Controlling quantum critical phenomena in strongly correlated electron systems, which emerge in the neighborhood of a quantum phase transition, is a major challenge in modern condensed matter physics. Quantum critical phenomena are…
The Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity with the matter degrees of freedom is considered. The classical model is exactly solvable and its solutions describe non-trivial gravitational scattering of matter wave-packets. For huge amount of the solutions…
When the gauge group of a theory has infinite volume, defining the inner product on physical states becomes subtle. This is the case for gravity, even in exactly solvable models such as minisuperspace or low-dimensional theories: the…
There exist several different proposals for a measure in Quantum Gravity theories. Although sometimes being labelled as non covariant, the measure derived in [7] for GR has the particularity that, in the extremal, the volume divergences…
We investigate the critical behaviour of the two-dimensional Ising model defined on a curved surface with a constant negative curvature. Finite-size scaling analysis reveals that the critical exponents for the zero-field magnetic…
Quantum criticality in the presence of strong quenched randomness remains a challenging topic in modern condensed matter theory. We show that the topology and anomaly associated with average symmetry can be used to predict certain…
We find candidate macroscopic gravity duals for scale-invariant but non-Lorentz invariant fixed points, which do not have particle number as a conserved quantity. We compute two-point correlation functions which exhibit novel behavior…
The Higgs-Yukawa model in curved spacetime (renormalizable in the usual sense) is considered near the critical point, employing the $1/N$--expansion and renormalization group techniques. By making use of the equivalence of this model with…
We present a comprehensive and technically rigorous analysis of the status of Birkhoff's theorem in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity, a paradigmatic two-dimensional model for studying semiclassical gravitational dynamics. While Birkhoff's…
It is well known that Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity posses the simplest theory on 2-dimensional gravity. The model has been fruitfully studied in recent years. In the present work, we investigate exact solutions for both JT and deformed JT…
We analyze the correlation function in JT gravity using three approaches: by summing over all geodesics connecting boundary operators, integrating over the region of moduli space determined by the ``no-shortcut condition'' introduced by…
The $\pm J$ Ising model is a simple frustrated spin model, where the exchange couplings independently take the discrete value $-J$ with probability $p$ and $+J$ with probability $1-p$. It is especially appealing due to its connection to…
In this work we investigate the behavior of two-dimensional (2D) cosmological models, starting with the Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) theory of gravitation. A geometrical term, non-linear in the scalar curvature $R$, is added to the JT dynamics to…
Two replicas of a 2D Ising model are coupled by frustrated spin-spin interactions. It is known that this inter-layer coupling is marginal and that the bulk critical behavior belongs to the Ashkin-Teller (AT) universality class, as the…
We consider critical gravity as van Dam-Vletman-Zakharov (vDVZ) discontinuity in anti de Sitter space. For this purpose, we introduce the higher curvature gravity. This discontinuity can be confirmed by calculating the residues of relevant…
We introduce a universal criterion for criticality in mean-field rotor Hamiltonians based on the geometric structure of the constant-energy shell. Rather than characterizing the onset of a phase transition through the conventional…
We present a thermodynamic analysis of spherically symmetric gravitational collapse. Using the Hayward-Kodama formalism, we treat a collapsing sphere as a thermodynamic system and express the surface gravity $\kappa_{hk}$ in terms of the…
Recently, it was argued that charged Anti-de Sitter (AdS) black holes admit critical behavior, without extending phase space, similar to the Van der Waals fluid system in the $Q^2-\Psi$ plans where $\Psi=1/v$ (the conjugate of $Q^2$) is the…
We study the gravitational edge modes (GrEMs) and gauge edge modes (GaEMs) in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity on a wiggling boundary. The wiggling effect manifests as a series of spacetime topological and bulk constraints for both conical…
Quantum geometrodynamics is canonical quantum gravity with the three-metric as the configuration variable. Its central equation is the Wheeler--DeWitt equation. Here I give an overview of the status of this approach. The issues discussed…
