We develop a self-consistent Spin (4, 4)-invariant model of the unification of gravity with weak SU(2) gauge and Higgs fields in the visible and invisible sectors of our universe. We consider a general case of the graviweak unification, including the higher-derivative super-renormalizable theory of gravity, which is a unitary, asymptotically-free and perturbatively consistent theory of the quantum gravity.

We analyze the R + R2 model of quantum gravity where terms quadratic in the curvature tensor are added to the General Relativity action. This model was recently proved to be a self-consistent quantum theory of gravitation, being both renormalizable and unitary. The model can be made practically indistinguishable from General Relativity at astrophysical and cosmological scales by the proper choice of parameters.

For the first time, the article presents the Quantum Theory of Gravity, covering not only the microcosm of elementary particles, but also the macrocosm of planets, stars and black holes. This relational approach to gravity was consistently presented in Arthur Eddington's monograph “Fundamental Theory”. In the theory of quantum gravity proposes to consider instead of gravity holes in the curved space-time of Einstein's general relativity, gravitational funnels formed by the rotation of planets, stars and galaxies in a dark matter halo. The change in the gravitational potential in the funnels occurs instantly in all areas of the gravitational funnel space in accordance with the pressure gradient described by the Euler-Bernoulli equation for superfluid continuous media. The new cosmological theory represents the evolution of the universe and dark holes without a singularity. The disordered alternation of the processes of contraction and expansion of individual regions of the infinite Universe realizes the circulation of baryonic and dark matter, which allows it to exist indefinitely, bypassing the state of equilibrium. Numerical modeling allows us to assert that the theory of quantum gravity is the most reliable of the three generally accepted theories of gravity.

We propose a new solution to problems of the hierarchy and smallness of the cosmological constant using the TeV scale of the Standard Model in a new framework of the higher-order gravity.

The weak gravity conjecture suggests that, in a self-consistent theory of quantum gravity, the strength of gravity is bounded from above by the strengths of the various gauge forces in the theory. In particular, this intriguing conjecture asserts that in a theory describing a [Formula: see text] gauge field coupled consistently to gravity, there must exist a particle whose proper mass is bounded (in Planck units) by its charge: [Formula: see text]. This beautiful and remarkably compact conjecture has attracted the attention of physicists and mathematicians over the last decade. It should be emphasized, however, that despite the fact that there are numerous examples from field theory and string theory that support the conjecture, we still lack a general proof of its validity. In the present paper, we prove that the weak gravity conjecture (and, in particular, the mass–charge upper bound [Formula: see text]) can be inferred directly from Bekenstein’s generalized second law of thermodynamics, a law which is widely believed to reflect a fundamental aspect of the elusive theory of quantum gravity.

Put simply, Lisa Randall’s job is to figure out how the universe works, and what it’s made of. Her contributions to theoretical particle physics include two models of space-time that bear her name. The first Randall–Sundrum model addressed a problem with the Standard Model of the universe, and the second concerned the possibility of a warped additional dimension of space. In this work, we caught up with Randall to talk about why she chose a career in physics, where she finds inspiration, and what advice she’d offer budding physicists. This article has been edited for clarity. My favourite quote in this interview is, “Figure out what you enjoy, what your talents are, and what you’re most curious to learn about.” If you insterest in her work, you can contact her on Twitter @lirarandall.
