Description
The literature contains several analyses suggesting that the
large-scale effective action of (2+1)-dimensional causal
dynamical triangulations has the form of a minisuperspace
model of projectable Horava-Lifshitz gravity. I weigh in on
these suggestions by reporting the results of a
comprehensive statistical analysis comparing several
candidate effective actions.
Controversial Statement: The large-scale effective action of
(3+1)-dimensional causal dynamical triangulations has the
form of a minisuperspace model of Einstein gravity.
