Quantum cosmology from quantum gravity condensates: cosmological variables and lattice-refined dynamics

In the context of group field theory condensate cosmology, we clarify the extraction of cosmological variables from the microscopic quantum gravity degrees of freedom. We show that an important implication of the second quantized formalism is the dependence of cosmological variables and equations on...
