Celestial holography: An asymptotic symmetry perspective

L Donnay - Physics Reports, 2024 - Elsevier
We review the role that infinite-dimensional symmetries arising at the boundary of
asymptotically flat spacetimes play in the context of the celestial holography program. Once …

Quantum gravity in 30 questions

R Loll, G Fabiano, D Frattulillo, F Wagner - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
Quantum gravity is the missing piece in our understanding of the fundamental interactions
today. Given recent observational breakthroughs in gravity, providing a quantum theory for …

The functional renormalization group in quantum gravity

F Saueressig - arXiv preprint arXiv:2302.14152, 2023 - Springer
The gravitational asymptotic safety program envisions a high-energy completion of the

The paradigm of quantum cosmology through Dunkl fractional Laplacian operators and fractal dimensions

RA El-Nabulsi, W Anukool - Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2023 - Elsevier
The semi-classical regime of fractional quantum cosmology has been discussed based on
the Wheeler-DeWitt equation and ADM-Hamiltonian formalism. Fractionality has been …

Constraining the Barbero-Immirzi parameter from the duration of inflation in loop quantum cosmology

LN Barboza, G Levy, LL Graef, RO Ramos - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We revisit the predictions for the duration of the inflationary phase after the bounce in loop
quantum cosmology. We present our analysis for different classes of inflationary potentials …

Curvature correlators in nonperturbative 2D Lorentzian quantum gravity

J van der Duin, R Loll - The European Physical Journal C, 2024 - Springer
Correlation functions are ubiquitous tools in quantum field theory from both a fundamental
and a practical point of view. However, up to now their use in theories of quantum gravity …

Weyl curvature hypothesis in light of quantum backreaction at cosmological singularities or bounces

BL Hu - Universe, 2021 - mdpi.com
The Weyl curvature constitutes the radiative sector of the Riemann curvature tensor and
gives a measure of the anisotropy and inhomogeneities of spacetime. Penrose's 1979 Weyl …

Comparative Ontology of Theories of Space and Time

EE Klingman - Journal of Modern Physics, 2023 - scirp.org
With a few exceptions, physics theories are based in a conception of time and space; our
two major theories, general relativity, and quantum field theory, differ in their conceptions …

Modified uncertainty relations from classical and quantum gravity

F Wagner - arXiv preprint arXiv:2210.05281, 2022 - arxiv.org
A good hundred years after the necessity for a quantum theory of gravity was acknowledged
by Albert Einstein, the search for it continues to be an ongoing endeavour. Nevertheless, the …
