Quantum Gravity, Random Geometry and Critical Phenomena
We discuss the theory of non-critical strings with extrinsic curvature embedded in a target spac d greater than one. We emphasize the analogy between 2d gravity coupled to matter and non liquid-like membranes with bending rigidity. We rst outline the exact solution for strings in dime via the double scaling limit of matrix models and then discuss the diiculties of an extension to d > from recen...
متن کاملDamaging 2D Quantum Gravity
We investigate numerically the behaviour of damage spreading in a Kauffman cellular automaton with quenched rules on a dynamical φ graph, which is equivalent to coupling the model to discretized 2D gravity. The model is interesting from the cellular automaton point of view as it lies midway between a fully quenched automaton with fixed rules and fixed connectivity and a (soluble) fully annealed...
متن کاملQuenching 2D Quantum Gravity
We simulate the Ising model on a set of fixed random φ graphs, which corresponds to a quenched coupling to 2D gravity rather than the annealed coupling that is usually considered. We investigate the critical exponents in such a quenched ensemble and compare them with measurements on dynamical φ graphs, flat lattices and a single fixed φ graph. Submitted to Phys Lett B. 1 Address: Sept. 1993 199...
متن کاملLoops in 2d Quantum Gravity*
ADRIAN R. COOPER Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Stanford University, Stanford, California 94309 ABSTRACT We argue that existing discussions of discretised random surfaces with boundaries are incomplete, and give the correct versions for Kazakov’s multicritical models. This leads to the calculation of self-avoiding loops on the surfaces, and uncovers a new type of phase transition. Applying ...
متن کاملA New Perspective on Matter Coupling in 2d Quantum Gravity
We provide compelling evidence that a previously introduced model of non-perturbative 2d Lorentzian quantum gravity exhibits (two-dimensional) flat-space behaviour when coupled to Ising spins. The evidence comes from both a high-temperature expansion and from Monte Carlo simulations of the combined gravity-matter system. This weak-coupling behaviour lends further support to the conclusion that ...
