We develop the quantum theory of a scalar field on LQC Bianchi I geometry. In particular, we focus on single modes of the field: the evolution equation is derived from the quantum scalar constraint, and it is shown that the same equation can be obtained from QFT on an "classical" effective geometry. We investigate the dependence of this effective space-time on the wavevector of the mode (which could in principle generate a deformation in local Lorentz-symmetry), focusing our attention on the dispersion relation. We prove that when we disregard backreaction no Lorentz-violation is present, despite the effective metric being different than the classical Bianchi I one. A preliminary analysis of the correction due to inclusion of backreaction is briefly discussed in the context of Born-Oppenheimer approximation.

  1. Prism Effect in Quantum Gravity

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    Electromagnetic backreaction on quantum geometry in LQC makes the photon group velocity mode-dependent and subluminal, a 'prism effect' that vanishes at low energies.

  2. Prism Effect in Quantum Gravity

    gr-qc 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Extended Born-Oppenheimer coupling of the EM field to quantum geometry yields chromatic dispersion of light—a prism effect proposed as an all-energy quantum-gravity probe on a quantum FLRW background.
