Description

We discuss the calculation of Euclidean correlation functions in lattice quantum gravity and in the low energy effective theory using perturbation theory. In the low energy theory the leading contributions are universal predictions of quantum gravity, depending only on Newton's constant, thus providing an important test for lattice calculations. We present the calculations in the low energy theory and give a first look at comparisons to numerical lattice results.
