs on transition amplitudes, renormalization and coarse-graining, semiclassical limits, and applications to cosmology and black holes. Many works also explore links to group field theory and other discrete quantum gravity programs, and are generally aimed at readers with backgrounds in general relativity and quantum field theory.
