It is well-known since the works of Utiyama and Kibble that the gravitational force can be obtained by gauging the Poincar\'e group, which puts gravity on the same footing as the Standard Model fields. The resulting theory --…

The quantum theory of gravity is considered based on the assumption that gravitational interaction occurs by means of the vector field of the Planck mass. Gravitational emission is considered as a process of the decay of proton into some…

Quantum gravity remains an elusive theory, in spite of our thorough understanding of the quantum theory and the general theory of relativity separately, presumably due to the lack of any observational clues. We argue that the theory of…
