Description
This talk will be a follow up of Latham Boyle’s talk on discretizing a chiral gauge theory on the lattice. Building up on the natural geometrical discretization of Kahler-Dirac fermions with different polyforms fields (and the tetrad and spin-connection one forms), we will further see how this geometrical picture also suggests a novel formulation of Einstein gravity on the lattice. We will discuss how this discretization scheme preserves the symmetries and (co)homological properties of the continuum manifold. (Joint work with Latham Boyle.)
