چکیده
1. Introduction Certain difficulties associated with any theory of quantum gravity stem from the different mathematical framing of our gravity and quantum theories. While general relativity is based on a real, deterministic, differentiable manifold structure, the elements of quantum theory are complex-valued and probabilistic. Consider two ways to reconcile these differences by placing one of the theories into the context of the other:

It is shown that a transition from a multidimensional cosmological model with one internal space of the dimension d 1 to the effective tree-level bosonic string corresponds to an infinite number of the internal dimensions: d 1 → ∞.

We investigate the space M of classical solutions to Witten’s formulation of 2+1 gravity on the manifold R×T . M is connected, but neither Hausdorff nor a manifold. However, removing from M a set of measure zero yields a connected manifold which is naturally viewed as the cotangent bundle over a non-Hausdorff base space. Avenues towards quantizing the theory are discussed in view of the relatio...

The model of D4 open string with non-Grassmann spinning variables is considered. The non-linear gauge, which is invariant both Poincaré and scale transformations of the space-time, is used for subsequent studies. It is shown that the reduction of the canonical Poisson structure from the original phase space to the surface of constraints and gauge conditions gives the degenerated Poisson bracket...

The Future Tube T + n of n-dimensional Minkowski spacetime may be identified with the reduced phase space P , or " space of motions " of a particle moving in (n + 1)-dimensional Anti-de-Sitter Spacetime. Both are isomorphic to a homogeneous bounded domain in C n whose Shilov boundary may be identified with n-dimensional conformally compactified Minkowski spacetime.

The behavior of a quantum test particle satisfying the Klein-Gordon equation in a certain class of 4 dimensional stationary space-times is examined. In a space-time of a spinning cosmic string, the wave function of a particle in a box is shown to acquire a geometric phase when the box is transported around a closed path surrounding the string. When interpreted as an Aharonov-Anandan geometric p...
