• Abstract: We examine the fundamental question whether a random discrete structure with the minimal number of restrictions can converge to continuous metric space. We study the geometrical properties such as the dimensionality and the curvature emerging out of the connectivity properties of uniform random graphs. In addition we introduce a simple evolution mechanism for the graph by removing one edge per a fundamental quantum of time from an initially complete graph. We show an exponential growth of the radius of the graph, that ends up in a random structure with emergent average spatial dimension $D=3$ and zero curvature $K=0$, resembling a flat 3D manifold, that could describe the observed space in our universe and some of its geometrical properties. In addition, we introduce a generalized action for graphs based on physical quantities on different subgraph structures that helps to recover the well known properties of spacetime as described in general relativity, like time dilation due to gravity. Also, we show how various quantum mechanical concepts such as generalized uncertainty principles based on the statistical fluctuations can emerge from random discrete models. Moreover, our approach leads to a unification of space and matter-energy, for which we propose a mass-energy-space equivalence that leads to a way to transform between empty space and matter-energy via the cosmological constant.

• Gaussian Entanglement Measure: Applications to Multipartite Entanglement of Graph States and Bosonic Field Theory [50.24983453990065]
  An entanglement measure based on the Fubini-Study metric has been recently introduced by Cocchiarella and co-workers. We present the Gaussian Entanglement Measure (GEM), a generalization of geometric entanglement measure for multimode Gaussian states. By providing a computable multipartite entanglement measure for systems with a large number of degrees of freedom, we show that our definition can be used to obtain insights into a free bosonic field theory.

  The mass of the universe is a distribution of non-zero values of gravitational constraints. A formulation of the Euclidean quantum theory of gravity is also proposed to determine the initial state. Being unrelated to ordinary matter, the distribution of its own mass affects the geometry of space.

• Continuous percolation in a Hilbert space for a large system of qubits [58.720142291102135]
  The percolation transition is defined through the appearance of the infinite cluster. We show that the exponentially increasing dimensionality of the Hilbert space makes its covering by finite-size hyperspheres inefficient. Our approach to the percolation transition in compact metric spaces may prove useful for its rigorous treatment in other contexts.

  We argue that the holographic entropy cone can be reconstructed from more fundamental data determined solely by subadditivity of quantum entropy. This recasting of the bewildering entanglement structure of geometric states into primal building blocks paves the way to distilling the essence of holography.

Low-energy physics of the resulting moir'e structure can be mathematically described in terms of a diffeomorphism in a continuum formulation. We present an explicit toy construction of moir'e gravity, where the effective cosmological constant can be made arbitrarily small.

• Causal discrete field theory for quantum gravity [0.0]
  We study integer values on directed edges of a self-similar graph with a propagation rule. There is an infinite countable number of variants of the theory for a given self-similar graph depending on the choice of propagation rules. It combines the elements of cellular automata, causal sets, loop quantum gravity, and causal dynamical triangulations to become an excellent candidate to describe quantum gravity at the Planck scale.

• Probing chiral edge dynamics and bulk topology of a synthetic Hall system [52.77024349608834]
  Quantum Hall systems are characterized by the quantization of the Hall conductance -- a bulk property rooted in the topological structure of the underlying quantum states. Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
