Our picks for third quarter 2013 MIP (most important QG paper)

mardi 1 octobre 2013

Of the twenty candidates, please choose the one(s) you think will prove most significant for future research in Loop-and-allied quantum gravity. Since the poll is multiple choice, it's possible to vote for several papers. Abstract summaries follow in the next post.
