Geometrodynamical Formulation of Two-Dimensional Dilaton Gravity

Marco Cavaglia

Two-dimensional matterless dilaton gravity with arbitrary dilatonic potential can be discussed in a unitary way, both in the Lagrangian and canonical frameworks, by introducing sui…

Geometrodynamical Formulation of Two-Dimensional Dilaton Gravity and the Quantum Birkhoff Theorem

Marco Cavaglia

General two-dimensional pure dilaton-gravity can be discussed in a unitary way by introducing suitable field redefinitions. The new fields are directly related to the original spac…

The metron model. Towards a unified deterministic theory of fields and particles

Klaus Hasselmann

A conceptual summary is given of a deterministic unified field and particle theory (the metron model) developed in more mathematical detail in a four-part paper published in Physic…

Supermembranes and M(atrix) Theory

Hermann Nicolai, Robert Helling

In these lectures, we review the D=11 supermembrane and supersymmetric matrix models at an introductory level. We also discuss some more recent developments in connection with non-…

Non-perturbative Lorentzian Quantum Gravity, Causality and Topology Change

J. Ambjorn, R. Loll

We formulate a non-perturbative lattice model of two-dimensional Lorentzian quantum gravity by performing the path integral over geometries with a causal structure. The model can b…
