Random Tensors

Informationen zum Autor Razvan Gheorghe Gurau studied as an undergraduate at the Physics Department of the University of Bucharest before coming to France in 2002 as an élève of the École Normale Supérieure de Paris, Selection Internationale. He obtained his BA and MA degrees from the ENS and continued with a PhD in Mathematical Physics at the Université Paris 11, graduating in 2008. From 2008 to 2012 he was a postdoctoral researcher and a senior postdoctoral researcher at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. In 2012 he joined the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique as a full-time researcher and obtained his Habilitation a diriger des recherches in 2015. Klappentext This book introduces "Random Tensors," a framework for studying random geometries in any dimension. It provides a complete derivation of the key results in the field. Whatever form a theory of Quantum Gravity may take, it must incorporate random geometry.
