Abstract

Lorentzian simplicial quantum gravity is a non-perturbatively defined theory of quantum gravity which predicts a positive cosmological constant. Since the approach is based on a sum over space–time histories, it is perturbatively non-renormalizable even in three dimensions. By mapping the three-dimensional theory to a two-matrix model with ABAB interaction we show that both the cosmological and the (perturbatively) non-renormalizable gravitational coupling constant undergo additive renormalizations consistent with canonical quantization.

  • The Lorentzian dynamical triangulation model can be translated into a two-matrix model, the ABAB model; Feynman diagrams correspond to dual graphs of a triangulation, and matrix model amplitudes become particular sums of transfer matrix elements.

    “The Lorentzian dynamical triangulation model can also be translated into a two-matrix model, the so-called ABAB model. The Feynman diagrams of the matrix model correspond to dual graphs of a triangulation, and matrix model amplitudes become particular sums of transfer matrix elements in the gravitational theory [11, 14, 15].”
  • The matrix model connection can be used to show that Newton's constant and the cosmological constant are additively renormalized, and to analyze the apparent nonrenormalizability of ordinary field theoretical approach.

    “For example, the matrix model connection can be used to show that Newton’s constant and the cosmological constant are additively renormalized [14], and to analyze the apparent nonrenormalizability of ordinary field theoretical approach.”

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.
