Scaling relations in four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity are proposed using the concept of the geodesic distance. Based on the analogy of a loop length distribution in the two-dimensional case, the scaling relations of the boundary volume distribution in four dimensions are discussed in three regions: the strong-coupling phase, the critical point and the weak-coupling phase. In each phase a different scaling behavior is found.

A thorough numerical examination for the field theory of 4D quantum gravity (QG) with a special emphasis on the conformal mode dependence has been studied. More clearly than before, we obtain the string susceptibility exponent of the partition function by using the Grand-Canonical Monte-Carlo method. Taking thorough care of the update method, the simulation is made for 4D Euclidean simplicial manifold coupled to $N_X$ scalar fields and $N_A$ U(1) gauge fields. The numerical results suggest that 4D simplicial quantum gravity (SQG) can be reached to the continuum theory of 4D QG. We discuss the significant property of 4D SQG.
Four-dimensional(4D) spacetime structures are investigated using the concept of the geodesic distance in the simplicial quantum gravity. On the analogy of the loop length distribution in 2D case, the scaling relations of the boundary volume distribution in 4D are discussed in various coupling regions i.e. strong-coupling phase, critical point and weak-coupling phase. In each phase the different scaling relations are found.

Four-dimensional (4D) simplicial quantum gravity coupled to both scalar fields (N_X) and gauge fields (N_A) has been studied using Monte-Carlo simulations. The matter dependence of the string susceptibility exponent gamma^{(4)} is estimated. Furthermore, we compare our numerical results with Background-Metric-Independent (BMI) formulation conjectured to describe the quantum field theory of gravity in 4D. The numerical results suggest that the 4D simplicial quantum gravity is related to the conformal gravity in 4D. Therefore, we propose a phase structure in detail with adding both scalar and gauge fields and discuss the possibility and the property of a continuum theory of 4D Euclidean simplicial quantum gravity.

The statistical properties of dynamically triangulated manifolds (DT mfds) in terms of the geodesic distance have been studied numerically. The string susceptibility exponents for the boundary surfaces in three-dimensional DT mfds were measured numerically. For spherical boundary surfaces, we obtained a result consistent with the case of a two-dimensional spherical DT surface described by the matrix model. This gives a correct method to reconstruct two-dimensional random surfaces from three-dimensional DT mfds. Furthermore, a scaling property of the volume distribution of minimum neck baby universes was investigated numerically in the case of three and four dimensions, and we obtain a common scaling structure near to the critical points belonging to the strong coupling phase in both dimensions. We have evidence for the existence of a common fractal structure in three- and four-dimensional simplicial quantum gravity.
The fractal properties of four-dimensional Euclidean simplicial manifold generated by the dynamical triangulation are analyzed on the geodesic distance D between two vertices instead of the usual scale between two simplices. In order to make more unambiguous measurement of the fractal dimension, we employ a different approach from usual, by measuring the box-counting dimension which is computed by counting the number of spheres with the radius D within the manifold. The numerical result is consistent to the result of the random walk model in the branched polymer region. We also measure the box-counting dimension of the manifold with additional matter fields. Numerical results suggest that the fractal dimension takes value of slightly more than 4 near the critical point. Furthermore, we analyze the correlation functions as functions of the geodesic distance. Numerically, it is suggested that the fractal structure of four-dimensional simplicial manifold can be properly analyzed in terms of the distance between two vertices. Moreover, we show that the behavior of the correlation length regards the phase structure of 4D simplicial manifold.
