Abstract

We generalize the action of Regge calculus to include the equivalent to both a cosmological constant term and a higher derivative term involving the integral of R 2. We compare our expression for these terms with the continuum values for the regular tessellations of 2-, 3- and 4-dimensional spheres, and describe how the formalism may be applied to calculations in quantum gravity.
