| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The thermodynamic and holographic nature of gravity should be a clue to identifying the fundamental dynamical variables of quantum gravity. In order to explain such nature, we regarded the dynamics of gravity as a relativistic nonequilibrium relaxation process, and investigated nonequilibrium statistical thermodynamics from various aspects. In particular, we successfully constructed "thermodynamics of shape" in a generally covariant way and developed quantum field theories on curved spacetimes. Also, as a constructive definition of quantum gravity based on membrane dynamics, we advocated a novel matrix model that generates the random volumes of membranes. Furthermore, we introduced the distance between configurations in Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations, which generate relaxation processes in a computer. This is the first example of the emergence of geometry from nonequilibrium relaxation processes.
