There have been various claims that the Equivalence Principle, as originally formulated by Einstein, presents several difficulties when extended to the quantum domain, even in the regime of weak gravity.

ON A QUANTUM EQUIVALENCE PRINCIPLE [PDF]
The logical consistency of a description of quantum theory in the context of general relativity, which includes minimal coupling principle, is analyzed from the point of view of Feynman's formulation in terms of path integrals. We will argue from this standpoint and use an argument that claims the incompleteness of the general relativistic description

Equivalence Principle, Higgs Boson and Cosmology
We discuss here possible tests for Palatini f(R)-theories together with their implications for different formulations of the Equivalence Principle. We shall show that Palatini f(R)-theories obey the Weak Equivalence Principle and violate the Strong ...

Neutrino decoherence and violation of the strong equivalence principle
We analyze the dynamics of neutrino Gaussian wave-packets, the damping of flavor oscillations and decoherence effects within the framework of extended theories of gravity.

Is there a quantum equivalence principle?
The understanding that has been gained of accelerated vacua sheds new light on the classic issue of the self-force suffered by a uniformly accelerated charge. Moreover, the fact that, as a result of quantum theory, the radiative decay of an excited atom can be viewed equivalently as the result of the vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field or ...

Univalent Foundations and the Equivalence Principle [PDF]
In this paper, we explore the 'equivalence principle' (EP): roughly, statements about mathematical objects should be invariant under an appropriate notion of equivalence for the kinds of objects under consideration. In set theoretic foundations, EP may not always hold: for instance, the statement '1 \in N' is not invariant under isomorphism of sets. In

TRADUIRE LES CONTRATS DU DROIT FRANÇAIS PAR ÉQUIVALENCE FONCTIONNELLE/TRANSLATING FRENCH LAW CONTRACTS THROUGH FUNCTIONAL EQUIVALENCE/TRADUCEREA CONTRACTELOR DIN DREPTUL FRANCEZ PRIN INTERMEDIUL ECHIVALENȚEI FUNCȚIONALE [PDF]
The topic of this paper is represented by the translation of French contracts through functional equivalence. In the first part of the study, we present the avatars of the concept of equivalence in Translation Studies, the notion of dynamic equivalence

Questioning the equivalence principle [PDF]
The Equivalence Principle (EP) is not one of the ``universal'' principles of physics (like the Action Principle). It is a heuristic hypothesis which was introduced by Einstein in 1907, and used by him to construct his theory of General Relativity.
