Abstract:In canonical quantum gravity asymptotically trivial diffeomorphisms not deformable to the identity can act nontrivially on the quantum state space. We show that for many 3-manifolds, the inequivalent diffeomorphisms comprise coverings in SU(2) of crystallographic groups. When the diffeomorphism R associated with 2π-rotation is nontrivial, state vectors can have half-integral angular momentum; we list all 3-manifolds with R trivial.
