Description

I will review some older results on counting states and calculating the entropy of isolated horizons in loop quantum gravity in the presence of charges/matter fields on the horizon. One question that I will answer at least partially in some examples is if the matter DOF contribute to the entropy, and if so, to what order.
I will also briefly touch on some newer results and work in progress for state counting for surfaces in supergravity.
