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 configuration variables obtained by three-dimensional smearing of connections are not gauge covariant and are unsuitable in the non-Abelian context.

    “More precisely, the simple configuration variables in (2.2) fail to be gauge covariant and are therefore unsuitable in the non-Abelian context (unless one manages to fix the gauge completely).”
  • This representation is characterized by the fact that the holonomy is a well-defined operator in the quantum theory.

    “This representation is characterized by the fact that the holonomy is a well-defined operator in the quantum theory.”

    From Immirzi parameter in quantum general relativity (1998) · cites this paper as [6]

  • Physical and mathematical arguments indicate that this representation is relevant at the diffeomorphism-invariant and background-independent level.

    “But physical and mathematical arguments indicate that this representation is relevant at the diffeomorphism-invariant and background-independent level [6,7].”

    From Immirzi parameter in quantum general relativity (1998) · cites this paper as [6]

  • The existence of this quantization ambiguity is due to the peculiar kind of representation on which nonperturbative quantum gravity is based.

    “The existence of this quantization ambiguity is due to the peculiar kind of representation on which nonperturbative quantum gravity is based [5,6].”

    From Immirzi parameter in quantum general relativity (1998) · cites this paper as [6]

  • The computed eigenvalues agree with the numbers published by Loll.

    “Loll has computed a few of these eigenvalues in [36] using a different technique. We find agreement with the numbers published by Loll (see also [35]).”

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.
