Title

Abstract

Tensor models provide a generating function for discrete higher-dimensional quantum geometries, that is, spin foams and dynamical triangulations. In this context, they have the potential to tackle many of the challenges faced by discrete approaches - the extraction of a large-scale continuum limit, the identification of a diffeomorphism algebra and the development of analytic control of the sum over triangulations, to name but a few. We shall present a brief review of the formalism and recent results, with a view on future directions.
