Eugenio Bianchi is an Italian theoretical physicist and assistant professor at the Pennsylvania State University who works on loop quantum gravity and black hole thermodynamics. He has derived the Bekenstein-Hawking formula ${\displaystyle S={\frac {A}{4}}}$ for the entropy of non-extremal black holes from loop quantum gravity, ^{[1] [2]} for all values of the Immirzi parameter.
