Various approaches by the author and collaborators to define gravitational fluctuations associated with a noncommutative space are reviewed.
Errors in Eberly's derivation of several Bell inequalities are pointed out: (1) it is based on an equation that is incorrect; (2) it uses neither two-particle states nor locality to derive Bell's inequalities and; (3) it does not use…
We propose a Lorentz-covariant theory of gravity, and explain its theoretical origins in the problem of time in Newtonian physics. In this retarded gravitation theory (RGT), the gravitational force depends upon both retarded position and…
In a recent paper (arXiv:2110.06213v1) it was argued that in 4D supergravity a previously unknown candidate anomaly exists. In the present paper it is pointed out that the existence of such a candidate would contradict results available in…
With a view to the results discussed in the first two parts of this paper, the concept of time is revisited oncemore and chosen as an example in order to demonstrate the meaning of fundamental in both physical and philosophical terms. It is…
An axiomatization of the so-called Teleparallel Equivalent to General Relativity is presented. A set of formal and semantic postulates are elaborated from where the physical meaning of various key concepts of the theory are clarified. These…
In this brief reply we point out to some misconceptions in C.Camacho's comment (cond-mat/9701210).
We show that the recently proposed weak gravity conjecture\cite{AMNV0601} can be extended to a class of scalar field theories. Taking gravity into account, we find an upper bound on the gravity interaction strength, expressed in terms of…
Quantizing the gravitational field described by General relativity being a notorious difficult, unsolved and maybe meaningless problem I use in this essay a different strategy: I consider a linear theory in the framework of Special…
There is no doubt that both the special and general theories of relativity capture the imagination. The anti-intuitive properties of the special theory of relativity and its deep philosophical implications, the bizzare and dazzling…
We introduce the key ideas behind the group field theory approach to quantum gravity, and the basic elements of its formalism. We also briefly report on some recent results obtained in this approach, concerning both the mathematical…
The assumptions behind the recently conjectured relation between gauge theory and supergravity are elaborated on. It is pointed out that the scaling limit that preserves supergravity solutions, gives the entire DBI action on the gauge…
This is an introduction to the group field theory approach to quantum gravity, with emphasis on motivations and basic formalism, more than on recent results; we elaborate on the various ingredients, both conceptual and formal, of the…
E. M. Chudnovsky has recently posted on the ArXive his Reply (arXiv:0805.2918) to my Comment (Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 199703 (2008)) on his recent Letter (E. M. Chudnovsky, Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 206601 (2007)). In order to avoid possible…
To deepen our understanding of Quantum Gravity and its connections with black holes and cosmology, building a common language and exchanging ideas across different approaches is crucial. The Nordita Program "Quantum Gravity: from…
We argue that several statements in Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 081301 (2020) are not correct.
This is our reply to "Comment on 'Nontrivial Quantum Geometry and the Strength of Electron-Phonon Coupling', arXiv:2305.02340, J. Yu, C. J. Ciccarino, R. Bianco, I. Errea, P. Narang, B. A. Bernevig" by Prof. Pickett, which focuses on the…
Fifteen misconceptions involving Relativity, Gravitation and Cosmology are exposed, along with corrections
This paper is a collection of lecture notes on modified gravity. Various modified gravity models formulated within the Riemannian formalism are discussed.
