Abstract:
Based on recent work on simplicial diffeomorphisms in colored group field
theories, we develop a representation of the colored Boulatov model, in which
the GFT fields depend on variables associated to vertices of the associated
simplicial complex, as opposed to edges. On top of simplifying the action of
diffeomorphisms, the main advantage of this representation is that the GFT
Feynman graphs have a different stranded structure, which allows a direct
identification of subgraphs associated to bubbles, and their evaluation is
simplified drastically. As a first important application of this formulation,
we derive new scaling bounds for the regularized amplitudes, organized in terms
of the genera of the bubbles, and show how the pseudo-manifolds configurations
appearing in the perturbative expansion are suppressed as compared to
manifolds. Moreover, these bounds are proved to be optimal.
