The method of the factorization of the path integral measure, based on a nonlinear filtering equation, is extended to the case of a nonfree isometric action of the compact semisimple unimodular Lie group on a smooth compact Riemannian…

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…

The integrated mean curvature of a simplicial manifold is well understood in both Regge Calculus and Discrete Differential Geometry. However, a well motivated pointwise definition of curvature requires a careful choice of volume over which…

The role of Regge calculus as a tool for numerical relativity is discussed, and a parallelizable implicit evolution scheme described. Because of the structure of the Regge equations, it is possible to advance the vertices of a triangulated…

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…

The path integral on a homogeneous space $ G/H $ is constructed, based on the guiding principle `first lift to $ G $ and then project to $ G/H $'. It is then shown that this principle admits inequivalent quantizations inducing a gauge field…

Starting from the canonical phase space for discretised (4d) BF-theory, we implement a canonical version of the simplicity constraints and construct phase spaces for simplicial geometries. Our construction allows us to study the connection…

A path integral reduction procedure in Wiener-type path integrals, based on the approach developed in arXiv:1912.13124, is applied to a simple invariant mechanical system defined on a product manifold with a given free, proper and isometric…

We formulate path integrals on any Riemannian manifold which admits the action of a compact Lie group by isometric transformations. We consider a path integral on a Riemannian manifold M on which a Lie group G acts isometrically. Then we…

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…

We consider two versions of quantum Regge calculus. The Standard Regge Calculus where the quadratic link lengths of the simplicial manifold vary continuously and the Z_2-Regge Model where they are restricted to two possible values. The goal…

We study the application of the coherent-state path integral as a numerical tool for wave-packet propagation. The numerical evaluation of path integrals is reduced to a matrix-vector multiplication scheme. Together with a split-operator…

This report aims to present the main ideas of Regge calculus necessary to understand the basic premise of CDT. Next, the main strategy of the CDT approach is introduced in general terms. The main focus of this report is the 2-D model of…

The transformation of the path integral measure under the reduction procedure in the dynamical systems with a symmetry is considered. The investigation is carried out in the case of the Wiener--type path integrals that are used for…

A path integral representation of the evolution operator for the four-dimensional Dirac equation is proposed. A quadratic form of the canonical momenta regularizes the original representation of the path integral in the electron phase…

There are very few explicit evaluations of path integrals for topological gauge theories in more than 3 dimensions. Here we provide such a calculation for the path integral representation of the Ray-Singer Torsion of a flat connection on a…

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…

We develop a path integral representation for the dynamics of quantum systems with a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, formulated entirely within a discrete phase space. Starting from the discrete Wigner function defined on $\mathbb{Z}_d…

While there has been some advance in the use of Regge calculus as a tool in numerical relativity, the main progress in Regge calculus recently has been in quantum gravity. After a brief discussion of this progress, attention is focussed on…

A branched rough path $X$ consists of a rough integral calculus for $X \colon [0, T] \to \mathbb R^d$ which may fail to satisfy integration by parts. Using Kelly's bracket extension [Kel12], we define a notion of pushforward of branched…
