The Regge calculus generalised to independent area tensor variables is considered. The continuous time limit is found and formal Feynman path integral measure corresponding to the canonical quantisation is written out. The quantum measure…
Because of unboundedness of the general relativity action, Euclidean version of the path integral in general relativity requires definition. Area tensor Regge calculus is considered in the representation with independent area tensor and…
Euclidean quantum measure in Regge calculus with independent area tensors is considered using example of the Regge manifold of a simple structure. We go over to integrations along certain contours in the hyperplane of complex connection…
Regge calculus configuration superspace can be embedded into a more general superspace where the length of any edge is defined ambiguously depending on the 4-tetrahedron containing the edge. Moreover, the latter superspace can be extended…
We investigate quantum gravity in the path integral formulation using the Regge calculus. Restricting the quadratic link lengths of the originally triangular lattice the path integral can be transformed to the partition function of a spin…
The quantum measure in area tensor Regge calculus can be constructed in such the way that it reduces to the Feynman path integral describing canonical quantisation if the continuous limit along any of the coordinates is taken. This…
An approach to the discrete quantum gravity based on the Regge calculus is discussed which was developed in a number of our papers. Regge calculus is general relativity for the subclass of general Riemannian manifolds called piecewise flat…
Regge calculus minisuperspace action in the connection representation has the form in which each term is linear over some field variable (scale of area-type variable with sign). We are interested in the result of performing integration over…
A comparative analysis of the versions of quantum measure in the area tensor Regge calculus is performed on the simplest configurations of the system. The quantum measure is constructed in such the way that it reduces to the Feynman path…
We propose the following way of constructing quantum measure in Regge calculus: the full discrete Regge manifold is made continuous in some direction by tending corresponding dimensions of simplices to zero, then functional integral measure…
A Kerr type solution in the Regge calculus is considered. It is assumed that the discrete general relativity, the Regge calculus, is quantized within the path integral approach. The only consequence of this approach used here is the…
The problem of fixing measure in the path integral for the Regge-discretised gravity is considered from the viewpoint of it's "best approximation" to the already known formal continuum general relativity (GR) measure. A rigorous formulation…
We consider minisuperspace gravity system described by piecewise flat metric discontinuous on three-dimensional faces (tetrahedra). There are infinite terms in the Einstein action. However, starting from proper regularization, these terms…
We study quantum gravity in the path-integral formulation using the Regge calculus. In spite of the unbounded gravitational action the existence of an entropy-dominated phase is confirmed. The influence of various types of measures on this…
We investigate the influence of the measure in the path integral for Euclidean quantum gravity in four dimensions within the Regge calculus. The action is bounded without additional terms by fixing the average lattice spacing. We set the…
The arguments were given in a number of our papers that the discrete quantum gravity based on the Regge calculus possesses nonzero vacuum expectation values of the triangulation lengths of the order of Plank scale $10^{-33}cm$. These…
Regge calculus minisuperspace action in the connection representation has the form in which each term is linear over some field variable (scale of area-type variable with sign). We are interested in the result of performing integration over…
One of several possibilities to construct a quantum theory of gravity is employing the Feynman path integral. This approach is plagued by some problems: the integration measure is not uniquely defined, the Einstein-Hilbert action unbounded,…
Regge calculus is considered as a particular case of the more general system where the linklengths of any two neighbouring 4-tetrahedra do not necessarily coincide on their common face. This system is treated as that one described by metric…
Quantum gravity is studied in the path integral formulation applying the Regge calculus. Restricting the quadratic link lengths of the originally triangular lattice the path integral can be transformed to the partition function of a spin…
