A Generalized Wick Transform for Gravity
Abstract Using a key observation due to Thiemann, a generalized Wick transform is introduced to map the constraint functionals of Riemannian general relativity to those of the Lorentzian theory, including matter sources. This opens up a new avenue within “connection-dynamics” where one can work, throughout, only with real variables. The resulting quantum theory would then be free of complicated...
متن کاملIsomonodromic Quantization of Dimensionally Reduced Gravity
We present a detailed account of the isomonodromic quantization of dimensionally reduced Einstein gravity with two commuting Killing vectors. This theory constitutes an integrable “midi-superspace” version of quantum gravity with infinitely many interacting physical degrees of freedom. The canonical treatment is based on the complete separation of variables in the isomonodromic sectors of the m...
متن کامل3 Dimensionally reduced gravity theories are asymptotically safe
4D Einstein gravity coupled to scalars and abelian gauge fields in its 2-Killing vector reduction is shown to be quasi-renormalizable to all loop orders at the expense of introducing infinitely many essential couplings. The latter can be combined into one or two functions of the ‘area radius’ associated with the two Killing vectors. The renormalization flow of these couplings is governed by bet...
متن کاملVertex Operator Solutions of 2 d Dimensionally Reduced Gravity .
We apply algebraic and vertex operator techniques to solve two dimensional reduced vacuum Einstein's equations. This leads to explicit expressions for the coefficients of metrics solutions of the vacuum equations as ratios of determinants. No quadratures are left. These formulas rely on the identification of dual pairs of vertex operators corresponding to dual metrics related by the Kramer-Neug...
متن کاملPoisson Algebra of 2 d Dimensionally Reduced Gravity
Using a Lax pair based on twisted affine sl(2, R) Kac-Moody and Virasoro algebras, we deduce a r-matrix formulation of two dimensional reduced vacuum Einstein’s equations. Whereas the fundamental Poisson brackets are non-ultralocal, they lead to pure c-number modified Yang-Baxter equations. We also describe how to obtain classical observables by imposing reasonable boundaries conditions. Member...
