Gravitational binding in 4D dynamical triangulation
Bas V. de Bakker, Jan Smit
In the dynamical triangulation model of four dimensional euclidean quantum gravity we investigate gravitational binding. Two scalar test particles (quenched approximation) have a p…
Further evidence that the transition of 4D dynamical triangulation is 1st order
Bas V. de Bakker
We confirm recent claims that, contrary to what was generally believed, the phase transition of the dynamical triangulation model of four-dimensional quantum gravity is of first or…
Correlations and Binding in 4D Dynamical Triangulation
B. V. de Bakker, J. Smit
We study correlations on the euclidean spacetimes generated in Monte Carlo simulations of the model. In the elongated phase, curvature correlations appear to fall off like a fracti…
Simplicial Quantum Gravity
Bas V. de Bakker
This is my PhD thesis on four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity using the dynamical triangulation model. Most of the results we have published in separate papers are collected…
Two-point functions in 4D dynamical triangulation
Bas V. de Bakker, Jan Smit
In the dynamical triangulation model of 4D euclidean quantum gravity we measure two-point functions of the scalar curvature as a function of the geodesic distance. To get the corre…
Absence of barriers in dynamical triangulation
Bas V. de Bakker
Due to the unrecognizability of certain manifolds there must exist pairs of triangulations of these manifolds that can only be reached from each other by going through an intermedi…
