Given a measure $\nu$ on a regular planar domain $D$, the Gaussian multiplicative chaos measure of $\nu$ studied in this paper is the random measure ${\widetilde \nu}$ obtained as the limit of the exponential of the $\gamma$-parameter…
We investigate the canonical equivalence of a matter-coupled 2D dilaton gravity theory defined by the action functional $S = \int d^2x \sqrt{-g} (R\phi + V(\phi) - 1/2 H(\phi ) (\nablaf)^2)$, and a free field theory. When the scalar field…
A number of approaches to gravitation have much in common with the gauge theories of the standard model of particle physics. In this paper, we develop the Hamiltonian formulation of a class of gravitational theories that may be regarded as…
In this work, we propose a topological quantum field theory phase for four-dimensional gravity. We show it is able to generate, not only General Relativity, but the whole family of Lovelock-Cartan theories of gravity. This is accomplished…
It is well known that for a given Poisson structure one has infinitely many star products related through the Kontsevich gauge transformations. These gauge transformations have an infinite functional dimension (i.e., correspond to an…
We consider the metric growth in Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) for $\gamma \in (0,2)$. We show that a process associated with the trace of the free field on the boundary of a filled LQG ball is stationary, for every $\gamma \in (0,2)$.…
Cylindrically reduced Einstein gravity can be regarded as an $SL(2,R)/SO(2)$ sigma model coupled to 2D dilaton gravity. By using the corresponding 2D diffeomorphism algebra of constraints and the asymptotic behaviour of the Ernst equation…
We extend the three-dimensional noncommutative relations of the positions and momenta operators to those in the four dimension. Using the Bopp shift technique, we give the Heisenberg representation of these noncommutative algebras and endow…
The statistics of low-lying zeros of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions were conjectured by Katz and Sarnak to be given by the scaling limit of eigenvalues from the unitary symplectic ensemble. The n-level densities were found to be in…
We prove the tightness of a natural approximation scheme for an analog of the Liouville quantum gravity metric on $\mathbb R^d$ for arbitrary $d\geq 2$. More precisely, let $\{h_n\}_{n\geq 1}$ be a suitable sequence of Gaussian random…
We study the Hamiltonian formulation of the generally covariant theory defined by the Lagrangian 4-form L=e_I e_J F^{IJ}(\omega) where e^I is a tetrad field and F^{IJ} is the curvature of a Lorentz connection \omega^{IJ}. This theory can be…
A system of gravity coupled to a 2-form gauge field, a dilaton and Yang-Mills fields in $2n$ dimensions arises from the (2,1) sigma model or string. The field equations imply that the curvature with torsion and Yang-Mills field strength are…
We define the quantile set of order $\alpha \in \left[ 1/2,1\right) $ associated to a law $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ to be the collection of its directional quantiles seen from an observer $O\in \mathbb{R}^{d}$. Under minimal assumptions these…
Consider the partition function S(\epsilon) associated in theory of Renyi dimension to a finite Borel measure \mu on Euclidean d-space. This partion function S(\epsilon) is the sum of the q-th powers of the measure applied to a partition of…
The gauge approach to gravity based on the local Lorentz group with a general independent affine connection A_{\mu cd} is developed. We consider SO(1,3) gauge theory with a Lagrangian quadratic in curvature as a simple model of quantum…
We study zero-free regions of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ related to an approximation problem in the weighted Dirichlet space $D_{-2}$ which is known to be equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis since the work of B\'aez-Duarte. We…
We derive source-free Maxwell-like equations in flat spacetime for any helicity "j" by comparing the transformation properties of the 2(2j+1) states that carry the manifestly covariant representations of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group with…
We consider the Lagrangian density for a free Maxwell field, in which the electromagnetic field tensor minimally couples to the affine connection, in the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity. We derive the formulae for the…
We consider a four-dimensional theory in the z=3 Lifshitz context, with an exponential (Liouville) potential. We determine the exact renormalized potential of the theory and derive the non-perturbative relation between the renormalized and…
Let $X$ be a $d$-dimensional random vector and $X_\theta$ its projection onto the span of a set of orthonormal vectors $\{\theta_1,...,\theta_k\}$. Conditions on the distribution of $X$ are given such that if $\theta$ is chosen according to…
