General Relativity and Quantum Theory - Ontological Investigations
It is common to note that the two great theoretical frameworks of twentieth-century physics, quantum theory and general relativity, are prima facie incompatible. Within the physics community, the incompatibility is largely discussed on a technical level. In this paper, I would like to frame the problem more conceptually, focussing on the respective ontologies of the two frameworks. When I speak...
متن کاملQuantum Theory and Relativity
Elsewhere I describe some personal encounters with George Mackey [31]. Those discussions often returned to a common set of questions: • Does physics suggest a way to combine quantum theory, relativity, and interaction? • To what extent can one formulate such quantum physics as mathematics? • What is the present status of quantum field theory? • What new mathematics emerges? • What new insight d...
متن کاملExact Quantum Loop Results in the Theory of General Relativity †
We present a new approach to quantum general relativity based on the idea of Feynman to treat the graviton in Einstein's theory as a point particle field subject to quantum fluctuations just as any such field is in the well-known Standard Model of the electroweak and strong interactions. We show that, by using resummation techniques based on the extension of the methods of Yennie, Frautschi and...
متن کاملNon-locality in quantum field theory due to general relativity
We show that general relativity coupled to a quantum field theory generically leads to non-local effects in the matter sector. These non-local effects can be described by non-local higher dimensional operators which remarkably have an approximate shift symmetry. When applied to inflationary models, our results imply that small nonGaussianities are a generic feature of models based on general re...
متن کاملA five-dimensional extension of general relativity and quantum theory
The torsion-free de Sitter reducible metric linear connection on a fivedimensional manifold is studied in conjunction with a method of constructing spacetime via a partially restricted reference cross section of the bundle of linear frames described in earlier publications. It leads to the equation Rαβ = (1/l)gαβ where l is a fundamental length, assumed to be the Planck length. It also yields t...
