Vacuum energy: quantum hydrodynamics vs quantum gravity
We compare quantum hydrodynamics and quantum gravity. They share many common features, both have quadratic divergences, and both lead to the problem of the vacuum energy, which in the quantum gravity transforms to the cosmological constant problem. We show that in quantum liquids the vacuum energy density is not determined by the quantum zero-point energy of the phonon modes. The vacuum energy ...
متن کاملDark Matter, Quantum Gravity, Vacuum Energy, and Lorentz Invariance
In earlier work , we introduced a theory which implies violation of Lorentz invariance for (i) fermions at extremely high energy and (ii) fundamental scalar bosons which have not yet been observed. On the other hand, the theory appears to be in agreement with even the most sensitive experimental and observational tests of Lorentz invariance that are currently available, since many features of t...
متن کاملLarge “Dipolar” Vacuum Fluctuations in Quantum Gravity
We study a novel set of gravitational field configurations, called “dipolar zero modes”, which give an exactly null contribution to the Einstein action and are thus candidates to become large fluctuations in the quantized theory. They are generated by static unphysical sources satisfying (up to terms of order G) the simple condition ∫ dxT00(x) = 0. We give two explicit examples of virtual sourc...
متن کاملYang–Mills vacuum structure and quantum gravity
Using renormalization group methods, we calculate the derivative expansion of the effective Lagrangian for a covariantly constant gauge field in curved spacetime. Curvature affects the vacuum; in particular it could induce phase transitions between different vacua. We also consider the effect of quantum fluctuations of the metric, in the context of a renormalizable R theory. In this case the cr...
متن کاملLoop Quantum Gravity Vacuum with Nondegenerate Geometry
In loop quantum gravity, states of the gravitational field turn out to be excitations over a vacuum state that is sharply peaked on a degenerate spatial geometry. While this vacuum is singled out as fundamental due to its invariance properties, it is also important to consider states that describe non-degenerate geometries. Such states have features of Bose condensate ground states. We discuss ...
