Quantum Fluctuations Of Spacetime Vol I

Encyclopaedia of Advanced Electromagnetism and Vacuum Physics covers all the important concepts of quantum fluctuations of spacetime. Quantum Fluctuations of Spacetime emphasizes the intimations for the disappearance of continuum space and time at microscopic scale. These include arguments for a discrete nature of them or for a fundamental non-locality, in a quantum theory of gravity.

We discuss how these ideas are realized in specific quantum gravity approaches. Quantum gravity is not the quantization of general relativity, but is instead the embedding of quantum theory and gravitation into a more fundamental field theoretic framework. This volume is comprised of seven chapters.

1. Disappearance and Emergence of Space and Time in Quantum Gravity

2. An Information-Theoretic Link Between Spacetime Symmetries and Quantum Linearity

3. A Dilemma for the Emergence of Spacetime in Canonical Quantum Gravity

4. Dynamics and Quantum Entanglement of Two-Level Atomsin De Sitter Spacetime

5. Quantum Fields in Curved Spacetime

6. Superstrings, Cantorian-Fractal Spacetime and Quantum-Like Chaos in Atmospheric Flows

7. On the Existence of Complex Spacetime in Relativistic Quantum Mechanics
