Two sets of spatially diffeomorphism invariant operators are constructed in the loop representation formulation of quantum gravity. This is done by coupling general relativity to an anti- symmetric tensor gauge field and using that field to…

Quantum mechanics is formulated as a geometric theory on a Hilbert manifold. Images of charts on the manifold are allowed to belong to arbitrary Hilbert spaces of functions including spaces of generalized functions. Tensor equations in this…

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…

It is shown that the models of 2D Liouville Gravity, 2D Black Hole- and $R^2$-Gravity are {\em embedded} in the Katanaev-Volovich model of 2D NonEinsteinian Gravity. Different approaches to the formulation of a quantum theory for the above…

We study the boundary correlation functions in Liouville theory and in solvable statistical models of 2D quantum gravity. In Liouville theory we derive functional identities for all fundamental boundary structure constants, similar to the…

General 2d dilaton theories, containing spherically symmetric gravity and hence the Schwarzschild black hole as a special case, are quantized by an exact path integral of their geometric (Cartan-) variables. Matter, represented by minimally…

We expect quantum field theories for matter to acquire intricate corrections due to their coupling to quantum fluctuations of the gravitational field. This can be precisely worked out in 3d quantum gravity: after integrating out quantum…

A dynamical theory of hypersurface deformations is presented. It is shown that a (n+1)-dimensional space-time can be always foliated by pure deformations, governed by a non zero Hamiltonian. Quantum deformations states are defined by…

We solve two-dimensional gravity on surfaces with boundary in terms of contact interactions and surface degenerations. The known solution of the bulk theory in terms of a contact algebra is generalized to include boundaries and an enlarged…

We study a deSitter/Anti-deSitter/Poincare Yang-Mills theory of gravity in d-space-time dimensions in an attempt to retain the best features of both general relativity and Yang-Mills theory: quadratic curvature, dimensionless coupling and…

We revisit the gravity path integral formalism of JT gravity. We explain how to gauge fix the path integral in the presence of asymptotic boundaries and conical defects, and resolve an ambiguity regarding the dilaton gravity operator that…

A sketch of a recent approach to quantum gravity is presented which involves several unconventional aspects. The basic ingredients include: (1) Affine kinematical variables; (2) Affine coherent states; (3) Projection operator approach for…

We consider multilinear generalization of the Hirota derivative, which serves as a building block for integrable solitonic hierarchies. 2 special integrable mutlilinear equations are shown to be splittable into pairs of bilinear operators,…

Since the early days of search for a quantum theory of gravity the attempts have been mostly concentrated on the quantization of an otherwise classical system. The two most contentious candidate theories of gravity, sting theory and quantum…

We consider a model of 2D gravity with the action quadratic in curvature and represent path integrals as integrals over the SL(2, R) invariant Gaussian functional measure. We reduce these path integrals to the products of Wiener path…

The quantum gravity problem of N point particles interacting with the gravitational field in 2+1 dimensions is approached working out the phase-space functional integral. The maximally slicing gauge is adopted for a non compact open…

We formulate quantum field theories of massive fields of arbitrary spins. The presence of both physical and fake particles, organized into multiplets, makes it possible to fulfill the requirements of locality, unitarity and…

We propose a new approach to the quasitopological theory of gravity based on a modified classical double--copy construction. Focusing on static, spherically symmetric configurations, we show that all vacuum solutions of $D$--dimensional…

We compute N-point correlation functions of non-unitary (2k-1, 2) minimal matter coupled to 2D quantum gravity on a sphere using the continuum Liouville field approach. A gravitational dressing of the matter primary field with the minimum…

The Gauge/Bethe correspondence relates Omega-deformed N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories to some quantum integrable models, in simple cases the integrable models can be treated as solvable quantum mechanics models. For SU(2) gauge theory…
