Synopsis Random Surface Interpretations of Two-dimensional Liouville Quantum Gravity and Yang-Mills Theory by : Minjae Park (Scientist in mathematics)
"The theory of random surfaces (or "sums over surfaces") has its historical roots in quantum gravity, string theory, statistical physics, and combinatorics. This thesis explores random surfaces in two settings: one related to Liouville quantum gravity, and one related to Euclidean Yang-Mills theory in two dimensions." "The first part introduces a specific regularization of Liouville quantum gravity surfaces. It also establishes the Polyakov-Alvarez formula on non-smooth surfaces with Brownian loops instead of the zeta-regularized Laplacian determinant. Consequently, "weighting by a Brownian loop soup" changes the so-called central charge of the regularized random surfaces, as expected in physic literature. This result justifies a definition of Liouville quantum gravity surfaces in the supercritical regime where the central charge is greater than 1." The second part describes continuum Wilson loop expectations on the plane as sums over surfaces, an example of gauge string duality. In contrast to the Gross-Taylor expansion, our weight is explicit as ±N[superscript [chi]] where [chi] is the Euler characteristic, for any gauge group U(N), SO(N), Sp(N/2). Based on the well-established continuum theory in two dimensions, we provide a probabilistic treatment for Wilson loop expectations, also leading to various applications like an alternative proof for the Makeenko-Migdal equation and a connection with a random walk on permutations.

Synopsis Colored Discrete Spaces by : Luca Lionni
This book provides a number of combinatorial tools that allow a systematic study of very general discrete spaces involved in the context of discrete quantum gravity. In any dimension D, we can discretize Euclidean gravity in the absence of matter over random discrete spaces obtained by gluing families of polytopes together in all possible ways. These spaces are then classified according to their curvature. In D=2, it results in a theory of random discrete spheres, which converge in the continuum limit towards the Brownian sphere, a random fractal space interpreted as a quantum random space-time. In this limit, the continuous Liouville theory of D=2 quantum gravity is recovered. Previous results in higher dimension regarded triangulations, converging towards a continuum random tree, or gluings of simple building blocks of small sizes, for which multi-trace matrix model results are recovered in any even dimension. In this book, the author develops a bijection with stacked two-dimensional discrete surfaces for the most general colored building blocks, and details how it can be used to classify colored discrete spaces according to their curvature. The way in which this combinatorial problem arrises in discrete quantum gravity and random tensor models is discussed in detail.

Synopsis New Paths Towards Quantum Gravity by : Bernhelm Booß-Bavnbek
Aside from the obvious statement that it should be a theory capable of unifying general relativity and quantum field theory, not much is known about the true nature of quantum gravity. New ideas - and there are many of them for this is an exciting field of research - often diverge to a degree where it seems impossible to decide in which of the many possible direction(s) the ongoing developments should be further sustained. The division of the book in two (overlapping) parts reflects the duality between the physical vision and the mathematical construction. The former is represented by tutorial reviews on non-commutative geometry, on space-time discretization and renormalization and on gauge field path integrals. The latter one by lectures on cohomology, on stochastic geometry and on mathematical tools for the effective action in quantum gravity. The book will benefit everyone working or entering the field of quantum gravity research.

Synopsis Quantum Gravity by : Bertfried Fauser
This book provides the reader with an overview of the different mathematical attempts to quantize gravity written by leading experts in this field. Also discussed are the possible experimental bounds on quantum gravity effects. The contributions have been strictly refereed and are written in an accessible style. The present volume emerged from the 2nd Blaubeuren Workshop "Mathematical and Physical Aspects of Quantum Gravity".
