Microcausality and Quantum Cylindrical Gravitational Waves

广义相对论与量子宇宙学 2008-11-26 v1

摘要

We study several issues related to the different choices of time available for the classical and quantum treatment of linearly polarized cylindrical gravitational waves. We pay especial attention to the time evolution of creation and annihilation operators and the definition of Fock spaces for the different choices of time involved. We discuss also the issue of microcausality and the use of field commutators to extract information about the causal properties of quantum spacetime.
