چکیده

Quantum geometry is a key quantity that distinguishes electrons in crystal from those the vacuum. Its study continues to provide insights into quantum materials, uncovering new design principles for their discovery. However, unlike Berry curvature, an intuitive understanding of metric lacking. Here, we show Bloch leads momentum-space gravity. In particular, by extending semiclassical formulation electron dynamics second order, find resulting velocity modified geodesic term and becomes dual Lorentz force curved space. We calculate this response magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene moir\'e systems with flat bands are ideal candidates observe effect. Extending analogy gravity further, Einstein field equations remains sourceless pure states, while mixed states it acquires source depends on von Neumann entropy small entropies. compare stress-energy equation weak-field limit general relativity, conclude gravitational potential. Consequently, resembling entropic force. Our results highlight connections between geometry, gravity, information, prompting further exploration materials.

Entropy and Quantum Gravity

We give a review, in the style of an essay, of the author’s 1998 matter-gravity entanglement hypothesis which, unlike the standard approach to entropy based on coarse-graining, offers a definition for the entropy of a closed system as a real and objective quantity. We explain how this approach offers an explanation for the Second Law of Thermodynamics in general and a non-paradoxical understand...

Quantum Geometry from the Formalism of Loop Quantum Gravity

Introducing Quantum Geometry as a consequence of the quantisation procedure of loop quantum gravity. By recasting general relativity in terms of 1 2 -flat connections, specified by the Holst’s Modification to the Palatini action, we can recast general relativity as a gauge theory. By preforming a 3+1 split of space-time a Legendre transformation can be preformed to give an expression of the Ham...

Severe constraints on Loop-Quantum-Gravity energy-momentum dispersion relation from black-hole area-entropy law

We explore a possible connection between two aspects of Loop Quantum Gravity which have been extensively studied in the recent literature: the black-hole area-entropy law and the energymomentum dispersion relation. We observe that the original Bekenstein argument for the areaentropy law implicitly requires information on the energy-momentum dispersion relation. Recent results show that in first...

Black Hole Entropy from Loop Quantum Gravity.

We argue that the statistical entropy relevant for the thermal interactions of a black hole with its surroundings is (the logarithm of) the number of quantum microstates of the hole which are distinguishable from the hole's exterior, and which correspond to a given hole's macroscopic conguration. We compute this number explicitly from rst principles, for a Schwarzschild black hole, using nonper...
