From quantum groups to Liouville and dilaton quantum gravity
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We investigate the underlying quantum group symmetry of 2d Liouville and dilaton gravity models, both consolidating known results and extending them to the cases with N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetry.

Contextual extensions of quantum gravity models [PDF]
International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2021 We present a simple way of incorporating the structure of contextual extensions into quantum gravity models. The contextual extensions of [Formula: see text]-algebras, originally proposed for contextual hidden variables, are generalized to the cones indexed by the contexts and their limit in a category.

The two-sphere partition function in two-dimensional quantum gravity
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We study the Euclidean path integral of two-dimensional quantum gravity with positive cosmological constant coupled to conformal matter with large and positive central charge.

The price of curiosity: information recovery in de Sitter space
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Recent works have revealed that quantum extremal islands can contribute to the fine-grained entropy of black hole radiation reproducing the unitary Page curve.

An outsider’s perspective on information recovery in de Sitter space
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 Entanglement islands play a crucial role in our understanding of how Hawking radiation encodes information in a black hole, but their relevance in cosmological spacetimes is less clear. In this paper, we continue our investigation of information recovery

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 ...

The two-sphere partition function from timelike Liouville theory at three-loop order
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 While the Euclidean two-dimensional gravitational path integral is in general highly fluctuating, it admits a semiclassical two-sphere saddle if coupled to a matter CFT with large and positive central charge. In Weyl gauge this gravity theory is known as

SPIN-CUBE MODELS OF QUANTUM GRAVITY [PDF]
Reviews in Mathematical Physics, 2013 We study the state-sum models of quantum gravity based on a representation 2-category of the Poincaré 2-group. We call them spin-cube models, since they are categorical generalizations of spin-foam models. A spin-cube state sum can be considered as a path integral for a constrained 2-BF theory, and depending on how the constraints are imposed, a spin ...

Gravitational Decoherence [PDF]
, 1938 We discuss effects of loss of coherence in low energy quantum systems caused by or related to gravitation, referred to as gravitational decoherence.

The phase structure of causal dynamical triangulations with toroidal spatial topology
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We investigate the impact of topology on the phase structure of fourdimensional Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT). Using numerical Monte Carlo simulations we study CDT with toroidal spatial topology.
