Minimal Length, Measurability and Gravity
The present work is a continuation of the previous papers written by the author on the subject. In terms of the measurability (or measurable quantities) notion introduced in a minimal length theory, first the consideration is given to a quantum theory in the momentum representation. The same terms are used to consider the Markov gravity model that here illustrates the general approach to studie...
متن کاملMinimal Length Scale Scenarios for Quantum Gravity
We review the question of whether the fundamental laws of nature limit our ability to probe arbitrarily short distances. First, we examine what insights can be gained from thought experiments for probes of shortest distances, and summarize what can be learned from different approaches to a theory of quantum gravity. Then we discuss some models that have been developed to implement a minimal len...
متن کاملMetric-scalar gravity with torsion and the measurability of the non-minimal coupling
The “measurability” of the non-minimal coupling is discussed by considering the correction to the Newtonian static potential in the semi-classical approach. The coefficient of the “gravitational Darwin term” (GDT) gets redefined by the non-minimal torsion scalar couplings. Based on a similar analysis of the GDT in the effective field theory approach to non-minimal scalar we conclude that for re...
متن کامل0 Measurability of the non - minimal scalar coupling constant
The ”measurability” of the non-minimal coupling is discussed in the context of the effective field theory of gravity. Although there is no obvious motive for excluding a non-minimal scalar coupling from the theory, we conclude that for reasonable values of the coupling constant it makes only a very small correction.

متن کاملMinimal length in quantum gravity and the fate of Lorentz invariance
The paper highlights a recent debate in the quantum gravity community on the status of Lorentz invariance in theories that introduce a fundamental length scale, and in particular in deformed special relativity. Two arguments marshaled against that theory are examined and found wanting. & 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. When citing this paper, please use the full journal title Studies in...
