The radius dependence of partition functions is explicitly evaluated in the continuum field theory of a compactified boson, interacting with two-dimensional quantum gravity (noncritical string) on Riemann surfaces for the first few genera. The partition function for the torus is found to be a sum of terms proportional to R and 1/R. This is in agreement with the result of a discretized version (matrix models), but is quite different from the critical string. The supersymmetric case is also explicitly evaluated.

We present a new model of quantum gravity as a theory of random geometries given explicitly in terms of a multitrace matrix model. This is a generalization of the usual discretized random surfaces of two-dimensional quantum gravity which works away from two dimensions and captures a large class of spaces admitting a finite spectral triple. These multitrace matrix models sustain emergent geometry as well as growing dimensions and topology change.

In this letter we study the universality of the nonperturbative effects and the vacua structure of the stochastic stabilization of the matrix models which defines pure 2-D quantum gravity.

A review of the main results recently obtained in the study of two-dimensional quantum gravity is offered. The analysis of two-dimensional quantum gravity by the methods of conformal field theory is briefly described. Then the treatment of quantum gravity in terms of matrix models is explained, including the notions of continuum limit, planar approximation, and orthogonal polynomials. Correlation fonctions are also treated, as well as phases of the matrix models.
