Scale-invariant Gravity: Geometrodynamics
We present a scale-invariant theory, conformal gravity, which closely resembles the geometrodynamical formulation of general relativity (GR). While previous attempts to create scaleinvariant theories of gravity have been based on Weyl’s idea of a compensating field, our direct approach dispenses with this and is built by extension of the method of best matching w.r.t scaling developed in the pa...
متن کاملInvariant Actions for Noncommutative Gravity
Two main problems face the construction of noncommutative actions for gravity with star products: the complex metric and finding an invariant measure. The only gauge groups that could be used with star products are the unitary groups. I propose an invariant gravitational action in D = 2n dimensions based on the constrained gauge group U(2) broken down to U(2) for n > 2. When n = 2 the gauge gro...
متن کاملScale-invariant Gravity: Particle Dynamics
A new and universal method for implementing scale invariance, called best matching, is presented. It extends to scaling the method introduced by Bertotti and the author to create a fully relational dynamics that satisfies Mach’s principle. The method is illustrated here in the context of non-relativistic gravitational particle dynamics. It leads to far stronger predictions than general Newtonia...
متن کاملScale-invariant gravity: Spacetime recovered
The configuration space of general relativity is superspace the space of all Riemannian 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms. However, it has been argued that the configuration space for gravity should be conformal superspace the space of all Riemannian 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms and conformal transformations. Recently a manifestly 3-dimensional theory was constructed with conformal superspac...
متن کاملFinite diffeomorphism-invariant observables in quantum gravity.
Two sets of spatially diffeomorphism invariant operators are constructed in the loop representation formulation of quantum gravity. This is done by coupling general relativity to an antisymmetric tensor gauge field and using that field to pick out sets of surfaces, with boundaries, in the spatial three manifold. The two sets of observables then measure the areas of these surfaces and the Wilson...
