Following the reasoning of Claudson and Halpern, it is shown that "fifth-time" stabilized quantum gravity is equivalent to Langevin evolution (i.e. stochastic quantization) between fixed non-singular, but otherwise arbitrary, initial and…

We formulate the quantum version of non-projectable Ho\v{r}ava gravity as a Lagrangian theory with a path integral in the configuration space with an ultra-local in time, but non-local in space, field-dependent measure. Using auxiliary…
