Abstract: We propose a new systematic framework for deriving gravitational dynamics directly from quantum field theory, inspired by TTTbar-like deformations. Specifically, we explore how certain irrelevant, yet exactly solvable, deformations of quantum field theories can encode emergent geometric or gravitational degrees of freedom. This approach provides a controlled, non-perturbative route for realizing holographic dualities, where spacetime geometry arises from the flow of field-theoretic data. Our method extends the idea of TTbar deformations beyond two dimensions and suggests a universal mechanism through which gravity may emerge from purely quantum or statistical field-theoretic principles, without assuming a pre-existing gravitational background.
