Scaling exponents in quantum gravity near two dimensions

Abstract

We formulate quantum gravity in 2 + ϵ dimensions in such a way that the conformal mode is explicitly separated. The dynamics of the conformal mode is understood in terms of oversubtraction due to the one-loop counter term. The renormalization of the gravitational dressed operators is studied and their anomalous dimensions are computed. The exact scaling exponents of the two-dimensional quantum gravity are reproduced in the strong coupling regime when we take the ϵ → 0 limit. The theory possesses the ultraviolet fixed point as long as the central charge c < 25, which separates weak and strong coupling phases. The weak coupling phase may represent the same universality class with our Universe in the sense that it contains massless gravitons if we extrapolate ϵ up to 2.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
