General Covariance in Quantum Gravity
The question of general covariance in quantum gravity is considered in the first post-Newtonian approximation. Transformation properties of observable quantities under deformations of a reference frame, induced by variations of the gauge conditions fixing general invariance, are determined. It is found that the one-loop contributions violate the principle of general covariance, in the sense tha...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity without General Relativity
The quantum field theory of gravitation is constructed in terms of Lagrangian density of Dirac fields which couple to the electromagnetic field Aμ as well as the gravitational field G. The gravity appears in the mass term as m(1+gG)ψ̄ψ with the coupling constant of g. In addition to the gravitational force between fermions, the electromagnetic field Aμ interacts with the gravity as the fourth or...
متن کاملQuantum general invariance and loop gravity
A quantum physical projector is proposed for generally covariant theories which are derivable from a Lagrangian. The projector is the quantum analogue of the integral over the generators of finite one-parameter subgroups of the gauge symmetry transformations which are connected to the identity. Gauge variables are retained in this formalism, thus permitting the construction of spacetime area an...
متن کاملGeneral Relativistic Effects of Gravity in Quantum Mechanics a
We present a general relativistic framework for studying gravitational effects in quantum mechanical phenomena. We concentrate our attention on the case of ultra-relativistic, spin1/2 particles propagating in Kerr spacetime. The two-component Weyl equation with the general relativistic corrections is obtained in the case of slowly rotating, weak gravitational field. Our approach is also applied...
