abstract

We provide a brief overview of tensor models and group field theories, focusing on their main common features. Both frameworks arose in the context of quantum gravity research, and can be understood as higher-dimensional generalizations of matrix models. We describe the common combinatorial structure underlying such models and review some of the key mathematical results that have been obtained in this area. Of central importance is the discovery of a new family of large $N$ expansions for random tensors. It has driven applications of tensor models to random geometry and non-perturbative local quantum field theory, and has also enabled the development of rigorous renormalization methods for group field theories and other non-local quantum field theories.

  1. Multiple-Order Tensor Field Theory: Enumeration of unitary invariant observables

    math-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Burnside-based enumeration formula, Theorem 4, counts unitary invariant tensor contractions built from fields of multiple orders, recovers known fixed-order counts as a special case, and generates new integer sequences.

  2. An Exactly Soluble Group Field Theory

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A non-interacting group field theory exactly reproduces the Husain-Kuchar model's spinfoam amplitudes and Fock space, bridging canonical and covariant quantization approaches.

  3. Quantum Gravity, Hydrodynamics and Emergent Cosmology: A Collection of Perspectives

    gr-qc 2024-11 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    The paper argues that an effective 'hydrodynamics on superspace' framework, realized in TGFT condensate cosmology, can unify quantum gravity and cosmology.
