The Logic of Quantum Mechanics Derived from Classical General Relativity [PDF]
, 1997 For the first time it is shown that the logic of quantum mechanics can be derived from Classical Physics. An orthomodular lattice of propositions, characteristic of quantum logic, is constructed for manifolds in Einstein's theory of general relativity. A

Quantum Gravity: Motivations and Alternatives [PDF]
, 2009 The mutual conceptual incompatibility between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics / Quantum Field Theory is generally seen as the most essential motivation for the development of a theory of Quantum Gravity.

Quantum vacuum energy in general relativity
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2018 The paper deals with the scale discrepancy between the observed vacuum energy in cosmology and the theoretical quantum vacuum energy (cosmological constant problem).

SPACETIME OR QUANTUM PARTICLES: THE ONTOLOGY OF QUANTUM GRAVITY? [PDF]
, 1996 The domains of quantum theory and general relativity overlap in situations where quantum mechanical effects cannot be ignored. In order to deal with this overlap of theoretical domains, there has been a tendency to apply the rules of quantum field theory

Does Quantum Mechanics Clash with the Equivalence Principle – and Does it Matter? [PDF]
, 2010 With an eye on developing a quantum theory of gravity, many physicists have recently searched for quantum challenges to the equivalence principle of general relativity.

Formal statement of the special principle of relativity [PDF]
, 2013 While there is a longstanding discussion about the interpretation of the extended, general principle of relativity, there seems to be a consensus that the special principle of relativity is absolutely clear and unproblematic.

Spacetime and the Philosophical Challenge of Quantum Gravity [PDF]
, 2001 We survey some philosophical aspects of the search for a quantum theory of gravity, emphasising how quantum gravity throws into doubt the treatment of spacetime common to the two `ingredient theories' (quantum theory and general relativity), as a 4 ...

A conceptual analysis of Julian Barbour's time [PDF]
, 2011 One of Julian Barbourâ s main aims is to solve the problem of time that appears in quantum geometrodynamics (QG). QG involves the application of canonical quantization procedure to the Hamiltonian formulation of General Relativity.
