Elementary Introduction to Quantum Geometry

by Jan Ambjorn

This graduate textbook provides an introduction to quantum gravity, when spacetime is two-dimensional. The quantization of gravity is the main missing piece of theoretical physics, but in two dimensions it can be done explicitly with elementary mathematical tools, but it still has most of the conceptional riddles present in higher dimensional (not yet known) quantum gravity.

It provides an introduction to a very interdisciplinary field,...
