Abstract: We show that for each , there is a unique metric (i.e., distance function) associated with -Liouville quantum gravity (LQG). More precisely, we show that for the whole-plane Gaussian free field (GFF) , there is a unique random metric associated with the Riemannian metric tensor "" on which is characterized by a certain list of axioms: it is locally determined by and it transforms appropriately when either adding a continuous function to or applying a conformal automorphism of (i.e., a complex affine transformation). Metrics associated with other variants of the GFF can be constructed using local absolute continuity. The -LQG metric can be constructed explicitly as the scaling limit of Liouville first passage percolation (LFPP), the random metric obtained by exponentiating a mollified version of the GFF. Earlier work by Ding, Dub'edat, Dunlap, and Falconet (2019) showed that LFPP admits non-trivial subsequential limits. This paper shows that the subsequential limit is unique and satisfies our list of axioms. In the case when , our metric coincides with the -LQG metric constructed in previous work by Miller and Sheffield, which in turn is equivalent to the Brownian map for a certain variant of the GFF. For general , we conjecture that our metric is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of appropriate weighted random planar map models, equipped with their graph distance. We include a substantial list of open problems.
