Description

The asymmetric ABAB-matrix model describes the transfer matrix of three-dimensional Lorentzian quantum gravity. We study perturbatively the scaling of the ABAB-matrix model in the neighborhood of it's symmetric solution and deduce the associated renormalization of three-dimensional Lorentzian quantum gravity.
