We study quantum gravity in $2+\epsilon$ dimensions in such a way to preserve the volume preserving diffeomorphism invariance. In such a formulation, we prove the following trinity: the general covariance, the conformal invariance and the…
The Quantum renormalization group (QRG) is a realisation of holography through a coarse graining prescription that maps the beta functions of a quantum field theory thought to live on the `boundary' of some space to holographic actions in…
Light-Front Field Theory (LFFT) is a good candidate to describe bound states. In LFFT covariance is non-manifest. Burkardt and Langnau claim that, even for scattering amplitudes, rotational invariance is broken. We will take a different…
Modulational instabilities play a key role in a wide range of nonlinear optical phenomena, leading e.g. to the formation of spatial and temporal solitons, rogue waves and chaotic dynamics. Here we experimentally demonstrate the existence of…
Quantum general relativity may be considered as generally covariant QFT on differentiable manifolds, without any a priori metric structure. The kinematically covariance group acts by general diffeomorphisms on the manifold and by…
Using stochastic quantization method we derive gauge-invariant equations, connecting multilocal vacuum correlators of nonperturbative field configurations immersed into the quantum background. Three alternative methods of stochastic…
The formalism of nonrelativistic quantum physics was originally considered in the context of inertial frames. Here, we report on a more general framework that includes noninertial frames and arbitrarily strong gravitational fields. We…
The purpose of this Chapter is to give a general introduction and status review on the perturbative approach to quantum gravity (QG). This text is a modified version of the corresponding chapters of Part II of the recent textbook on quantum…
Stability is a key property of both forward models and inverse problems, and depends on the norms considered in the relevant function spaces. For instance, stability estimates for hyperbolic partial differential equations are often based on…
The perspective-neutral formulation of quantum reference frames (QRFs) treats observers as quantum systems and describes physics relationally from within the composite system. While frame-change maps and frame-invariant resource sums are…
The influence of a linearized perturbation on stationary inflow solutions in an inviscid and thin accretion disc, has been studied here, and it has been argued, that a perturbative technique would indicate that all possible classes of…
As part of a wider study of coherent states in (loop) quantum gravity, we introduce a modification to the standard construction, based on the recently introduced (non-commutative) flux representation. The resulting quantum states have some…
In the full nonlinear cosmological perturbation theory in the leading order of the gradient expansion, all the types of the gauge invariant perturbation variables are defined. The metric junction conditions across the spacelike transition…
While von Neumann entropies for subregions in quantum field theory universally contain ultraviolet divergences, differences between von Neumann entropies are finite and well-defined in many physically relevant scenarios. We demonstrate that…
Gravitational self-force theory is the primary way of modelling extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs). One difficulty that appears in second-order self-force calculations is the strong divergence at the worldline of the small object, which…
It is commonly accepted that the combination of quantum mechanics and general relativity gives rise to the emergence of a minimum uncertainty both in space and time. The arguments that support this conclusion are mainly based on…
We study the equivariant generalization of topological strings on toric manifolds, focusing in particular on defining the contributions of constant maps in the genus expansion of the partition function. This approach regularizes the…
We analyse the role of the crossed product and the modular (Tomita) dynamics in the transition of type $III$ to type $II_{\infty}$ v.Neumann algebras which was recently observed in papers by Witten et al. In a preceding paper we argued that…
We implement the method developed in [1] to construct the most general parametrised action for linear cosmological perturbations of bimetric theories of gravity. Specifically, we consider perturbations around a homogeneous and isotropic…
The category of quasi frames (or qframes) is introduced and studied. In the context of qframes we can jointly study problems related to the L-Surjunctivity and Stable Finiteness Conjectures. As a consequences of our main results, we can…
