CAUSAL DYNAMICAL TRIANGULATIONS AND THE SEARCH FOR A THEORY OF QUANTUM GRAVITY

Causal dynamical triangulations provide a nonperturbative regularization of a theory of quantum gravity. We describe how it connects to the asymptotic safety program and to the Hořava–Lifshitz gravity theory and present the most recent results from computer simulations.
