We study the quantum mechanical Liouville model with attractive potential which is obtained by Hamiltonian symmetry reduction from the system of a free particle on $SL(2, \Real)$. The classical reduced system consists of a pair of Liouville…

We define a three-dimensional quantum theory of gravity as the holographic dual of the Liouville conformal field theory. The theory is consistent and unitary by definition. The corresponding theory of gravity with negative cosmological…
The quantum discrete Liouville model in the strongly coupled regime, 1<c<25, is formulated as a well defined quantum mechanical problem with unitary evolution operator. The theory is self-dual: there are two exponential fields related by…
A possibility of strong coupling quantum Liouville gravity is investigated via infinite dimensional representations of $\qslc$ with $q$ at a root of unity. It is explicitly shown that vertex operator in this model can be written by a tensor…
We propose three core ideas: 1. the wave-particle duality of the qudit quantum space; 2. the classification of all elementary quantum gates by ordered pairs of qudit functionals; 3. a new type of quantum gates called the "quantum wave…
The path integral formulation in quantum mechanics corresponds to the first quantization since it is just to rewrite the quantum mechanical amplitude into many dimensional integrations over discretized coordinates $x_n$. However, the path…
Deterministic dynamical models are discussed which can be described in quantum mechanical terms. -- In particular, a local quantum field theory is presented which is a supersymmetric classical model. The Hilbert space approach of Koopman…

The Fully-Packed Loop (FPL) model on the honeycomb lattice is a critical model of non-intersecting polygons covering the full lattice, and was introduced by Reshetikhin in 1991. Using the two-component Coulomb-Gas approach of Kondev, de…
The Liouville field theory on Z_N-Riemann surfaces is studied and it is shown that it decomposes into a Liouville field theory on the sphere and N-1 free boson theories. Also, the partition function of the Liouville field theory on the…
We propose a precise duality between pure de Sitter quantum gravity in 2+1 dimensions and a double-scaled matrix integral. This duality unfolds in two distinct aspects. First, by carefully quantizing the gravitational phase space, we arrive…
We develop a systematic method of obtaining duality symmetric actions in different dimensions. This technique is applied for the quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator, the scalar field theory in two dimensions and the Maxwell theory in…
We consider a relativistic particle model in an enlarged relativistic phase space M^{18} = (X_\mu, P_\mu, \eta_\alpha, \oeta_\dalpha, \sigma_\alpha, \osigma_\dalpha, e, \phi), which is derived from the free two-twistor dynamics. The spin…
We consider the quantum Lobachevsky space ${\bf L}_q^3$, which is defined as subalgebra of the Hopf algebra ${\cal A}_q(SL_2({\bf C}))$. The Iwasawa decomposition of ${\cal A}_q(SL_2({\bf C}))$ introduced by Podles and Woronowicz allows to…
A gauge invariant Hamiltonian representation for SU(2) in terms of a spin network basis is introduced. The vectors of the spin network basis are independent and the electric part of the Hamiltonian is diagonal in this representation. The…
We introduce in this paper two dimensional lattice models whose continuum limit belongs to the $N=2$ series. The first kind of model is integrable and obtained through a geometrical reformulation, generalizing results known in the $k=1$…
We discuss Liouville field theory in the framework of Schwinger-Dyson approach and derive a functional equation for the three-point structure constant. We argue the existence of a second Schwinger-Dyson equation on the basis of the duality…
An analysis of the path-integral approach to quantum theory motivates the hypothesis that two experiments with the same classical action should have dual ontological descriptions. If correct, this hypothesis would not only constrain…
