Detecting deformed commutators with exceptional points in optomechanical sensors
Models of quantum gravity imply a modification of the canonical position-momentum commutation relations. In this paper, working with a binary mechanical system, we examine the effect of quantum gravity on the exceptional points of the system.

A new class of modified gravity theories, made possible by subtle features of the canonical formulation of general covariance, naturally allows MOND-like behavior (MOdified Newtonian Dynamics) in effective space-time solutions without introducing new ...

Spacetime and the Philosophical Challenge of Quantum Gravity [PDF]
We survey some philosophical aspects of the search for a quantum theory of gravity, emphasising how quantum gravity throws into doubt the treatment of spacetime common to the two `ingredient theories' (quantum theory and general relativity), as a 4 ...

SPACETIME OR QUANTUM PARTICLES: THE ONTOLOGY OF QUANTUM GRAVITY? [PDF]
The domains of quantum theory and general relativity overlap in situations where quantum mechanical effects cannot be ignored. In order to deal with this overlap of theoretical domains, there has been a tendency to apply the rules of quantum field theory

Quantum Cauchy surfaces in canonical quantum gravity [PDF]
For a Dirac theory of quantum gravity obtained from the refined algebraic quantization procedure, we propose a quantum notion of Cauchy surfaces. In such a theory, there is a kernel projector for the quantized scalar and momentum constraints, which maps the kinematic Hilbert space $\mathbb K$ into the physical Hilbert space $\mathbb H$.

Quantum Gravity: Motivations and Alternatives [PDF]
The mutual conceptual incompatibility between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics / Quantum Field Theory is generally seen as the most essential motivation for the development of a theory of Quantum Gravity.

A proposal for a Bohmian ontology of quantum gravity [PDF]
The paper shows how the Bohmian approach to quantum physics can be applied to develop a clear and coherent ontology of non-perturbative quantum gravity.
