Pure gravity and conical defects
Abstract We revisit the spectrum of pure quantum gravity in AdS3. The computation of the torus partition function will — if computed using a gravitational path integral that includes only smooth saddle points — lead to a density of states which is not physically sensible, as it has a negative degene...
