EXTENSIONS OF 2D GRAVITY [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 1994 After reviewing some aspects of gravity in two dimensions, I show that non-trivial embeddings of sl(2) in a semi-simple (super) Lie algebra give rise to a very large class of extensions of 2D gravity. The induced action is constructed as a gauged WZW model and an exact expression for the effective action is given.

Softening transitions with quenched 2D gravity [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1997 We perform extensive Monte Carlo simulations of the 10-state Potts model on quenched two-dimensional $Φ^3$ gravity graphs to study the effect of quenched connectivity disorder on the phase transition, which is strongly first order on regular lattices.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 The 2D N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (2, 2)∗ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory can be obtained from the 2D N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (4, 4) theory with a twisted mass deformation.

On the equivalence of topological and quantum 2D gravity [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 1992 We demonstrate the equivalence of Virasoro constraints imposed on continuum limit of partition function of Hermitean 1-matrix model and the Ward identities of Kontsevich's model. Since the first model describes ordinary $d = 2$ quantum gravity, while the second one is supposed to coincide with Witten's topological gravity, the result provides a strong ...

Physics Letters B, 1990 Abstract We consider a formulation of nonperturbative two-dimensional quantum gravity coupled to a single bosonic field (d = 1 matter). Starting from a matrix realization of the discretized model, we express the continuum theory as a double scaling limit in which the 2D cosmological constant g tends towards a critical value gc, and the string ...

Effective gravitational action for 2D massive fermions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We work out the effective gravitational action for 2D massive Euclidean fermions in a small mass expansion. Besides the leading Liouville action, the order m 2 gravitational action contains a piece characteristic of the Mabuchi action, much as for 2D ...

Effects of Gravity and Inlet/Outlet Location on a Two-Phase Cocurrent Imbibition in Porous Media
Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2011 We introduce 2D numerical investigations of the problem of gravity and inlet/outlet location effects of water-oil two-phase cocurrent imbibition in a porous medium. Three different cases of side-, top-, and bottom-inlet location are considered.
