Commutatively deformed general relativity: foundations, cosmology, and experimental tests
An integral kernel representation for the commutative $$\star $$ ⋆ -product on curved classical spacetime is introduced. Its convergence conditions and relationship to a Drin’feld differential twist are established.

Thermodynamics of an Empty Box
A gas in a box is perhaps the most important model system studied in thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. Usually, studies focus on the gas, whereas the box merely serves as an idealized confinement.

Scattering of fermions in the Yukawa theory coupled to unimodular gravity
We compute the lowest order gravitational UV divergent radiative corrections to the S matrix element of the $$fermion + fermion\rightarrow fermion + fermion$$ fermion+fermion→fermion+fermion scattering process in the massive Yukawa theory, coupled either

The constraints of post-quantum classical gravity
We study a class of theories in which space-time is treated classically, while interacting with quantum fields. These circumvent various no-go theorems and the pathologies of semi-classical gravity, by being linear in the density matrix and phase-space ...

On local invertibility of functions of an h-complex variable
The theory of functions of an h-complex variable is an alternative to the usual theory of functions of a complex variable, obtained by replacing the rules of multiplication.

On Equivalence of Definition of the Energy-Momentum Tensor in General Relativity and Field Theory [PDF]
This work investigates a fundamental pedagogical question concerning the definition of the energy-momentum tensor in theoretical physics. Students learn the definition of energy-momentum tensor in the field theory and on the other hand a different ...

The Principle of Covariance and the Hamiltonian Formulation of General Relativity
The implications of the general covariance principle for the establishment of a Hamiltonian variational formulation of classical General Relativity are addressed.

Universal quantum modifications to general relativistic time dilation in delocalised clocks [PDF]
The theory of relativity associates a proper time with each moving object via its world line. In quantum theory however, such well-defined trajectories are forbidden. After introducing a general characterisation of quantum clocks, we demonstrate that, in

Composite higher derivative theory of gravity
We investigate a higher derivative theory that belongs to the class of composite field theories. Starting from the Yang-Mills theory based on the Lorentz group, we express the gauge vector fields in terms of the tetrad decomposition of a space-time ...
