Topology in Fundamental Physics

In this thesis I present a mathematical tool for understanding the spin networks that arise from the study of the loop states of quantum gravity. The spin networks that arise in quantum gravity possess more information than the original spin networks of Penrose: they are embedded within a manifold a...
