";s:4:"text";s:2754:" Other approaches (Quantization of topology, … Approaches to quantum gravity Again as a part of a lecture series in preparation, I compiled a list of the currently largest existing research programmes aimed at finding a quantum theory of gravity (while unfortunately omitting some smaller , yet very interesting, approaches). This book provides a complete overview of this field from the frontiers of theoretical physics research for graduate students and researchers. String theory! The construction of a consistent theory of quantum gravity is a problem in theoretical physics that has so far defied all attempts at resolution. im Fach Physik eingereicht an der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakulta¨t I Humboldt-Universit¨at zu Berlin von Frau Master-Phys. Each part ends in questions and answers, in which the contributors explore the merits and problems of the various approaches. Rosenfeld published two pioneering papers in 1929 and 1930, but the problem of quantizing … One ansatz to try to obtain a non-trivial quantum theory proceeds via a discretization of space-time and the Einstein action. Canonical approaches (geometrodynamics, connection dynamics, loop dynamics, ...)! It introduces the most current approaches to this problem, and reviews their main achievements. the problem of time or the interpretation of the wave function of the universe.
