Self-consistence of Semi-classical Gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
Simon argued that the semi-classical theory of gravity, unless with some of its solutions excluded, is unacceptable for reasons of both self-consistency and experiment, and that it has to be replaced by a constrained semi-classical theory. We examined whether the evidence is conclusive. PACS Number: 04.20-q

Qualitative Approach to Semi-Classical Loop Quantum Cosmology
Recently the mechanism was found which allows avoidance of the cosmological singularity within the semi-classical formulation of Loop Quantum Gravity. Numerical studies show that the presence of self-interaction potential of the scalar field allows generation of initial conditions for successful slow-roll inflation. In this paper qualitative analysis of dynamical system, corresponding to cosmol...

The " reliability horizon " for semi-classical quantum gravity quantifies the extent to which we should trust semi-classical quantum gravity, and gives a handle on just where the " Planck regime " resides. The key obstruction to pushing semi-classical quantum gravity into the Planck regime is often the existence of large metric fluctuations, rather than a large back-reaction.
متن کاملSome Remarks on the Semi-Classical Limit of Quantum Gravity
One of the most important issues in quantum gravity is to identify its semi-classical regime. First the issue is to define for we mean by a semi-classical theory of quantum gravity, then we would like to use it to extract physical predictions. Writing an effective theory on a flat background is a way to address this problem and I explain how the non-commutative spacetime of deformed special rel...
متن کاملGeometric Model of Black Hole Quantum N-portrait, Extradimensions and Thermodynamics
Recently a short scale modified black hole metric, known as holographic metric, has been proposed in order to capture the self-complete character of gravity. In this paper we show that such a metric can reproduce some geometric features expected from the quantum N-portrait beyond the semi-classical limit. We show that for a generic N this corresponds to having an effective energy momentum tenso...
متن کاملTime and Entropy from Semi-classical Tunneling of the Cosmological Scale Function
Two major apparently unrelated problems, that of the origin of time in the universe associated with quantum gravity and of the entropy in de Sitter cosmological models, are found to have their origin in a single physical phenomenon: the semi-classical tunneling through a classically forbidden region of the cosmological scale factor. In this region there is a mixing of the states of quantum matt...
