چکیده

The talk centers around the question: Can general-relativistic description of physical reality be considered complete? On the way I argue how – unknown to many a physicists, even today – the “forty orders of magnitude argument” against quantum gravity phenomenology was defeated more than a quarter of a century ago, and how we now stand at the possible verge of detecting a signal for the spacetime foam, and studying the gravitationally-modified wave particle duality using superconducting quantum interference devices.

At the Interface of Quantum and Gravitational Realms

In this talk I review a series of recent conceptual developments at the interface of the quantum and gravitational realms. Wherever possible, I comment on the possibility to probe the interface experimentally. It is concluded that the underlying spacetime for a quantum theory of gravity must be non-commutative, that wave-particle duality suffers significant modification at the Planck scale, and...

Non-locality of Quantum Mechanics and the Locality of General Relativity

The conflict between the locality of general relativity, reflected in its space-time description, and the non-locality of quantum mechanics, contained in its Hilbert space description, is discussed. Gauge covariant nonlocal observables that depend on gauge fields and gravity as well as the wave function are used in order to try to understand and minimize this conflict within the frame-work of t...

Designing a hybrid quantum controller for strongly eigenstate controllable systems

 In this paper, a new quantum hybrid controller for controlling the strongly eigenstate controllable systems, is designed. For this purpose, a Lyapunov control law is implemented when the target state is in reachable set of the initial state. On the other hand, if the target state is not in the reachable set of the given initial state, based on Grover algorithm, a new interface state that the t...

Compressive and rarefactive dust-ion acoustic solitary waves in four components ‎quantum plasma with dust-charge variation

Based on quantum hydrodynamics theory (QHD), the propagation of nonlinear quantum dust-ion acoustic (QDIA) solitary waves in a ‎collision-less, unmagnetized four component quantum plasma consisting of electrons, positrons, ions and stationary negatively charged ‎dust grains with dust charge variation is investigated using reductive perturbation method. The charging current to the dust grains ca...
