Exact uncertainty principle and quantization: implications for the gravitational field
The quantization of the gravitational field is discussed within the exact uncertainty approach. The method may be described as a Hamilton-Jacobi quantization of gravity. It differs from previous approaches that take the classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation

Proper time approach to the quantization of the gravitational field
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.

We show that the strongly coupled field theory holographically dual to the Gubser-Rocha anti-de-Sitter Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory describes not a single non-trivial AdS2 IR fixed point, but a one-parameter family.

Gravitational Dynamics—A Novel Shift in the Hamiltonian Paradigm
It is well known that Einstein’s equations assume a simple polynomial form in the Hamiltonian framework based on a Yang-Mills phase space. We re-examine the gravitational dynamics in this framework and show that time evolution of the gravitational field ...

Study of the Inflationary Spectrum in the Presence of Quantum Gravity Corrections
After a brief review of the different approaches to predicting the possible quantum gravity corrections to quantum field theory, we discuss in some detail the formulation based on a Gaussian reference frame fixing.

Quantization of the Gravitational Field in the Expanding Universe [PDF]
An attempt is made to quantize, in the linear approximation, the gravitational field in the expanding universe, from the standpoint of canonical formalism. By using a transformation function and decomposing suitably the field operator into positive and negative frequency parts, explicit forms of the four- dimensional commutation function and the ...

Fundamental length scale and the bending of light in a gravitational field
The canonical approach to quantizing quantum gravity is understood to suffer from pathological non-renomalizability. Nevertheless in the context of effective field theory, a viable perturbative approach to calculating elementary processes is possible ...

Lie algebroids and the geometry of off-shell BRST
It is well-known that principal bundles and associated bundles underlie the geometric structure of classical gauge field theories. In this paper, we explore the reformulation of gauge theories in terms of Lie algebroids and their associated bundles. This

Gravitational path integral from the T 2 deformation
We study a T 2 deformation of large N conformal field theories, a higher dimensional generalization of the T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ deformation. The deformed partition function satisfies a flow equation of the diffusion type.

Quantization of Scalar Fields in Curved Background and Quantum Algebras [PDF]
We show that a suitable deformation of the algebra $h_k(1)$ of the creation and annihilation operators for a complex scalar field, initially quantized in Minkowski space--time, induces the canonical quantization of the same field in a generic ...
