Gravity and the Quantum Potential
We review some material connecting gravity and the quantum potential and provide a few new observations. The main theme is that in utilizing a conformal (Weyl) geometry the metric plus the Weyl vector plus the quantummass field determine spacetime geometry. There are strong connections to deBroglie-Bohm style ideas in quantum theory.
متن کاملFluctuations, Gravity, and the Quantum Potential
We show how the quantum potential arises in various ways and trace its connection to quantum fluctuations and Fisher information along with its realization in terms of Weyl curvature. It represents a genuine quantization factor for certain classical systems as well as an expression for quantum matter in gravity theories of Weyl-Dirac type. Many of the facts and examples are extracted from the l...
متن کاملPotential Energy in Quantum Gravity
We give a general expression for the static potential energy of the gravitational interaction of two massive particles, in terms of an invariant vacuum expectation value of the quantized gravitational field. This formula holds for functional integral formulations of euclidean quantum gravity, regularized to avoid conformal instability. It could be regarded as the analogue of the Wilson loop of ...
متن کاملNewtonian potential in quantum Regge gravity
We show how the Newtonian potential between two heavy masses can be computed in simplicial quantum gravity. On the lattice we compute correlations between Wilson lines associated with the heavy particles and which are closed by the lattice periodicity. We check that the continuum analog of this quantity reproduces the Newtonian potential in the weak field expansion. In the smooth anti-de Sitter...
متن کاملGravity and the Quantum
The goal of this article is to present a broad perspective on quantum gravity for non-experts. After a historical introduction, key physical problems of quantum gravity are illustrated. While there are a number of interesting and insightful approaches to address these issues, over the past two decades sustained progress has primarily occurred in two programs: string theory and loop quantum grav...
