Domain structures in quantum graphity    [PDF]

James Q. Quach, Chun-Hsu Su, Andrew M. Martin, Andrew D. Greentree
Quantum graphity offers the intriguing notion that space emerges in the low energy states of the spatial degrees of freedom of a dynamical lattice. Here we investigate metastable domain structures which are likely to exists in the low energy phase of lattice evolution. Through a simulated annealing process we explore the formation of metastable defects at domain boundaries and the effects of domain structures on the propagation of bosons. We show that these structures should have observable consequences including scattering, double imaging, and gravitational lensing-like effects.
