Focusing on the Fixed Point of 4d Simplicial Gravity
Our earlier renormalization group study of simplicial gravity is extended and the evidence for the existence of an isolated ultra-violet fixed point is strengthened. A high statistics study of the volume and coupling constant dependence of the cumulants of the node distribution is carried out. It appears that the phase transition of the theory is of first order, contrary to what is generally be...
متن کاملTopology in 4d Simplicial Quantum Gravity
We simulate 4d simplicial gravity for three topologies S, S S and S S S S and show that the free energy for these three xed topology ensembles is the same in the thermodynamic limit N4 !1. We show, that the next-to-leading order corrections, at least away from the critical point, can be described by kinematic sources.
متن کاملSimulating 4D Simplicial Gravity including Degenerate Triangulations
We extend simulations of simplicial gravity in four dimensions to include degenerate triangulations and demonstrate that using this ensemble the geometric finite-size effects are much reduced. We provide strong numerical evidence for the existence of an exponential bound on the entropy of the model and establish that the phase structure is identical to that of a corresponding model restricted t...
متن کاملScaling Behavior in 4D Simplicial Quantum Gravity
Scaling relations in four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity are proposed using the concept of the geodesic distance. Based on the analogy of a loop length distribution in the two-dimensional case, the scaling relations of the boundary volume distribution in four dimensions are discussed in three regions: the strong-coupling phase, the critical point and the weak-coupling phase. In each pha...
متن کاملSingular Structure in 4D Simplicial Gravity
We show that the phase transition previously observed in dynamical triangulation models of quantum gravity can be understood as being due to the creation of a singular link. The transition between singular and non-singular geometries as the gravitational coupling is varied appears to be first order. Dynamical triangulations (DT) furnish a powerful approach to the problem of defining and studyin...
