Tóm tắt

In this paper we first provide the proof of $$\hbox {SU}(2)$$ Y-Map convergence. Then, by using $$\hbox {SU}(1,1)$$ LQG simplicity constraints, we define $$\hbox {SU}(1,1)$$ Y-Map from infinitely differentiable with a compact support functions on $$\hbox {SU}(1,1)$$ to the functions (not necessarily square integrable) on $$\hbox {SL}(2,C)$$ , and prove its convergence as well.
