Propagators for a Quantized Scalar Field in Some Isotropic Universe
To make clearer the relation examined in a previous paper between Chitre and Hartle's path-integral quantization procedure and our canonical one for a massive scalar field in a special isotropic universe, various propagators such as the 4-dimensional commutation func­ tion, the elementary solution and the associated Feynman propagator are explicitly deter­ mined. Owing to the determination, there arises a new changing procedure superior to the previous one from the isotropic expanding universe to the Minkowski space-time. Thus it is shown without any ambiguity that both the path-integral quantization procedure and our canonical one leading to the same pair-creation o£ particles as Chitre and Hartle's cannot recover the usual theory for a free field in the limit when the cosmic expansion disappears. (Notice, however, that our quantization procedure permits another case which can recover the Minkowski theory for a free field in the above limit, while it gives rise to no pair-creation.) Propagators for a massless scalar field are also dealt with in connection with the problem of conformal anomaly arising in the vacuum expectation value of the stress-energy tensor for our quantized scalar field, which is common to any quantized field in a curved space-time.

A Metric Representation of Belavin's Yang-Mills Pseudoparticle Solution and Its Relation to Some Isotropic Universe
In order to investigate a physical connection between the quantum tunneling processes (vacuum-to vacuum transition or thermal radiation) of Yang-Mills 11 •*' and gravitational" pseudoparticles, T omimatsu"'<l compared several (especially, topological) properties of the Belavin and Schwarzschild solutions with each other in terms of their Euclidean metrics. For that purpose, he transformed the Belavin solution into a metric form on the basis of Carmeli's'l formalism which describes the general theory of relativity in the form of an SL (2, C) gauge field. He showed that, of the two important topological quantities P (the Pontryagin number) and X (the Euler characteristic), P= 0 and ;: '-2 for the rewritten Belavin solution, similar to the result that P= 0 and !: ~, 2 for the Schwarzschild solution. To assure the idea that the origin of radiation with a thermal nature from both pseudoparticles is due to the fact that their x's are non-vanishing, he"b' performed a path-integral approach to the quantization of a massive scalar field in the gravitational field corresponding to Belavin' s solution. The resulting energy spectrum was an incomplete thermal one because of its non -uniform temper a ture and non -zero

De Sitter metric as a self-consistent solution of the back reaction problem
Abstract The de Sitter metric is a solution of the Einstein equation even when quantum effects of matter fields are included. However between the curvature and the cosmological constant Λ changes drastically. For some values of Λ, there are two or three solutions, while there is none in some other cases. There can be even a positive curvature solution for negative Λ. These features depend on mass and spin of matter fields and the matter-curvature coupling.

Matrix models and the gravitational interaction
The superstring theory is now regarded as the most promising candidate for the unication of the Standard Model and gravity, and this eld has been rigorously investigated. However, we have seen a setback of the perturbative analysis of the superstring theory, because it has so many vacua that we have no way to determine which are the true ones. In order to remedy this problem and thus for the superstring theory to have a power to predict our real four-dimensional world, we need the nonperturbative formulation of the superstring theory. In the late 1990’s, our understanding of the nonperturbative aspects of the superstring theory have been greatly deepened. Especially, the large-N (N is the size of the matrices) reduced models have been proposed as the nonperturbative formulation of the superstring theory. One of the most promising candidates is the IIB matrix model, which is dened by the dimensional reduction of the ten-dimensional N = 1 super-Yang-Mills theory to zero dimension. It has been conjectured that this model resurrects the behavior of the string theory at the large-N limit. There have been a lot of interesting discoveries of the IIB matrix model, such as the dynamical generation of the four-dimensional spacetime and the interpretation of the dieomorphism invariance. On the other hand, there are a lot of problems to surmount, if a large-N reduced model is to be an eligible framework to unify the gravitational interaction. Firstly, it is still an enigma how we can realize the local Lorentz invariant matrix model. In addition, we need to understand how we can describe the curved spacetime more manifestly, in terms of a large-N reduced model. This thesis discusses several attempts to address these issues concerning the gravitational interaction. This thesis is based on the following works [26,38,46,60].

Monte Carlo simulations of a supersymmetric matrix model of dynamical compactification in non perturbative string theory
The IKKT or IIB matrix model has been postulated to be a non perturbative definition of superstring theory. It has the attractive feature that spacetime is dynamically generated, which makes possible the scenario of dynamical compactification of extra dimensions, which in the Euclidean model manifests by spontaneously breaking the SO(10) rotational invariance (SSB). In this work we study using Monte Carlo simulations the 6 dimensional version of the Euclidean IIB matrix model. Simulations are found to be plagued by a strong complex action problem and the factorization method is used for effective sampling and computing expectation values of the extent of spacetime in various dimensions. Our results are consistent with calculations using the Gaussian Expansion method which predict SSB to SO(3) symmetric vacua, a finite universal extent of the compactified dimensions and finite spacetime volume.

Nonperturbative studies of fuzzy spheres in a matrix model with the Chern-Simons term
Fuzzy spheres appear as classical solutions in a matrix model obtained via dimensional reduction of 3-dimensional Yang-Mills theory with the Chern-Simons term. Well-defined perturbative expansion around these solutions can be formulated even for finite matrix size, and in the case of k coincident fuzzy spheres it gives rise to a regularized U(k) gauge theory on a noncommutative geometry. Here we study the matrix model nonperturbatively by Monte Carlo simulation. The system undergoes a first order phase transition as we change the coefficient (α) of the Chern-Simons term. In the small α phase, the large-N properties of the system are qualitatively the same as in the pure Yang-Mills model (α = 0), whereas in the large α phase a single fuzzy sphere emerges dynamically. Various `multi fuzzy spheres' are observed as meta-stable states, and we argue in particular that the k coincident fuzzy spheres cannot be realized as the true vacuum in this model even in the large-N limit. We also perform one-loop calculations of various observables for arbitrary k including k = 1. Comparison with our Monte Carlo data suggests that higher order corrections are suppressed in the large-N limit.

Monte Carlo studies of the spontaneous rotational symmetry breaking in dimensionally reduced super Yang-Mills models
A bstractIt has long been speculated that the spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) of SO(D) occurs in matrix models obtained by dimensionally reducing super Yang-Mills theory in D = 6, 10 dimensions. In particular, the D = 10 case corresponds to the IIB matrix model, which was proposed as a nonperturbative formulation of superstring theory, and the SSB may correspond to the dynamical generation of four-dimensional space-time. Recently, it has been shown by using the Gaussian expansion method that the SSB indeed occurs for D = 6 and D = 10, and interesting nature of the SSB common to both cases has been suggested. Here we study the same issue from first principles by a Monte Carlo method in the D = 6 case. In spite of a severe complex-action problem, the factorization method enables us to obtain various quantities associated with the SSB, which turn out to be consistent with the previous results obtained by the Gaussian expansion method. This also demonstrates the usefulness of the factorization method as a general approach to systems with the complex-action problem or the sign problem.
