Symmetry and Gravity
universe Article Making a Quantum Universe: Symmetry and Gravity Houri Ziaeepour 1,2 1 Institut UTINAM, CNRS UMR 6213, Observatoire de Besançon, Université de Franche Compté, 41 bis ave. de l’Observatoire, BP 1615, 25010 Besançon, France; [email protected] or [email protected] 2 Mullard Space Science Laboratory, University College London, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking GU5 6NT, UK Received: 05 September 2020; Accepted: 17 October 2020; Published: 23 October 2020 Abstract: So far, none of attempts to quantize gravity has led to a satisfactory model that not only describe gravity in the realm of a quantum world, but also its relation to elementary particles and other fundamental forces. Here, we outline the preliminary results for a model of quantum universe, in which gravity is fundamentally and by construction quantic. The model is based on three well motivated assumptions with compelling observational and theoretical evidence: quantum mechanics is valid at all scales; quantum systems are described by their symmetries; universe has infinite independent degrees of freedom. The last assumption means that the Hilbert space of the Universe has SUpN Ñ 8q – area preserving Diff.pS2q symmetry, which is parameterized by two angular variables. We show that, in the absence of a background spacetime, this Universe is trivial and static. Nonetheless, quantum fluctuations break the symmetry and divide the Universe to subsystems. When a subsystem is singled out as reference—observer—and another as clock, two more continuous parameters arise, which can be interpreted as distance and time. We identify the classical spacetime with parameter space of the Hilbert space of the Universe. -
Kaluza-Klein Gravity, Concentrating on the General Rel- Ativity, Rather Than Particle Physics Side of the Subject
Kaluza-Klein Gravity J. M. Overduin Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Victoria, P.O. Box 3055, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, V8W 3P6 and P. S. Wesson Department of Physics, University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada N2L 3G1 and Gravity Probe-B, Hansen Physics Laboratories, Stanford University, Stanford, California, U.S.A. 94305 Abstract We review higher-dimensional unified theories from the general relativity, rather than the particle physics side. Three distinct approaches to the subject are identi- fied and contrasted: compactified, projective and noncompactified. We discuss the cosmological and astrophysical implications of extra dimensions, and conclude that none of the three approaches can be ruled out on observational grounds at the present time. arXiv:gr-qc/9805018v1 7 May 1998 Preprint submitted to Elsevier Preprint 3 February 2008 1 Introduction Kaluza’s [1] achievement was to show that five-dimensional general relativity contains both Einstein’s four-dimensional theory of gravity and Maxwell’s the- ory of electromagnetism. He however imposed a somewhat artificial restriction (the cylinder condition) on the coordinates, essentially barring the fifth one a priori from making a direct appearance in the laws of physics. Klein’s [2] con- tribution was to make this restriction less artificial by suggesting a plausible physical basis for it in compactification of the fifth dimension. This idea was enthusiastically received by unified-field theorists, and when the time came to include the strong and weak forces by extending Kaluza’s mechanism to higher dimensions, it was assumed that these too would be compact. This line of thinking has led through eleven-dimensional supergravity theories in the 1980s to the current favorite contenders for a possible “theory of everything,” ten-dimensional superstrings. -

Misner/Wheeler Correct About Einstein's Unified Field Theory Being Successful Author
Title – Misner/Wheeler correct about Einstein's Unified Field Theory being successful Author – Rodney Bartlett Abstract – In 1957, Charles Misner and John Wheeler, in the “Annals of Physics”, claimed Albert Einstein’s latest equations demonstrated the unified field theory. It has been argued that the gravitational fields, if known everywhere but only for a limited time, do not contain enough information about their electromagnetism to allow the future to be determined, so Einstein's unified theory fails. Physicists also argue that a unified "theory of everything" must now include not just gravity and electromagnetism, but also the weak and strong nuclear forces plus dark matter and dark energy. This article claims Misner and Wheeler were correct, and addresses all modern objections. Content - It is my belief that Charles Misner and John Wheeler were correct in 1957 when they said Einstein was successful in proving his Unified Field Theory. Einstein successfully proved the Unified Field Theory, combining gravitational and electromagnetic equations. Despite what modern science mistakenly thinks, this means everything (electromagnetism, time, space, matter, dark matter, dark energy and the nuclear forces within atoms) has no separate existence from gravitation. In the 19th century, Scottish mathematician and physicist James Clerk Maxwell unified electricity and magnetism into electromagnetism. Albert Einstein's equations say that in a universe possessing only gravitation and electromagnetism, the gravitational fields carry enough information about electromagnetism to allow the equations of Maxwell to be restated in terms of these gravitational fields. This was discovered by the mathematical physicist George Yuri Rainich (1886 -1968). England’s Professor Penrose has argued that the gravitational fields, if known everywhere but only for a limited time, do not contain enough information about their electromagnetism to allow the future to be determined, so Einstein's unified theory fails. -
Quantum Vacuum Energy Density and Unifying Perspectives Between Gravity and Quantum Behaviour of Matter
