The complex structure of a surface generated by the two-dimensional dynamical triangulation(DT) is determined by measuring the resistivity of the surface. It is found that surfaces coupled to matter fields have well-defined complex structures for cases when the matter central charges are less than or equal to one, while they become unstable beyond c=1. A natural conjecture that fine planar random network of resistors behave as a continuous sheet of constant resistivity is justified numerically for c<1.

Two-dimensional random surfaces are studied numerically by the dynamical triangulation method. In order to generate various kinds of random surfaces, two higher derivative terms are added to the action. The phases of surfaces in the two-dimensional parameter space are classified into three states: flat, crumpled surface, and branched polymer. In addition, there exists a special point (pure gravity) corresponding to the universal fractal surface. A new probe to detect branched polymers is proposed, which makes use of the minbu(minimum neck baby universe) analysis. This method can clearly distinguish the branched polymer phase from another according to the sizes and arrangements of baby universes. The size distribution of baby universes changes drastically at the transition point between the branched polymer and other kind of surface. The phases of surfaces coupled with multi-Ising spins are studied in a similar manner.
A method of defining the complex structure(moduli) for dynamically triangulated(DT) surfaces with torus topology is proposed. Distribution of the moduli parameter is measured numerically and compared with the Liouville theory for the surface coupled to c = 0, 1 and 2 matter. Equivalence between the dynamical triangulation and the Liouville theory is established in terms of the complex structure.
Monte Carlo simulation of gauge theories with a $theta$ term is known to be extremely difficult due to the sign problem. Recently there has been major progress in solving this problem based on the idea of complexifying dynamical variables. Here we consider the complex Langevin method (CLM), which is a promising approach for its low computational cost. The drawback of this method, however, is the existence of a condition that has to be met in order for the results to be correct. As a first step, we apply the method to 2D U(1) gauge theory on a torus with a $theta$ term, which can be solved analytically. We find that a naive implementation of the method fails because of the topological nature of the $theta$ term. In order to circumvent this problem, we simulate the same theory on a punctured torus, which is equivalent to the original model in the infinite volume limit for $ |theta| < pi$. Rather surprisingly, we find that the CLM works and reproduces the exact results for a punctured torus even at large $theta$, where the link variables near the puncture become very far from being unitary.
We classify the transitive, effective, holomorphic actions of connected complex Lie groups on complex surfaces.
We present our progress on a study of the $O(3)$ model in two-dimensions using the Tensor Renormalization Group method. We first construct the theory in terms of tensors, and show how to construct $n$-point correlation functions. We then give results for thermodynamic quantities at finite and infinite volume, as well as 2-point correlation function data. We discuss some of the advantages and challenges of tensor renormalization and future directions in which to work.
