Stochastic quantization of the linearized gravitational field [PDF]

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 1982
Stochastic field equations for linearized gravity are presented. The theory is compared with the usual quantum field theory and questions of Lorentz covariance are discussed. The classical radiation approximation is also presented.

The necessity of quantizing the gravitational field

Foundations of Physics, 1977
The assumption that a classical gravitational field interacts with a quantum system is shown to lead to violations of either momentum conservation or the uncertainty principle, or to result in transmission of signals faster thanc. A similar argument holds for the electromagnetic field.

Proper time approach to the quantization of the gravitational field

Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics, 1980
Abstract An approach to the quantization of the gravitational field and other generally covariant systems is described. The main result is a formal expression for the Feynman propagator of the field as a whole, which replaces the usual expression for the evolution operator in ordinary field theory.

Quantized Gravitational Field

Physical Review, 1963
A gravitational action operator is constructed that is invariant under general coordinate transformations and local Lorentz (gauge) transformations. To interpret the formalism the arbitrariness in description must be restricted by introducing gauge conditions and coordinate conditions.

Covariant quantization of the gravitational field

Uspekhi Fizicheskih Nauk, 1973
A review dedicated to the contemporary methods of quantization of the gravitational field. In view of possible applications to elementary particle theory, the authors consider only asymptotically flat gravitational fields. The basis of the exposed method of quantization is the method of quantization of gauge fields in the functional integration ...

Quantized Meson Field in a Classical Gravitational Field

Physical Review, 1960
The behavior of a quantized meson field in a classical gravitational field is examined. Physical quantities such as the expectation value for the number of created mesons are represented in terms of a formal Green-s function. They are computed explicitly for the case of a special spaceindependent gravitational field.

On the quantization of the linearized gravitational field

Classical and Quantum Gravity, 1999
Summary: We present a new point of view on the quantization of the gravitational field, namely we use exclusively the quantum framework of the second quantization. More explicitly, we take as one-particle Hilbert space, \(H_{\text{graviton}}\) the unitary irreducible representation of the Poincaré group corresponding to a massless particle of helicity ...
