Abstract
I will motivate and discuss a computation of correlators of the volume element in gravity. Such correlators may serve as appropriate observables in a quantized theory of gravity, with the volume element corresponding to probability associated with the quantum degrees of freedom. In order to compute such correlators using the gravitational path integral, we need to specify a bulk point in a diffeomorphism-invariant manner. We discuss a solution based on an idea first proposed by Mandelstam in the 1960’s. Based on work in progress, and on arXiv:2108.10916, 2208.12204.
