Some Remarks on the Semi-Classical Limit of Quantum Gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
One of the most important issues in quantum gravity is to identify its semi-classical regime. First the issue is to define for we mean by a semi-classical theory of quantum gravity, then we would like to use it to extract physical predictions. Writing an effective theory on a flat background is a way to address this problem and I explain how the non-commutative spacetime of deformed special relativity is the natural arena for such considerations. On the other hand, I discuss how the definition of the semi-classical regime can be formulated in a background independent fashion in terms of quantum information and renormalisation of geometry.

Beyond the Semi-classical Description of Black Hole Evaporation *
In the semi-classical treatment, i.e. in a classical black hole geometry, Hawking quanta emerge from trans-Planckian configurations because of scale invariance. There is indeed no scale to stop the blue-shifting effect encountered in the backward propagation towards the event horizon. On the contrary, when taking into account the gravitational interactions neglected in the semi-classical treatm...
متن کاملQuantum gravitational fluctuations and the semi-classical limit
An attempt is made to go beyond the standard semi-classical approximation for gravity in the Born-Oppenheimer decomposition of the wave-function in minisuperspace. New terms are included which correspond to quantum gravitational fluctuations on the background metric. Their existence renders the definition of the semi-classical limit rather delicate and can lead to the avoidance of the singulari...

An attempt is made to go beyond the semi-classical approximation for gravity in the Born-Oppenheimer decomposition of the wave-function in minisuperspace. New terms are included which correspond to quantum gravitational fluctuations on the background metric. They induce a back-reaction on the semi-classical background and can lead to the avoidance of the singularities the classical theory predi...
متن کاملSome remarks on generalizations of classical prime submodules
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $M$ be a unitary $R$-module. Suppose that $phi:S(M)rightarrow S(M)cup lbraceemptysetrbrace$ be a function where $S(M)$ is the set of all submodules of $M$. A proper submodule $N$ of $M$ is called an $(n-1, n)$-$phi$-classical prime submodule, if whenever $r_{1},ldots,r_{n-1}in R$ and $min M$ with $r_{1}ldots r_{n-1}min Nsetminusphi(N)$, then $r_{1...
متن کاملGeometric Model of Black Hole Quantum N-portrait, Extradimensions and Thermodynamics
Recently a short scale modified black hole metric, known as holographic metric, has been proposed in order to capture the self-complete character of gravity. In this paper we show that such a metric can reproduce some geometric features expected from the quantum N-portrait beyond the semi-classical limit. We show that for a generic N this corresponds to having an effective energy momentum tenso...
