Extended Tqft’s and Quantum Gravity
This paper gives a definition of an extended topological quantum field theory (TQFT) as a weak 2-functor Z : nCob2→2Vect, by analogy with the description of a TQFT as a functor Z : nCob→Vect. We also show how to obtain such a theory from any finite group G. This theory is related to a topological gauge theory, the Dijkgraaf-Witten model. To give this definition rigorously, we first define a bic...
متن کاملExtended 2d generalized dilaton gravity theories
We show that an anomaly-free description of matter in (1+1) dimensions requires a deformation of the 2d relativity principle, which introduces a non-trivial center in the 2d Poincaré algebra. Then we work out the reduced phase-space of the anomaly-free 2d relativistic particle, in order to show that it lives in a noncommutative 2d Minkowski space. Moreover, we build a Gaussian wave packet to sh...
متن کاملSelf-Gravitating Systems in Extended Gravity
Starting from the weak field limit, we discuss astrophysical applications of Extended Theories of Gravity where higher order curvature invariants and scalar fields are considered by generalizing the Hilbert-Einstein action linear in the Ricci curvature scalar R. Results are compared to General Relativity in the hypothesis that Dark Matter contributions to the dynamics can be neglected thanks to...
متن کاملGravity and Einstein-Proca-Weyl theories extended to a class of Scalar gravity theories
We extend the recently proved relation between certain models of Non-Riemannian gravitation and Einstein-Proca-Weyl theories to a class of Scalar gravity theories, this is used to present a Black-Hole Dilaton solution with non-Riemannian connection.

متن کاملExtended knots and the space of states of quantum gravity
In the loop representation the quantum constraints of gravity can be solved. This fact allowed significant progress in the understanding of the space of states of the theory. The analysis of the constraints over loop dependent wavefunctions has been traditionally based upon geometric (in contrast to analytic) properties of the loops. The reason for this preferred way is twofold: for one hand th...
