Important problems in particle physics:
 the hierarchy problem
why EW scale is much smaller than the Planck scale
(or why gravity is so weak)
 the existence of dark energy, dark matter
CMB, supernovae, structure formation, …
Quantum gravity
Superstring theory is
a natural candidate for a unified theory
including quantum gravity
The testing ground for superstring theory
2 amazing predictions of Einstein’s general relativity
Big bang
Black hole
singularities
Quantum effects of gravity become crucial.
Important developments in the 90s
 Gauge-gravity duality (e.g., AdS/CFT correspondence)
Maldacena (1997), Gubser-Klebanov-Polyakov, Witten (1998)
 Gauge theory description of black hole thermodynamics
 Correspondence at the level of local operators
 Matrix model formulation of superstring/M theories
Banks-Fischler-Shenker-Susskind (1996),
Ishibashi-Kawai-Kitazawa-Tsuchiya (1997)
 Dynamical origin of space-time
 Applications to the physics beyond the Standard Model
Monte Carlo simulation provides an important tool
to explore these two directions.

An important feature of the Lorentzian model

A conventional approach was:
Wick rotation

 Partition function becomes finite.

We look for a Lie algebraic solution :
c.f.) Euclidean model
Chatzistavrakidis arXiv:1108.1107 [hep-th]
Motivated by Monte Carlo results, we restrict ourselves to
and look for solutions with SO(3) symmetry.
From the complete list of real Lie algebras with 4 generators
the one with SO(3) symmetry is UNIQUE !
Others = 0
The unitary irreducible representations of
others = 0
can be classified into 2 categories
1) trivial 1d representations
2) infinite-dimensional representations

Eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian of a 1d harmonic oscillator
Using a direct sum of the non-trivial representations,
