EMERGENCE OF GRAVITY FROM INTERACTING SIMPLICES

    https://doi.org/10.1142/S0217751X09045856Cited by:5 (Source: Crossref)

    We consider a statistical model of interacting 4-simplices fluctuating in an N-dimensional target space. We argue that a gravitational theory may arise as a low energy effective theory in a strongly interacting phase where the simplices form clusters with an emergent space and time with the Euclidean signature. In the large N limit, two possible phases are discussed, that is, "gravitational Coulomb phase" and "gravitational Higgs phase."
