The correlation functions for models of minimal gravity are discussed. An algorithm is proposed for calculations of invariant ratios from formulas of residues that can be compared with the coefficients of expansion of the partition function…
The theory of embedded random surfaces, equivalent to two--dimensional quantum gravity coupled to matter, is reviewed, further developed and partly generalized to four dimensions. It is shown that the action of the Liouville field theory…
We present a (mathematically rigorous) probabilistic and geometrical proof of the KPZ relation between scaling exponents in a Euclidean planar domain D and in Liouville quantum gravity. It uses the properly regularized quantum area measure…
The three-point functions for minimal models coupled to gravity are derived in the operator approach to Liouville theory which is based on its $U_q(sl(2))$ quantum group structure. The result is shown to agree with matrix-model calculations…
A Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) surface is a natural random two-dimensional surface, initially formulated as a random measure space and later as a random metric space. We show that the LQG measure can be recovered as the Minkowski measure…
The shifted-i expansion technique (SLET) is extended to solve for Dirac particle trapped in spherically symmetric scalar and/or 4-vector potentials. A parameter {\lambda}=0,1 is introduced in such a way that one can obtain the Klein-Gordon…
The Fokker-Planck equation can be reformulated as a continuity equation, which naturally suggests using the associated velocity field in particle flow methods. While the resulting probability flow ODE offers appealing properties - such as…
We consider a singular Sturm-Liouville expression with the indefinite weight sgn x. To this expression there is naturally a self-adjoint operator in some Krein space associated. We characterize the local definitizability of this operator in…
Because of the nonlocal properties of fractional operators, higher order schemes play more important role in discretizing fractional derivatives than classical ones. The striking feature is that higher order schemes of fractional…
In this letter, we discuss the Wheeler-DeWitt equation with an ordering parameter in the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe. The solutions when the universe was very small and at the end of the expansion are obtained in terms of Bessel and…
A decay of weakly metastable phase coupled to two-dimensional Liouville gravity is considered in the semiclassical approximation. The process is governed by the ``critical swelling'', where the droplet fluctuation favors a gravitational…
We develop a Logvinenko--Sereda theory for one-dimensional vector-valued self-adjoint operators. We thus deliver upper bounds on $L^2$-norms of eigenfunctions -- and linear combinations thereof -- in terms of their $L^2$- and…
The correspondence between the semiclassical limit of the DOZZ quantum Liouville theory and the Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit of the N = 2 (Omega-deformed) U(2) super-Yang-Mills theories is used to calculate the unknown accessory parameter of…
We consider the two dimensional Jackiw-Teitelboim model of gravity. We first couple the model to the Liouville action and $c$ scalar fields and show, treating the combined system as a non linear sigma model, that the resulting theory can be…
Liouville conformal field theory is considered with conformal boundary. There is a family of conformal boundary conditions parameterized by the boundary cosmological constant, so that observables depend on the dimensional ratios of boundary…
We study scaling and renormalization in two dimensional quantum gravity in a covariant framework. After reviewing the definition of a proper path integral measure, we use scaling arguments to rederive the KPZ relations, the fractal…
We propose a precise duality between pure de Sitter quantum gravity in 2+1 dimensions and a double-scaled matrix integral. This duality unfolds in two distinct aspects. First, by carefully quantizing the gravitational phase space, we arrive…
Several lines of evidence hint that quantum gravity at very small distances may be effectively two-dimensional. I summarize the evidence for such ``spontaneous dimensional reduction,'' and suggest an additional argument coming from the…
We study the connection between Zamolodchikov operator-valued relations in Liouville field theory and in the SL(2,R)_k WZNW model. In particular, the classical relations in SL(2,R)_k can be formulated as a classical Liouville hierarchy in…
In this work, a minisuperspace model for the projectable Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz (HL) gravity without the detailed balance condition is investigated. The Wheeler-deWitt equation is derived and its solutions are studied and discussed for some…
