چکیده
Permanent address: Institute of Physics, Jagellonian University, ul. Reymonta 4, 30-059 Kraków, Poland Laboratoire associé au CNRS. whether this finding does not reflect a deficiency of the simulation set-up. As it is an important question, we have decided to check it in more detail. The result of this investigation is presented in sect. 2 of this communication. In sect. 3 we also present some results on the behaviour of the model in other topologies.

The phase transition of 4D simplicial quantum gravity coupled to U (1) gauge fields is studied using Monte-Carlo simulations. The phase transition of the dynamical triangulation model with vector field (NV = 1) is smooth as compared with the pure gravity(NV = 0). The node susceptibility (χ) is studied in the finite size scaling method. At the critical point, the node distribution has a sharp pe...

The geometry of 4D simplicial quantum gravity with a U(1) gauge field is studied numerically. The phase diagram shows a continuous transition when gravity is coupled with a U(1) gauge field. At the critical point measurements of the curvature distribution of S 4 space shows an inflated geometry with homogeneous and symmetric nature. Also, by choosing a 4-simplex and fixing the scalar curvature ...
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 کاملCollapse of 4D random geometries
We extend the analysis of the Backgammon model to an ensemble with a fixed number of balls and a fluctuating number of boxes. In this ensemble the model exhibits a first order phase transition analogous to the one in higher dimensional simplicial gravity. The transition relies on a kinematic condensation and reflects a crisis of the integration measure which is probably a part of the more gener...
