In this paper we investigate the properties of gauge-invariant coherent states for Loop Quantum Gravity, for the gauge group U(1). This is done by projecting the corresponding complexifier coherent states, which have been applied in…
In Liouville quantum gravity (or $2d$-Gaussian multiplicative chaos) one seeks to define a measure $\mu^h = e^{\gamma h(z)} dz$ where $h$ is an instance of the Gaussian free field on a planar domain $D$. Since $h$ is a distribution, not a…
We explore the possibility of a consistent cosmology based on the gauge-fixing independent running of the gravitational and cosmological constants ($G$ and $\Lambda$) in the framework of effective quantum gravity. In particular, their…
Stochastic Loewner Evolution (SLE_kappa) has been introduced as a description of the continuum limit of cluster boundaries in two-dimensional critical systems. We show that the problem of N radial SLEs in the unit disc is equivalent to…
The problem of existence and uniqueness of absolutely continuous invariant measures for a class of piecewise deterministic Markov processes is investigated using the theory of substochastic semigroups obtained through the Kato--Voigt…
We study canonical conformal gravity in four dimensions and construct the gauge generators and the associated charges. Using slightly generalized boundary conditions compared to those in \cite{Grumiller:2013mxa} we find that the charges…
In statistical mechanics, observables are usually related to local degrees of freedom such as the Q < 4 distinct states of the Q-state Potts models or the heights of the restricted solid-on-solid models. In the continuum scaling limit,…
We prove that, for $\kappa\le 4$, backward chordal SLE$_\kappa$ admits backward chordal SLE$_\kappa(-4,-4)$ decomposition for the capacity parametrization. This means that, for any bounded measurable subset $U\subset Q_4:={\mathbb…
In this paper for each cardinal $\kappa$ we construct an infinite $\kappa$-bounded (and hence countably compact) regular space $R_{\kappa}$ such that for any $T_1$ space $Y$ of pseudo-character $\leq\kappa$, each continuous function…
Let $\nu$ be a vector measure defined on a $\sigma$-algebra $\Sigma$ and taking values in a Banach space. We prove that if $\nu$ is homogeneous and $L_1(\nu)$ is non-separable, then there is a vector measure $\tilde{\nu}:\Sigma \to…
Given positive integers $d\geq\kappa$, and a subset $\Gamma\subset [0,1]$, let $\mathrm{Ivol}_{\mathrm{lc}}^{\Gamma}(d,\kappa)$ denote the set of Iitaka volumes of $d$-dimensional projective log canonical pairs $(X, B)$ such that the…
We prove that on any compact manifold $M^n$ with boundary, there exist a conformal class $C$ such that for any riemannian metric $g\in C$, $\lambda_1(M^n,g)Vol(M^n,g)^{2/n}< n.Vol(S^n,g_{\textrm{can}})^{2/n}$ and $\sigma_1(M,g,\rho)\mathcal…
The quantization problem for random fractals presents unique challenges due to the lack of uniform geometric scaling inherent in deterministic systems. In this article, we establish the almost sure quantization dimension for a class of…
In this article, we generalize to the case of measured quantum groupoids on a finite basis some important results concerning equivariant Kasparov theory for actions of locally compact quantum groups [S. Baaj and G. Skandalis, 1989, 1993].…
The most important part of the new spin-foam loop quantum gravity formulation is the map $Y$: $H^{SU(2)} \rightarrow H^{SL(2,C)}$. It was only recently shown that the Y-Map is convergent in spite of the fact that the classical Peter-Weyl…
We prove that for each $\gamma \in (0,2)$, there is an exponent $d_\gamma > 2$, the "fractal dimension of $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG)", which describes the ball volume growth exponent for certain random planar maps in the…
We show that $\kappa$-Poincar\'e invariant gauge theories on $\kappa$-Minkowski space with physically acceptable commutative (low energy) limit must be 5-d. The gauge invariance requirement of the action fixes the dimension of the…
We investigate the automorphisms of some $\kappa$- existentially closed groups. In particular, we prove that $Aut(G)$ is the union of subgroups of level preserving automorphisms and $|Aut(G)|=2^{\kappa}$ whenever $\kappa$ is inaccessible…
In this paper we prove that the set of metrics conformal to the standard metric on $\mathbb{S}^{n}\backslash\{p_{1},\cdots,p_{l}\}$ is locally compact in $C^{m,\alpha}$ topology for any $m>0$, whenever the metrics have constant $\sigma_{k}$…
