Multi-dimensional Virasoro algebra and quantum gravity

I review the multi-dimensional generalizations of the Virasoro algebra, i.e. the non-central Lie algebra extensions of the algebra vect(N) of general vector fields in N dimensions, and its Fock representations. Being the Noether symmetry of background independent theories such as N -dimensional general relativity, this algebra is expected to be relevant to the quantization of gravity. To this e...

Notes on Curtright-Zachos Deformations of osp(1, 2) and Super Virasoro Algebras

Based on the quantum superspace construction of q-deformed algebra, we discuss a supersymmetric extension of the deformed Virasoro algebra, which is a subset of the q-W∞ algebra recently appeared in the context of two-dimensional string theory. We analyze two types of deformed super-Virasoro algebra as well as their osp(1, 2) subalgebras. Applying our quantum superspace structure to conformal f...

Manifestly Covariant Canonical Quantization of Gravity and Diffeomorphism Anomalies in Four Dimensions

Canonical quantization of gravity requires knowledge about the representation theory of its constraint algebra, which is physically equivalent to the algebra of arbitrary 4-diffeomorphisms. All interesting lowest-energy representations are projective, making the relevant algebra into a four-dimensional generalization of the Virasoro algebra. Such diffeomorphism anomalies are invisible in field ...

Chiral Liouville Gravity

Classical two-dimensional Liouville gravity is often considered in conformal gauge which has a residual left and right Virasoro symmetry algebra. We consider an alternate, chiral, gauge which has a residual right Virasoro Kac-Moody algebra, and no left Virasoro algebra. The Kac-Moody zero mode is the left-moving energy. Dirac brackets of the constrained Hamiltonian theory are derived, and the r...

Loop Equations and Virasoro Constraints in Non-perturbative 2-D Quantum Gravity

We give a derivation of the loop equation for two-dimensional gravity from the KdV equations and the string equation of the one matrix model. We find that the loop equation is equivalent to an infinite set of linear constraints on the square root of the partition function satisfying the Virasoro algebra. We give an interpretation of these equations in topological gravity and discuss their exten...
