Continuum limit in matrix models for quantum gravity from the Functional Renormalization Group [PDF]
We consider the double-scaling limit in matrix models for two-dimensional quantum gravity, and establish the nonperturbative functional Renormalization Group as a novel technique to compute the corresponding interacting fixed point of the Renormalization

NEW SPIN FOAM MODELS OF QUANTUM GRAVITY [PDF]
We give a brief and a critical review of the Barret-Crane spin foam models of quantum gravity. Then we describe two new spin foam models which are obtained by direct quantization of General Relativity and do not have some of the drawbacks of the Barret-Crane models.

Towards a spin foam model description of black hole entropy
We propose a way to describe the origin of black hole entropy in the spin foam models of quantum gravity. This stimulates a new way to study the relation of spin foam models and loop quantum gravity.Comment: 5 pages, 1 ...

2-Group Representations for Spin Foams [PDF]
Just as 3d state sum models, including 3d quantum gravity, can be built using categories of group representations, "2-categories of 2-group representations" may provide interesting state sum models for 4d quantum topology, if not quantum gravity. Here we

A molecular motor with four‐state dynamic chirality is integrated into liquid crystals, enabling quadruple sequential helix inversions and high helical twisting power. Due to high motor efficiency, the supramolecular helicity can be controlled by near‐infrared light via upconversion nanoparticles, resulting in a robust, multistate, photoresponsive soft

De Sitter microstates from T T ¯ $$ \overline{T} $$ + Λ2 and the Hawking-Page transition
We obtain microstates accounting for the Gibbons-Hawking entropy in dS 3, along with a subleading logarithmic correction, from the solvable T T ¯ $$ \overline{T} $$ + Λ2 deformation of a seed CFT with sparse light spectrum.

Influence of Micropillar Height Modulation on Droplet Evaporation and Wetting State Transitions
Controlling droplet evaporation dynamics is crucial across many fields. Here, it demonstrates laser‐fabricated polymer micropillar arrays with tailored height variations to regulate evaporation behavior. While all arrays exhibit superhydrophobic wetting, their distinct height profiles effectively slow evaporation and alter evaporation modes ...

Benefits of Objective Collapse Models for Cosmology and Quantum Gravity [PDF]
We display a number of advantages of objective collapse theories for the resolution of long-standing problems in cosmology and quantum gravity. In particular, we examine applications of objective reduction models to three important issues: the origin of ...
