Liouville gravity from Einstein gravity
We show that Liouville gravity arises as the limit of pure Einstein gravity in 2+ ε dimensions as ε goes to zero, provided Newton’s constant scales with ε. Our procedure – spherical reduction, dualization, limit, dualizing back – passes several consistency tests: geometric properties, interactions with matter and the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy are as expected from Einstein gravity.

متن کاملLineal gravity from planar gravity.
We show how to obtain the two dimensional black hole action by a dimensional reduction of the three dimensional Einstein action with a non-zero cosmological constant. Starting from the Chern-Simons formulation of 2+1 gravity, we obtain the 1+1-dimensional gauge formulation given by Verlinde. Remarkably, the proposed reduction shares the relevant features of the formulation of Cangemi and Jackiw...
متن کاملGravity From Noncommutative Geometry
We introduce the linear connection in the noncommutative geometry model of the product of continuous manifold and the discrete space of two points. We discuss its metric properties, de ne the metric connection and calculate the curvature. We de ne also the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature. We nd that the latter di ers from the standard scalar curvature of the manifold by a term, which migh...
متن کاملGravity from Dirac Eigenvalues
We study a formulation of euclidean general relativity in which the dynamical variables are given by a sequence of real numbers λn, representing the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on the curved spacetime. These quantities are diffeomorphisminvariant functions of the metric and they form an infinite set of “physical observables” for general relativity. Recent work of Connes and Chamseddine su...
متن کاملGravity from Spinors
We investigate the proposal that a unified theory of all interactions could be based only on fundamental spinor fields, with vielbein and metric arising as composite objects. The effective gravitational theory leads to a modification of Einstein’s equations due to the lack of local Lorentz-symmetry. We explore the generalized gravity with global instead of local Lorentz symmetry in first order ...
