This paper pushes forward a conjecture made in [1] that a high-temperature double-scaled limit of the SYK model ($\mathrm{DSSYK}_{\infty}$) describes a de Sitter-like space. We identify a specific bulk theory which we conjecture to be dual…
It has long been understood that certain theories of ghost free massive gravity and their multi-graviton extensions can be thought of as arising from a higher dimensional theory of gravity, upon discretising the extra dimension. However,…
This paper considers the possibility that, starting from a relativistic Hermitian quantum field theory in the ultraviolet (UV) regime, and applying a non-perturbative renormalization-group (RG) flow, we arrive at a situation where there are…
We present a field theory description for the non-perturbative splitting and joining of baby universes in Euclidean Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity. We show how the gravitational path integral, defined as a sum over topologies, can be…
In this letter, we show that Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity can be naturally realized in the Karch-Randall braneworld. Notably the role of the dilaton in JT gravity is played by the radion in a suitably orbifolded version of the setup. In…
We study a Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) supergravity theory, defined as an Euclidean path integral over orientable supermanifolds with constant negative curvature, that was argued by Stanford and Witten to be captured by a random matrix model in…
This is the first part of an investigation concerning the formulation of 2D gravity in the framework of the uniformization theory of Riemann surfaces. As a first step in this direction we show that the classical Liouville action appears in…
This contribution is not intended as a review but, by suggestion of the editors, as a glimpse ahead into the realm of dually weighted tensor models for quantum gravity. This class of models allows one to consider a wider class of quantum…
Gradient Flow Exact Renormalization Group (GF-ERG) is a framework to define the renormalization group flow of Wilsonian effective action utilizing coarse-graining along the diffusion equations. We apply it for Scalar Quantum Electrodynamics…
The functional renormalisation group for the Einstein-Hilbert action is investigated for the case of four infinite (or large) and one compact dimension. The motivation for this study is given by the suggestion that gravity in more than four…
Large-$N$ renormalization group equations for one- and two-matrix models are derived. The exact renormalization group equation involving infinitely many induced interactions can be rewritten in a form that has a finite number of coupling…
Renormalisation Group (RG) flows in theory space (the space of couplings) are generated by a vector field -- the $\beta$ function. Using a specific metric ansatz in theory space and certain methods employed largely in the context of General…

We show that the partition function of quantum Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity, including topological fluctuations, is equivalent to the partition function of a Maass-Laplace operator of large -- imaginary -- weight acting on non-compact,…
It is well known that one can parameterize 2-D Riemannian structures by conformal transformations and diffeomorphisms of fiducial constant curvature geometries; and that this construction has a natural setting in general relativity theory…

The curvature-squared model of gravity, in the affine form proposed by Weyl and Yang, is deduced from a topological action in 4D. More specifically, we start from the Pontrjagin (or Euler) invariant. Using the BRST antifield formalism with…
We construct the most general theory of 2D Einstein-dilaton gravity coupled with $U(1)$ gauge fields that contains all the 2-derivative and the 4-derivative interactions allowed by the diffeomorphism invariance. We renormalise the 2D action…
