Group Field Theories
by Thomas Krajewski
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 58
Description:
Group field theories are particular quantum field theories defined on D copies of a group which reproduce spin foam amplitudes on a space-time of dimension D. In these lecture notes, we present the general construction of group field theories, merging ideas from tensor models and loop quantum gravity.
