Induced quantum gravity on a Riemann Surface

Abstract

Induced quantum gravity dynamics built over a Riemann surface is studied in arbitrary dimension. Local coordinates on the target space are given by means of the Laguerre-Forsyth construction. A simple model is proposed and pertubatively quantized. In doing so, the classical W-symmetry turns out to be preserved on-shell at any order of the $\hslash$ perturbative expansion. As a main result, due to quantum corrections, the target coordinates acquire a non-trivial character.
