We compute the holographic Euclidean two-point function of scalar operators in a thermal state. We work directly using the Fourier series on the thermal circle. The Fourier series does not converge as a function, but instead converges as a…
In the first part of this paper we provide a short introduction to the AdS/CFT correspondence and to holographic renormalization. We discuss how QFT correlation functions, Ward identities and anomalies are encoded in the bulk geometry. In…
We show that 't Hooft's representation of (2+1)-dimensional gravity in terms of flat polygonal tiles is closely related to a gauge-fixed version of the covariant Hamiltonian lattice theory. 't Hooft's gauge is remarkable in that it leads to…
We present a path integral formalism for quantising gravity in the form of the spectral action. Our basic principle is to sum over all Dirac operators. The approach is demonstrated on two simple finite noncommutative geometries: the…
We present a version of holographic correspondence where bulk solutions with sources localized on the holographic screen are the key objects of interest, and not bulk solutions defined by their boundary values on the screen. We can use this…
We use the polygon representation of 2+1--dimensional gravity to explicitly carry out the canonical quantization of a universe with the topology of a torus. The mapping-class-invariant wave function for a quantum ''big bounce'', is…
Two algorithms are proposed to simulate space-time Gaussian random fields with a covariance function belonging to an extended Gneiting class, the definition of which depends on a completely monotone function associated with the spatial…
Certain difficulties of quantum gravity can be avoided if we embed the spacetime $V_4$ into a higher dimensional space $V_N$; then our spacetime is merely a 4-surface in $V_N$.What remains is conceptually not so difficult: just to quantise…
New holographic prescription for the model of 3d higher-spin gravity coupled to real matter fields $B_{\mu\nu}$ and $C$, which was introduced in ArXiv:1304.7941[hep-th], is formulated. By using a local symmetry, two of the components of…
We develop a hybrid formalism suitable for modeling scalar field dark matter, in which the phase-space distribution associated to the real scalar field is modeled by statistical equal-time two-point functions and gravity is treated by two…
The canonical formalism of the (2+2) formulation of general relativity of 4 spacetime dimensions is studied under no symmetry assumptions, where the spacetime is viewed as a local product of a 2 dimensional base manifold of Lorentzian…
By precisely writing down the matrix element of the local Boltzmann operator, we have proposed a new path integral formulation for quantum field theory and developed a corresponding Monte Carlo algorithm. With current formula, the…
In this short note we review a recently found formulation of two-dimensional causal quantum gravity defined through Causal Dynamical Triangulations and stochastic quantization. This procedure enables one to extract the nonperturbative…
The 3d spin-3 gravity theory is holographically dual to a 2d ${\cal W}_3$-extended CFT. In a large-c limit the symmetry algebra of the CFT reduces to $SU(1,2) \times SU(1,2)$. On the ground of symmetry the dual bulk space-time will be given…
We show that sampling or interpolation formulas in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces can be obtained by reproducing kernels whose dual systems form molecules, ensuring that the size profile of a function is fully reflected by the size…
In this paper, we discuss the concept of bulk reconstruction, which involves mapping bulk operators into CFT operators to understand the emergence of spacetime and gravity. We argue that the $N=\infty$ approximation fails to capture crucial…
We present a non-perturbative quantization of general relativity coupled to dust and other matter fields. The dust provides a natural time variable, leading to a physical Hamiltonian with spatial diffeomorphism symmetry. The methods of loop…
An attempt is made to make precise the connection between Wilson's RG and "Holographic RG" by writing Wilson's RG in a holographic form. A functional formulation is given for the exact RG evolution of a scalar field in $d$ (flat)…
The Hamiltonian and Lagrangian formalisms of Qunatum Field Theory (QFT) are equivalent. But while Lorentz invariance can be clearly seen in the Lagrangian formalism, it is not so explicit in the Hamiltonian one. This is because time is…
We set up the formalism of holographic renormalization for the matter-coupled two-dimensional maximal supergravity that captures the low-lying fluctuations around the non-conformal D0-brane near-horizon geometry. As an application we…
