Quantum gravity without vacuum dispersion
Daniel Coumbe
A generic prediction of quantum gravity is the vacuum dispersion of light, and hence that a photon's speed depends on its energy. We present further numerical evidence for a scale…
What is dimensional reduction really telling us?
Daniel Coumbe
Numerous approaches to quantum gravity report a reduction in the number of spacetime dimensions at the Planck scale. However, accepting the reality of dimensional reduction also me…
Exploring the new phase transition of CDT
D. N. Coumbe, J. Gizbert-Studnicki, J. Jurkiewicz
This work focuses on the newly discovered bifurcation phase transition of CDT quantum gravity. We define various order parameters and investigate which is most suitable to study th…
Signature Change of the Metric in CDT Quantum Gravity?
Jan Ambjørn, Daniel N. Coumbe, Jakub Gizbert-Studnicki +1
We study the effective transfer matrix within the semiclassical and bifurcation phases of CDT quantum gravity. We find that for sufficiently large lattice volumes the kinetic term…
