Phase transition and topology in 4d simplicial gravity

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

We present data indicating that the recent evidence for the phase transition being of first order does not result from a breakdown of the ergodicity of the algorithm. We also present data showing that the thermodynamical limit of the model is independent of topology.
