This is a bi-lingual blog of the members of the ADAMIS team at Laboratoire APC and invited guests. We comment on selected papers and events exploring, or relevant to, the interface between physics, cosmology, applied math, statistics, and numerical algorithms and which we have found interesting.

The opinions expressed in this blog reflect those of their authors and neither that of the ADAMIS group as a whole nor of Laboratoire APC.

A loopy universe?

During the last decade, much progress have been done in the framework of so-called Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC). Since the early works of e.g. Bojowald and Ashtekar, aiming at implementating Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) ideas to the 'reduced case' of cosmology, physicists who embraced this idea are now able to derive non-singular quantum cosmological models and even to predict observational consequences for the B-mode anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave background (CMB).
