Implementing holographic projections in Ponzano--Regge gravity

arXiv:hep-th/0107112 · doi:10.1016/S0550-3213(01)00531-4

Abstract

We consider the path-sum of Ponzano-Regge with additional boundary contributions in the context of the holographic principle of Quantum Gravity. We calculate an holographic projection in which the bulk partition function goes to a semi-classical limit while the boundary state functional remains quantum-mechanical. The properties of the resulting boundary theory are discussed.
