A proper definition of the path integral of quantum gravity has been a long-standing puzzle because the Weyl factor of the Euclidean metric has a wrong-sign kinetic term. We propose a definition of two-dimensional Liouville quantum gravity…

We study a new two-dimensional quantum gravity theory, based on a gravitational action containing both the familiar Liouville term and the Mabuchi functional, which has been shown to be related to the coupling of non-conformal matter to…

We investigate the correlators in unitary minimal conformal models coupled to two-dimensional gravity from the two-matrix model. We show that simple fusion rules for all of the scaling operators exist. We demonstrate the role played by the…

We construct the boundary ground ring in c < 1 open string theories with non-zero boundary cosmological constant (FZZT brane), using the Coulomb gas representation. The ring relations yield an over-determined set of functional recurrence…

Using the recently found first order formulation of two-dimensional dilaton gravity with boundary, we perform a Hamiltonian analysis and subsequent path integral quantization. The importance of the boundary terms to obtain the correct…

Liouville conformal field theory is considered with conformal boundary. There is a family of conformal boundary conditions parameterized by the boundary cosmological constant, so that observables depend on the dimensional ratios of boundary…

The dynamics of Liouville fields coupled to gravity are investigated by applying the principle of general covariance to the Liouville action in the context of a particular form of two-dimensional dilaton gravity. The resultant field…

The 2D quantum gravity on a disc, or the non-critical theory of open strings, is known to exhibit an integrable structure, the boundary ground ring, which determines completely the boundary correlation functions. Inspired by the recent…

We study four-point correlation functions with logarithmic behaviour in Liouville field theory on a sphere, which consist of one kind of the local operators. We study them as non-integrated correlation functions of the gravitational sector…

We develop a perturbative expansion of quantum Liouville theory on the pseudosphere around the background generated by heavy charges. Explicit results are presented for the one and two point functions corresponding to the summation of…

We address the problem of computing the tachyon correlation functions in Liouville gravity with generic (non-rational) matter central charge c<1. We consider two variants of the theory. The first is the conventional one in which the…

The correlation functions for models of minimal gravity are discussed. An algorithm is proposed for calculations of invariant ratios from formulas of residues that can be compared with the coefficients of expansion of the partition function…

We study the gravitational action induced by coupling two-dimensional non-conformal, massive matter to gravity on a compact Riemann surface. We express this gravitational action in terms of finite and well-defined quantities for any value…

The Liouville action emerges as the effective action of 2-d gravity in the process of path integral quantization of the bosonic string. It yields a measure of the violation of classical symmetries of the theory at the quantum level. Certain…

A new formulation of $c\leq 1$ matter coupled to 2D gravity is proposed. This model, being closely analogous to one in the Polyakov light-cone gauge, possesses well defined global properties which allow to calculate correlation functions.…

We study correlators in two-dimensional $T\bar{T}$-deformed conformal field theories by interpreting the $T\bar{T}$ deformation as a coupling to two-dimensional gravity. To demonstrate the utility of the massive gravity framework as a…

We compare different models of a quantum theory of four-dimensional lattice gravity based on Regge's original proposal. From Monte Carlo simulations we calculate two-point functions between geometrical quantities and estimate the masses of…

The one-matrix model is considered. The generating function of the correlation numbers is defined in such a way that this function coincide with the generating function of the Liouville gravity. Using the Kontsevich theorem we explain that…

We discuss some classical and quantum properties of 2d gravity models involving metric and a scalar field. Different models are parametrized in terms of a scalar potential. We show that a general Liouville-type model with exponential…

In this article, we will show how to use Zamolodchikov's higher equations of motion in Liouville field theory to explicitly calculate $N$-point correlation numbers in minimal Liouville gravity for $N>4$. We find the explicit expression for…
