Dynamical content of quantum diffeomorphisms in two-dimensional quantum gravity | | V. Aldaya

24 Mar 2000 | | Journal: | Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl. 88 (2000) 229-232 | | Subject: | gr-qc | | Abstract: | A model for 2D-quantum gravity from the Virasoro symmetry is studied. The notion of space-time naturally arises as a homogeneous space associated with the kinematical (non-dynamical) SL(2,R) symmetry in the kernel of the Lie-algebra central extension for the critical values of the conformal anomaly. The rest of the generators in the group, L_n (n>1, n<-1), mix space-times with different constant curvature. Only in the classical limit all space-times can be identified, defining a unique Minkowski space-time, and the operators L_n (n<1, n<-1) gauged away. This process entails a restriction to SL(2,R) subrepresentations, which creates a non-trivial two-dimensional symplectic classical phase space. The present model thus suggests that the role of general covariance in quantum gravity is different from that played in the classical limit. | | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/0003094 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
