Exact Dirac Quantization of All 2-D Dilaton Gravity Theories
D. Louis- Martinez, J. Gegenberg, G. Kunstatter
The most general dilaton gravity theory in 2 spacetime dimensions is considered. A Hamiltonian analysis is performed and the reduced phase space, which is two dimensional, is expli…
The Geometry and Topology of 3-Manifolds and Gravity
J. Gegenberg, G. Kunstatter
It is well known that one can parameterize 2-D Riemannian structures by conformal transformations and diffeomorphisms of fiducial constant curvature geometries; and that this const…
The Partition Function for Topological Field Theories
J. Gegenberg, G. Kunstatter
We use a Hodge decomposition and its generalization to non-abelian flat vector bundles to calculate the partition function for abelian and non- abelian BF theories in dimension…
Quantum Theory of Black Holes
J. Gegenberg, G. Kunstatter
A solvable 2-dimensional conformally invariant midi-superspace model for black holes is obtained by imposing spherical symmetry in 4-dimensional conformally invariant Einstein grav…
