General Covariance from the Quantum Renormalization Group
Vasudev Shyam
The Quantum renormalization group (QRG) is a realisation of holography through a coarse graining prescription that maps the beta functions of a quantum field theory thought to live…
Scale Invariance in Gravity On The Light-Front
Vasudev Shyam
In general relativity, the double null foliation is one for which -dimensional spacetime is foliated by two families of intersecting null hyper surfaces (i.e. surfaces whose nor…
Towards Black Hole Entropy in Shape Dynamics
Gabriel Herczeg, Vasudev Shyam
Shape dynamics is classical theory of gravity which agrees with general relativity in many important cases, but possesses different gauge symmetries and constraints. Rather than sp…
Proof of Positivity of Mass for Maximally Sliced, Asymptotically Flat Spacetimes
Vasudev Shyam
There exists in General Relativity an unambiguous notion of Mass associated to asymptotically flat spacetimes known as the ADM mass. The standard expression for the same is a surfa…
On the Geometric Quantization of Canonical Gravity
Vasudev Shyam
One of the hardest problems to tackle in the dynamics of canonical approaches to quantum gravity is that of the Hamiltonian constraint. We investigate said problem in the context o…
Intrinsic Time Deparameterization of The Canonical Connection Dynamics of General Relativity
Vasudev Shyam
We investigate the implications of intrinsic time deparameterization on the phase space of the connection representation of canonical gravity in the form of the Ashtekar variables.…
