Article Description

We fully solve the quantum geometry of Zn as a polygon graph with arbitrary metric square-lengths on the edges, finding a-preserving quantum Levi-Civita connection which is unique for n ≠ 4. As a first application, we numerically compute correlation functions for Euclideanised quantum gravity on Zn for small n.We then study an FLRWmodel on R × Zn, finding the same expansion rate as for the classical flat FLRW model in 1 + 2 dimensions.We also look at particle creation on R × Zn and find an additional m = 0 adiabatic no particle creation expansion as well as the particle creation spectrum for a smoothed step expansion.
