The scalar product defined in this way is precisely the one defined on the loop representation by the loop transform of the Ashtekar-Lewandowski measure, namely the conventional Haar measure lattice gauge theory scalar product for each graph.
“We think that the scalar product defined in this way is precisely the one defined on the loop representation by the loop transform [3,4] of the Ashtekar-Lewandowski measure [53], namely the conventional Haar measure lattice gauge theory scalar product for each graph.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
