Quantum Gravity: Has Spacetime Quantum Properties? [PDF]
, 2009 The conceptual incompatibility between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics is generally seen as a sufficient motivation for the development of a theory of Quantum Gravity. If - so a typical argumentation - Quantum Mechanics gives a universally valid

Pressure Force in the Upper Ankle Joint
Applied SciencesBackground: This paper concerns the study of forces acting on the upper ankle joint of a human in static and quasi-dynamic positions. This paper aimed to determine the pressure forces on the axis of the upper ankle joint in the position of the body ...

The Global Economy’s Shifting Centre of Gravity
, 2011 This article describes the dynamics of the global economy’s centre of gravity, the average location of economic activity across geographies on Earth. The calculations here take into account all the GDP produced on this planet.

Preference Erosion: The case of Bangladesh - A SUR-EC-AR Gravity Model of Trade [PDF]
This paper analyses the impact of preference erosion on Bangladesh’s clothing industry coming from both the ATC quotas phasing-out and the reduction on MFN tariffs under NAMA negotiations. First, it undertakes a numerical exercise to estimate the effects

Quantum Gravity: A Primer for Philosophers. [PDF]
, 2008 ‘Quantum Gravity’ does not denote any existing theory: the field of quantum gravity is very much a ‘work in progress’. As you will see in this chapter, there are multiple lines of attack each with the same core goal: to find a theory that unifies, in ...

Spherical branes and the BMN matrix quantum mechanics
Journal of High Energy PhysicsWe study the maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on S d using supersymmetric localisation and holography. We argue that the analytic continuation in dimension to d = 1 yields a Euclidean version of the BMN matrix quantum mechanics. This system can

International Trade without CES: Estimating Translog Gravity [PDF]
This paper derives a micro-founded gravity equation in general equilibrium based on a translog demand system that allows for endogenous markups and substitution patterns across goods.

Non-perturbative 3d Lorentzian quantum gravity [PDF]
, 2001 We have recently introduced a discrete model of Lorentzian quantum gravity, given as a regularized non-perturbative state sum over simplicial Lorentzian spacetimes, each possessing a uniqueWick rotation to Euclidean signature.
