Gravity, Quantum Geometry and Field Theory Unit

pause

The Gravity, Quantum Geometry and Field Theory Unit’s research interest lies in revealing the quantum nature of spacetime. Geometrical aspects of gravity, manifested in General Relativity, have been enjoyed by the advancement in quantum gravity approaches, such as matrix models, tensor models, and lattice methods. Quantum field theory is a solid modern tool in describing physical systems with many degrees of freedom, letting us explore critical phenomena and the scale dependence of physics through the renormalization group. We combine these advanced tools to study quantum gravity.
