| Title: | Quantum pre-geometry models for Quantum Gravity |
| Authors: | Francesco, Caravelli |

| Abstract: | In this thesis we review the status of an approach to Quantum Gravity through lattice toy
models, Quantum Graphity. In particular, we describe the two toy models introduced in the
literature and describe with a certain level of details the results obtained so far. We emphasize the connection between Quantum Graphity and emergent gravity, and the relation with
Variable Speed of Light theories. |
