Quantum gravity is the field of theoretical physics attempting to unify the theory of quantum mechanics, which describes three of the fundamental forces of nature, with general relativity, the theory of the fourth fundamental force: gravity. The ultimate goal is a unified framework for all fundamental forces -- a theory of everything. This book examines state-of-art research in this field.
Preface; Fluctuations, Gravity, and the Quantum Potential; Quantum States of Neutrons in the Earth’s Gravitational Field: State of the Art, Applications, Perspectives; Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Gravity, and Approximate Lorentz Invariance from a Classical Phase-Boundary Universe; Kinetic Quantum Theory of Gravity; Semi-classical Reductive Quantum Gravity; Quantum Riemannian Geometry and Black Holes; Index.
