Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The simple BF measure chosen in the presentation satisfies the background independence requirements.

    “The simple BF measure chosen in the presentation of the amplitudes in the previous sections satisfies these requirements.”

    From The Spin-Foam Approach to Quantum Gravity (2013) · cites this paper as [90]

  • Second-class constraints modify the path-integral measure.

    “However, in the path integral formulation, the presence of constraints has the additional effect of modifying the weights with which those histories are to be summed: second-class constraints modify the path-integral measure (in the spin-foam context this issue was raised in [90]).”

    From The Spin-Foam Approach to Quantum Gravity (2013) · cites this paper as [90]

  • The requirement of anomaly freedom under the discrete symmetry can be met by suitable definitions of the transition amplitudes.

    “We have seen that this requirement (advocated in [90]) can be met by suitable definitions of the transition amplitudes [49, 235]”

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.
