The theory of quantum fields propagating on an isotropic cosmological quantum spacetime is reexamined by generalizing the scalar test field to an electromagnetic (EM) vector field. For any given polarization of the EM field on the classical background, the Hamiltonian can be written in the form of the Hamiltonian of a set of decoupled harmonic oscillators, each corresponding to a single mode of the field. In transition from the classical to quantum spacetime background, following the technical procedure given by Ashtekar et al. [Phys. Rev. D 79, 064030 (2009)], a quantum theory of the test EM field on an effective (dressed) spacetime emerges. The nature of this emerging dressed geometry is independent of the chosen polarization, but it may depend on the energy of the corresponding field mode. Specifically, when the backreaction of the field on the quantum geometry is negligible (i.e., a test field approximation is assumed), all field modes probe the same effective background independent of the mode's energy. However, when the backreaction of the field modes on the quantum geometry is significant, by employing a Born-Oppenheimer approximation, it is shown that a rainbow (i.e., a mode-dependent) metric emerges. The emergence of this mode-dependent background in the Planck regime may have a significant effect on the creation of quantum particles. The production amount on the dressed background is computed and is compared with the familiar results on the classical geometry.

Using the Gauss-Bonnet formula, integral of the Gaussian curvature over a 2-surface enclosed by a curve in the asymptotically flat region of a static spacetime was found to be a measure of a gravitational analogue of Aharonov-Bohm effect by Ford and Vilenkin in the linearized regime.Employing the 1+3 formulation of spacetime decomposition we study the same effect in the context of full Einstein field equations for stationary spacetimes. Applying our approach to static tube-like and cylindrical distributions of dust not only we recover their result but also obtain an extra term which is interpreted to be representing the classical version of the Colella-Overhauser-Werner effect (the COW experiment). * Electronic address: nouri@khayam.ut.ac.ir, corresponding author † Electronic address: a.parvizi@ut.ac.ir

Introducing the well known Papapetrou field as the gravitoelectromagnetic field tensor, we express the Maxwell-type part of the 3-dimensional quasi-Maxwell form of the vacuum Einstein field equations in terms of differential forms, analogous to their electromagnetic counterparts in curved spacetimes. Using the same formalism we introduce the junction conditions on non-null hypersurfaces in terms of the introduced gravitoelectromagnetic 4-vector fields and apply them to the case of the Van Stockum interior and exterior solutions. * Electronic address: nouri@ut.ac.ir, corresponding author † Electronic address: a.parvizi@ut.ac.ir

We compute the expected response of detector arms of gravitational wave observatories to polymerized gravitational waves. The mathematical and theoretical features of these waves were discussed in our previous work. In the present manuscript, we find both perturbative analytical, and full nonperturbative numerical solutions to the equations of motion of the detector arms using the method of geodesic deviations. These results show the modifications to both frequency and amplitude of the signal measured by the detector. Furthermore, we study the detectability of these signals in LISA by analyzing the modes in the frequency space.
