朴素量子引力

Naive Quantum Gravity

Roderick Sutherland

AI总结:

本文提出一种量子引力的非主流路径,通过引入源的初始与最终边界条件消除量子理论的概率要素,使量子形式主义与广义相对论兼容,可构建出可行的量子引力理论。

摘要:

本文描述了一种通往量子引力理论的可能替代路径。常规路径是对引力场进行量子化,以引入量子力学特有的统计结构;而本文采用的方法则是通过引入源的初始边界条件之外的最终边界条件,消除量子理论的概率要素,使相关量子形式主义与广义相对论的非统计性质相兼容,从而可轻松构建出可行的理论。本文认为,由于缺乏实验指导和理论共识,考虑这类非主流想法是合理的。

英文摘要:

A possible alternative route to a quantum theory of gravity is described. The usual path quantises the gravitational field in order to introduce the statistical structure characteristic of quantum mechanics. The procedure followed here instead is to remove the probabilistic element of quantum theory by using the less-common technique of introducing final boundary conditions as well as initial on the source. The relevant quantum formalism then becomes compatible with the non-statistical nature of general relativity and a viable theory can be constructed without difficulty. The view taken here is that the lack of both experimental guidance and theoretical consensus lends justification to considering such less mainstream ideas.
