Abstract:
We discuss the attempts to represent quantum gravity in more than two dimensions as a sum over random triangulations. The results are mainly of numerical nature, obtained by Monte Carlo simulations in three and four dimensions. In addition to pure Einstein gravity we also consider generalizations where -terms or matter fields are added to the Einstein action.- lectures: Zakopane 1992/06/02
