background-independent quantization of general relativity using holonomies of a connection, giving discrete area and volume.

In gravitational physics, loop quantum gravity refers to background-independent quantization of general relativity using holonomies of a connection, giving discrete area and volume. This meaning comes from Rovelli (1990) in Nuclear Physics B.[1]
