General relativity successfully describes space-times at scales that we can observe and probe today, but it cannot be complete as a consequence of singularity theorems. For a long time there have been indications that quantum gravity will…
The effective field theory of quantum gravity generically predicts non-locality to be present in the effective action, which results from the low-energy propagation of gravitons and massless matter. Working to second order in gravitational…
Long-range effective methods are ubiquitous in physics and in quantum theory, in particular. Furthermore, the reliability of such methods is higher when the nature of short-ranged interactions need not be modeled explicitly. This may be…
