Action-Angle Variables in Quantum Gravity

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2025-10-30 v1

Abstract

We formulate an argument, based on the use of the action-angle variables and the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule, to the effect that if there exists the smallest possible non-zero area, there also exists, for massive particles, the largest possible observable speed, which is a bit less than the speed of light.
