The exploration of the universe has recently entered a new era thanks to the multi-
messenger paradigm, characterized by a continuous increase in the quantity and quality of …

Dynamical black-hole scenarios have been developed in loop quantum gravity in various
ways, combining results from mini and midisuperspace models. In the past, the underlying …

This Chapter provides an up to date, pedagogical review of some of the most relevant
advances in loop quantum cosmology. We review the quantization of homogeneous …

We review the present status of quantum-gravity phenomenology in relation to gravitational
waves (GWs). The topic can be approached from two directions, a model-dependent one …

Among all cosmological quantum-gravity or quantum-gravity-inspired scenarios, only very
few predict a blue-tilted primordial tensor spectrum. We explore five of them and check …

We consider the modified Einstein equations obtained in the framework of effective
spherically symmetric polymer models inspired by loop quantum gravity. When one takes …

The evolutions of the flat Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker universe and its linear
perturbations are studied systematically in the dressed metric approach of loop quantum …

We study the Hamiltonian formulation of the Ashtekar-Olmedo-Singh model for the
description of the interior geometry of nonrotating, uncharged black holes. This model …

The Planck collaboration has provided us rich information about the early Universe, and a
host of new observational missions will soon shed further light on the'anomalies' that appear …

We consider cosmological perturbations around homogeneous and isotropic spacetimes
minimally coupled to a scalar field and present a formulation which is designed to preserve …