Annales de la Fondation Louis de Broglie, Volume 42, numéro 2, 2017 251 Quantum vacuum energy density and unifying perspectives between gravity and quantum behaviour of matter Davide Fiscalettia, Amrit Sorlib aSpaceLife Institute, S. Lorenzo in Campo (PU), Italy corresponding author, email: [email protected] bSpaceLife Institute, S. Lorenzo in Campo (PU), Italy Foundations of Physics Institute, Idrija, Slovenia email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. A model of a three-dimensional quantum vacuum based on Planck energy density as a universal property of a granular space is suggested. This model introduces the possibility to interpret gravity and the quantum behaviour of matter as two different aspects of the same origin. The change of the quantum vacuum energy density can be considered as the fundamental medium which determines a bridge between gravity and the quantum behaviour, leading to new interest- ing perspectives about the problem of unifying gravity with quantum theory. PACS numbers: 04. ; 04.20-q ; 04.50.Kd ; 04.60.-m. Key words: general relativity, three-dimensional space, quantum vac- uum energy density, quantum mechanics, generalized Klein-Gordon equation for the quantum vacuum energy density, generalized Dirac equation for the quantum vacuum energy density. 1 Introduction The standard interpretation of phenomena in gravitational fields is in terms of a fundamentally curved space-time. However, this approach leads to well known problems if one aims to find a unifying picture which takes into account some basic aspects of the quantum theory. For this reason, several authors advocated different ways in order to treat gravitational interaction, in which the space-time manifold can be considered as an emergence of the deepest processes situated at the fundamental level of quantum gravity. -
Gravitation Law and Source Model in the Anisotropic Geometrodynamics
Gravitation law and source model in the anisotropic geometrodynamics Sergey Siparov State University of Civil Aviation, 38 Pilotov str., St-Petersburg, 196210; Research Institute for Hyper Complex Systems in Geometry and Physics, 3 bg 1 Zavodskoy pr., Fryazino, Moscow region, 141190; Russian Federation Abstract. The GRT modification taking into account the dependence of metric on the velocities of the sources is built. It is shown that this dependence follows from the equivalence principle and from the inseparability of the field equations and geodesics equations. As it is known, the latter are the conditions of the field equations solvability, and their form coincides with Newtonian one only in the lowest approximation. The obtained modification provides the explanation for the flat character of the rotation curves of spiral galaxies, for Tully-Fisher law, for some specific features of globular clusters behavior and for the essential excess of the observable gravitational lens effect over the predicted one. Neither dark matter nor arbitrary change of dynamics equations appeared to be needed. Important cosmological consequences are obtained. Keywords: modified theory of gravity, rotation curves, Tully-Fisher law, anisotropic metric PACS: 04.20.Cv, 04.50.Kd, 95.30.Sf, 98.20.Gm, 98.52.Nr, 98.80.Es 1. INTRODUCTION The flat character of the rotation curves (RC) of spiral galaxies is the most pronounced problem of the known GRT problems on the galactic scale. This is a simple, not small and statistically verified effect which doesn’t find explanation not only in the GRT but in Newton gravity as well. It is to the fact that the orbital velocities of stars in the spiral galaxies don’t tend to zero with the distance from the center but approach constant values of the order 105m/s for all galaxies. -
Do Global Virtual Axionic Gravitons Exist?
NeuroQuantology | March 2014 | Volume 12 | Issue 1 | Page 35-39 35 Glinka LA., Do global virtual axionic gravitons exist? Do Global Virtual Axionic Gravitons Exist? Lukasz Andrzej Glinka ABSTRACT Recently, the author has proposed the global one-dimensionality conjecture which, throughout making use of the method of the primary canonical quantization of General Relativity according to the Dirac-Arnowitt-Deser-Misner Hamiltonian formulation, formally avoids the functional differential nature which is the basic obstacle of quantum geometrodynamics, a model of quantum gravity based on the Wheeler-DeWitt equation and resutling from quantization of the Einstein field equations. The emergent quantum gravity model is straightforwardly integrable in terms of the Riemann-Lebesgue integral, has an unambiguous physical interpretation within quantum theory, and introduces a consistent concept of global graviton. In this article, the axionic nature of the global gravitons, that is the hypothetical particles responsible for gravitation in the global one-dimensional quantum gravity model, is shortly described and, making use of fundamental methods of quantum field theory, the virtual states of such gravitons are generated. Key Words: global one-dimensionality conjecture; quantum gravity; quantum geometrodynamics; graviton; axion DOI Number: 10.14704/nq.2014.12.1.716 NeuroQuantology 2014; 1: 35-39 1.

Gravity Originates from Variable Energy Density of Quantum Vacuum. American Journal of Modern Physics. Vol. 3, No. 3, 2014, pp. 118-128. doi: 10.11648/j.ajmp.20140303.11 Abstract: The physical understanding of the real mechanism of gravity is one of the most important questions in Physics. As we have already shown in a previous paper, the rest and relativistic mass of an elementary particle or body can be considered as having their origin in the diminished energy density of a Quantum Vacuum, characterized by a granular structure quantized through a Planck metric. The presence of massive bodies, from the scale of elementary particles to that of stellar objects and black holes, then determines Quantum Vacuum energy density gradients. In this paper we have proposed a novel physical model in which gravity is generated by the pressure of Quantum Vacuum in the direction of its own higher to lower density due to the presence of material objects or particles. In this picture gravity is an immediate and not – propagating action – at – a – distance interaction, resulting from the Quantum Vacuum dynamics, in turn related to fundamental properties of space itself only, not requiring the existence of the hypothetical graviton.
