Why does quantum field theory in curved spacetime make sense? And what happens to the algebra of observables in the thermodynamic limit?

E Witten - arXiv preprint arXiv:2112.11614, 2021 - arxiv.org
This article aims to explain some of the basic facts about the questions raised in the title,
without the technical details that are available in the literature. We provide a gentle …

Quantum field theory on curved backgrounds—a primer

M Benini, C Dappiaggi, TP Hack - International Journal of Modern …, 2013 - World Scientific
Goal of this paper is to introduce the algebraic approach to quantum field theory on curved
backgrounds. Based on a set of axioms, first written down by Haag and Kastler, this method …

Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism in the functional approach to classical field theory

K Fredenhagen, K Rejzner - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2012 - Springer
Abstract We develop the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism for classical field theory on generic
globally hyperbolic spacetimes. A crucial aspect of our treatment is the incorporation of the …

Covariant phase space, constraints, gauge and the Peierls formula

I Khavkine - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2014 - World Scientific
It is well known that both the symplectic structure and the Poisson brackets of classical field
theory can be constructed directly from the Lagrangian in a covariant way, without passing …

Coupling quantum matter and gravity

D Giulini, A Großardt, PK Schwartz - … and Quantum Gravity: From Theory to …, 2023 - Springer
In this chapter we deal with several issues one encounters when trying to couple quantum
matter to classical gravitational fields. We start with a general background discussion and …

A smooth introduction to the wavefront set

C Brouder, NV Dang, F Hélein - Journal of Physics A …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
The wavefront set of a distribution describes not only the points where the distribution is
singular, but also the'directions' of the singularities. Because of its ability to control the …

Current flow paths in deformed graphene: from quantum transport to classical trajectories in curved space

T Stegmann, N Szpak - New Journal of Physics, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
In this work we compare two fundamentally different approaches to the electronic transport
in deformed graphene:(a) the condensed matter approach in which currentflow paths are …

Is gravitational entanglement evidence for the quantization of spacetime?

MK Döner, A Großardt - Foundations of Physics, 2022 - Springer
Experiments witnessing the entanglement between two particles interacting only via the
gravitational field have been proposed as a test whether gravity must be quantized. In the …
