No Presentism in Quantum Gravity
This essay offers a reaction to the recent resurgence of presentism in the philosophy of time. What is of particular interest in this renaissance is that a number of recent arguments supporting presentism are crafted in an untypically naturalistic vein, breathing new life into a metaphysics of time with a bad track record of cohabitation with modern physics. Against this trend, the present essa...
متن کاملLorentz Violation as a Quantum-gravity Signature *
Many theoretical approaches to quantum gravity predict the breakdown of Lorentz symmetry at Planck energies. Kinematical cosmic-ray studies are a sensitive tool in the search for such effects. This talk discusses the construction of test dispersion relations for such analyses.
متن کاملNo chiral truncation of quantum log gravity?
At the classical level, chiral gravity may be constructed as a consistent truncation of a larger theory called log gravity by requiring that left-moving charges vanish. In turn, log gravity is the limit of topologically massive gravity (TMG) at a special value of the coupling (the chiral point). We study the situation at the level of linearized quantum fields, focussing on a unitary quantizatio...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity from Quantum Computation
A theory of quantum gravity based on quantum computation is proposed. In this theory, fundamental processes are described in terms of quantum information processing: the geometry of space-time is a construct, derived from the underlying quantum computation. Explicit mechanisms are provided for the back-reaction of the metric to computational 'matter,' black-hole evaporation, holography, and qua...
متن کاملQuantum Theory from Quantum Gravity
We provide a mechanism by which, from a background independent model with no quantum mechanics, quantum theory arises in the same limit in which spatial properties appear. Starting with an arbitrary abstract graph as the microscopic model of spacetime, our ansatz is that the microscopic dynamics can be chosen so that 1) the model has a low low energy limit which reproduces the non-relativistic ...
