引力低能侧的新观点

New views on the low-energy side of gravity

Federico Piazza

摘要:

常识将引力的所有未解和理论上具有挑战性的方面与其紫外线完成联系起来。然而,似乎有几个困难已经在低能量的重力的有效框架,很可能是从高能量的结构分离。这些问题包括黑洞信息悖论、宇宙学常数问题以及解释我们的宇宙学观测所需的相当复杂和精细的模型构建。我回顾了一些正在进行的研究,旨在推广和扩展低能量框架的重力。以量子信息的方式,在给定时间的空间区域被视为量子子系统,而不是子流形。这个想法是通过“生活在其中”的物质场的量子自由度来定义一个空间区域。我展示了如何实现标准的半经典重力(“标准本地化”)的对应子系统/子流形,并讨论了替代本地化计划的影响。通过进一步利用子系统的描述,我然后考虑的可能性,通常的GR度量流形的描述可能会打破在红外。这对在最大尺度上描述宇宙和暗能量都有影响。

英文摘要:

Common wisdom associates all the unraveled and theoretically challenging aspects of gravity with its UV-completion. However, there appear to be few difficulties afflicting the effective framework for gravity already at low energy, that are likely to be detached from the high-energy structure. Those include the black hole information paradox, the cosmological constant problem and the rather involved and fine tuned model building required to explain our cosmological observations. I review some on-going research that aims to generalize and extend the low-energy framework for gravity. In a quantum informational fashion, regions of space at a given time are treated and described as quantum subsystems, rather than submanifolds. The idea is to define a region of space through the quantum degrees of freedom of the matter fields "living therein". I show how the correspondence sub-system/sub-manifold is realized in standard semi-classical gravity ("standard localization") and discuss the implications of alternative localization schemes. By exploiting further the subsystem description, I then consider the possibility that the usual GR metric manifold description might break down in the infra-red. This has implications on the description of the Universe on the largest scales and on dark energy.
