We revisit the gravity path integral formalism of JT gravity. We explain how to gauge fix the path integral in the presence of asymptotic boundaries and conical defects, and resolve an ambiguity regarding the dilaton gravity operator that…

We proceed to study a (1+1)-dimensional dilaton gravity system with a hyperbolic dilaton potential. Introducing a couple of new variables leads to two copies of Liouville equations with two constraint conditions. In particular, in conformal…

We propose a microscopic definition of finite cut-off JT quantum gravity on the disk, both in the discretized and in the continuum points of view. The discretized formulation involves a new model of so-called self-overlapping random…

2D dilaton (super-)gravity contains a special class of solutions with constant dilaton, a kink-like solution connecting two of them was recently found in a specific model that corresponds to the KK reduced 3D Chern-Simons term. Here we…
