分形宇宙与量子引力

Fractal universe and quantum gravity

Gianluca Calcagni

摘要:

我们提出了一种生活在分形时空中的场论,并被认为是洛伦兹不变量、幂计数可重正化、紫外有限和因果的。这个系统从一个紫外固定点(在那里时空的豪斯多夫维数为2)流动到一个符合标准四维场论的红外极限。经典地,场所处的分形世界与具有整数拓扑维数的体块交换能量动量。然而,总的能量动量是守恒的。我们考虑标量场的动力学和传播子。对量子引力,宇宙学和宇宙学常数的影响进行了讨论。

英文摘要:

We propose a field theory which lives in fractal spacetime and is argued to be Lorentz invariant, power-counting renormalizable, ultraviolet finite, and causal. The system flows from an ultraviolet fixed point, where spacetime has Hausdorff dimension 2, to an infrared limit coinciding with a standard four-dimensional field theory. Classically, the fractal world where fields live exchanges energy momentum with the bulk with integer topological dimension. However, the total energy momentum is conserved. We consider the dynamics and the propagator of a scalar field. Implications for quantum gravity, cosmology, and the cosmological constant are discussed.
