Troubles for Unimodular Gravity
We compute the contribution of various gravitational instantons to the path integral in the standard formulation of unimodular gravity, an alternative theory of gravity where the determinant of the metric is not dynamical. Following similar computations in General Relativity, we derive the entropy/area ratio for cosmological and black hole horizons, finding in general disagreement with General ...
متن کاملExact Path Integral for 3D Quantum Gravity.
Three-dimensional Euclidean pure gravity with a negative cosmological constant can be formulated in terms of the Chern-Simons theory, classically. This theory can be written in a supersymmetric way by introducing auxiliary gauginos and scalars. We calculate the exact partition function of this Chern-Simons theory by using the localization technique. Thus, we obtain the quantum gravity partition...
متن کاملNonperturbative lorentzian path integral for gravity
We construct a well-defined regularized path integral for Lorentzian quantum gravity in terms of dynamically triangulated causal space-times. Each Lorentzian geometry and its action have a unique Wick rotation to the Euclidean sector. All space-time histories possess a distinguished notion of a discrete proper time and, for finite lattice volume, the associated transfer matrix is self-adjoint, ...
متن کاملExact Path Integral Quantization of Generic 2-D Dilaton Gravity
Local path integral quantization of generic 2D dilaton gravity is considered. Locality means that we assume asymptotic fall off conditions for all fields. We demonstrate that in the absence of ‘matter’ fields to all orders of perturbation theory and for all 2D dilaton theories the quantum effective action coincides with the classical one. This resolves the apparent contradiction between the wel...
متن کاملA non-perturbative Lorentzian path integral for gravity
A well-defined regularized path integral for Lorentzian quantum gravity in three and four dimensions is constructed, given in terms of a sum over dynamically triangulated causal space-times. Each Lorentzian geometry and its associated action have a unique Wick rotation to the Euclidean sector. All space-time histories possess a distinguished notion of a discrete proper time. For finite lattice ...
