Fuzzy Black Holes from Mass Generation in Matrix Compactification
Davide Laurenzano, John F. Wheater
We investigate a mechanism for generating mass terms in the IKKT and BFSS matrix theories through compactification on a torus and the derivation of a zero-mode effective theory, em…
A Soft Theorem from vertex-like operators in BFSS Theory
Davide Laurenzano, John F. Wheater
In this paper, we derive a soft theorem at leading and subleading orders within the context of BFSS matrix theory. Specifically, we consider the effective field theory describing i…
From Trees to Gravity
Bergfinnur Durhuus, Thordur Jonsson, John Wheater
In this article we study two related models of quantum geometry: generic random trees and two-dimensional causal triangulations. The Hausdorff and spectral dimensions that arise in…
The Size of a Soliton
John F. Wheater, P. D. Xavier
We consider the recently proposed Bound State Conjecture for quantum field theory in the context of solitons in two dimensional scalar field theory. We calculate the quantum…
The cylinder amplitude in the Hard Dimer model on 2D Causal Dynamical Triangulations
John F. Wheater, P. D. Xavier
We consider the model of hard dimers coupled to two-dimensional Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT) with all dimer types present and solve it exactly subject to a single restrict…
Boundary Conditions and the q-state Potts model on Random Planar Maps
Aravinth Kulanthaivelu, John F. Wheater
We extend a recent analysis of the -states Potts model on an ensemble of random planar graphs with allowed, equally weighted, spins on a connected boundary. In th…
