Abstract: | There is a one-parameter quantization ambiguity in loop quantum gravity, which is called the Immirzi parameter. In this paper, we fix this free parameter by considering the quasinormal mode spectrum of black holes in four and higher spacetime dimensions. As a consequence, our result is consistent with the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy of a black hole. Moreover, we also give a possible quantum gravity explanation of the universal ln 3 behavior of the quasinormal mode spectrum. |
