Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT) is a non-perturbative quantisation of general relativity. Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity on the other hand modifies general relativity to allow for perturbative quan- tisation. Past work has given rise to…
We study the continuum limit of a "radially reduced" approximation of Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT), so-called multigraph ensembles, and explain why they serve as realistic toy models to study the dimensional reduction observed in…

We provide compelling evidence that a previously introduced model of non-perturbative 2d Lorentzian quantum gravity exhibits (two-dimensional) flat-space behaviour when coupled to Ising spins. The evidence comes from both a high-temperature…
While the Ising model remains essential to understand physical phenomena, its natural connection to combinatorial reasoning makes it also one of the best models to probe complex systems in science and engineering. We bring a computational…
The two-dimensional Ising model of a ferromagnet allows for many ways of computing its partition function and other properties. Each way reveals surprising features of what we might call Ising Matter. Moreover, the various ways would appear…
We discuss how concepts such as geodesic length and the volume of space-time can appear in 2d topological gravity. We then construct a detailed mapping between the reduced Hermitian matrix model and 2d topological gravity at genus zero.…

We introduce a one dimensional spin $\frac{1}{2}$ Hamiltonian with multi-site interactions, but still local. The algebra of its Hamiltonian densities resembles that of the transverse field Ising model. Using this fact we show that its…
The Ising model in two dimensions with special toroidal boundary conditions is analyzed. These boundary condition, which we call duality twisted boundary conditions, may be interpreted as inserting a specific defect line ("seam") in the…
Recently, it has been found that JT gravity, which is a two-dimensional theory with bulk action $ -\frac{1}{2}\int {\mathrm d}^2x \sqrt g\phi(R+2)$, is dual to a matrix model, that is, a random ensemble of quantum systems rather than a…
We derive the loop equations for the d-dimensional n-Hermitian matrix model. These are a consequence of the Schwinger-Dyson equations of the model. Moreover we show that in leading order of large $N$ the loop equations form a closed set. In…
We review recent progress in 2D gravity coupled to $d<1$ conformal matter, based on a representation of discrete gravity in terms of random matrices. We discuss the saddle point approximation for these models, including a class of related…
