Dynamical phase transitions induced by local projective measurements have attracted a lot of attention in the past few years. It has been in particular argued that measurements may induce an abrupt change in the scaling law of the bipartite…

Postulates which lead to Minkowski spacetime are amended in a subtle way, and used to construct a consistent flat spacetime geometry with intrinsic quantum character. Events in the new quantum geometry are described by labels of the form…

Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT) is a methodology to define and compute the gravitational path integral, whose aim is a fully fledged nonperturbative quantum field theory of gravity and spacetime. Analogous to lattice formulations of…

If gravity is fundamentally quantum, any two quantum particles must get entangled with each other due to their mutual interaction through gravity. This phenomenon, dubbed gravity-mediated entanglement, has led to recent efforts of detecting…

An intrinsic local time in Geometrodynamics is obtained with using a scaled Dirac's mapping. By addition of a background metric, one can construct a scalar field. It is suitable to play a role of intrinsic time. Cauchy problem was…
