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 کاملThe Semiclassical Approximation to Quantum Gravity
A detailed review is given of the semiclassical approximation to quantum gravity in the canonical framework. This includes in particular the derivation of the functional Schrödinger equation and a discussion of semiclassical time as well as the derivation of quantum gravitational correction terms to the Schrödinger equation. These terms are used to calculate energy shifts for fields in De Sitte...
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 کاملNon-local Properties in Euclidean Quantum Gravity Non-local Properties in Euclidean Quantum Gravity
In the one-loop approximation for Euclidean quantum gravity, the boundary conditions which are completely invariant under gauge transformations of metric perturbations involve both normal and tangential derivatives of the metric perturbations h 00 and h 0i , while the h ij perturbations and the whole ghost one-form are set to zero at the boundary. The corresponding one-loop divergency for pure ...
متن کاملQuasi-Local Energy in Loop Quantum Gravity
Although there is no known meaningful notion of the energy density of the gravitational field in general relativity, a few notions of quasi-local energy of gravity associated to extended but finite domains have been proposed. In this paper, the notions of quasi-local energy are studied in the framework of loop quantum gravity, in order to see whether these notions can be carried out at quantum ...
