Fine structure of Jackiw-Teitelboim quantum gravity

Abstract We investigate structural aspects of JT gravity through its BF description. In particular, we provide evidence that JT gravity should be thought of as (a coset of) the noncompact subsemigroup SL+(2, ℝ) BF theory. We highlight physical implications, including the famous Plancherel measure si...
