Recensione

"It was a pleasure to look through this book. It is apparent that every effort was made to write a complete advanced text on the current status of triangulations in quantum gravity. This book is a must for anyone in this field." E. J. Janse van Rensburg, Mathematical Reviews

Descrizione del libro

This graduate/research level text describes in a unified fashion the statistical mechanics of random walks, random surfaces and random higher dimensional manifolds with an emphasis on the geometrical aspects of the theory and applications to the quantisation of strings, gravity and topological field theory.
