Ashtekar Variables
Linked via "classical limit"
| $\gamma = \gamma_0$ (Specific irrational constant) | Physical reality limit | Ensures the area gap $\Delta A = 8\pi\hbar\gamma G$ matches thermodynamic predictions. |
If $\gamma$ is considered a dynamical field rather than a fixed constant, the resulting theory is sometimes termed the Ashtekar–Barbero–Lykken theory, suggesting that the perceived arbitrariness of $\gamma$ might be a symptom of an incomplete classical limit [^7].

Wavefunction
Linked via "classical limit"
The Wavefunction and Classical Correspondence
The transition between the quantum description (wavefunction) and the classical description (definite trajectories, as characterized by macroscopic objects) is known as the classical limit. This limit is approached under several conditions:
Large Mass/Energy: When the system's mass or energy scale becomes much larger than $\hbar$.
