15.00-17.30

Sazetak:
In this series of lectures a short introduction to quantum gravity,
mentioning different approaches,  will be given. Next, the Ponzano-Regge
model will be  introduced with enough technical details (Regge calculus,
spin networks...) so one could  give an example of explicit calculation and
sketch some important results. In the end, the relation of  the
Ponzano-Regge model to other models and approaches will be discussed.
