چکیده

The number of configurations of the dynamical triangulation model of 4D euclidean quantum gravity appears to grow faster than exponentially with the volume, with the implication that the system would end up in the crumpled phase for any fixed κ2 (inverse bare Newton constant). However, a scaling region is not excluded if we allow κ2 to go to infinity together with the volume. email: bas@phys.uva.nl email: jsmit@phys.uva.nl

Topology of Boundary Surfaces in 3D Simplicial Gravity

Recent numerical results obtained by dynamical triangulation for 3D and 4D suggest the existence of scaling behavior: for example, the number of simplexes at geodesic distance r, the fractal dimension and the volume of boundaries[1,2]. Furthermore, analytical results of 4D QG show scaling relations of the partition function[3]. The purpose here is to further explore the boundary surfaces of 3D ...

Further evidence that the transition of 4d dynamical triangulation is 1st order

We confirm recent claims that, contrary to what was generally believed, the phase transition of the dynamical triangulation model of four-dimensional quantum gravity is of first order. We have looked at this at a volume of 64, 000 four-simplices, where the evidence in the form of a double peak histogram of the action is quite clear.

Two-point functions in 4D dynamical triangulation

In the dynamical triangulation model of 4D euclidean quantum gravity we measure two-point functions of the scalar curvature as a function of the geodesic distance. To get the correlations it turns out that we need to subtract a squared one-point function which, although this seems paradoxical, depends on the distance. At the transition and in the elongated phase we observe a power law behaviour...

4D simplicial quantum gravity with a nontrivial measure.

We study 4d simplicial quantum gravity in the dynamical triangulation approach with a non-trivial class of measures. We find that the measure contribution plays an important role, influencing the phase diagram and the nature of the (possible) critical theory. We discuss how the lattice theory could be used to fix the quantum measure in a non-ambiguous

Gravitational binding in 4D dynamical triangulation

In the dynamical triangulation model of four dimensional euclidean quantum gravity we investigate gravitational binding. Two scalar test particles (quenched approximation) have a positive binding energy, thereby showing that the model can represent gravitational attraction. email: bas@astro.uva.nl email: jsmit@phys.uva.nl
