We have recently presented a unified quantum gravity theory [1]. Here we extend on that work and present an even simpler version of that theory. For about hundred years, modern physics has not been able to build a bridge between quantum mechanics and gravity. However, a solution may be found here; we present our quantum gravity theory, which is rooted in indivisible particles where matter and gravity are related to collisions and can be described by collision space-time. In this paper, we also show that we can formulate a quantum wave equation rooted in collision space-time, which is equivalent to mass and energy.The beauty of our theory is that most of the main equations that currently exist in physics are not changed (in terms of predictions), except at the Planck scale. The Planck scale is directly linked to gravity and gravity is, surprisingly, actually a Lorentz symmetry as well as a form of Heisenberg uncertainty break down at the Planck scale. Our theory gives a dramatic simplification of many physics formulas without altering the output predictions. The relativistic wave equation, the relativistic energy momentum relation, and Minkowski space can all be represented by simpler equations when we understand mass at a deeper level. This not attained at a cost, but rather a reflection of the benefit in having gravity and electromagnetism unified under the same theory.

New Formulation

For about hundred years, modern physics has not been able to build a bridge between quantum mechanics (QM) and gravity. However, a solution may be found here. We present our quantum gravity theory, which is rooted in indivisible particles where matter and gravity are related to collisions and can be described by collision-space-time. In this paper, we also show that we can formulate a quantum wave equation rooted in collision-space-time, which is equivalent to mass and energy. The beauty of our theory is that most of the main equations that currently exist in physics are, in general, not changed in terms of predictions and what we could call structural form, except at the Planck scale. The Planck scale is directly linked to gravity, which has obviously already been detected, and gravity is actually a Lorentz symmetry as well as a form of Heisenberg uncertainty break down at the Planck scale. Our theory gives a dramatic simplification of many physics formulas without altering the output predictions, except at the Planck scale, and this new formulation gives us a unified theory. The relativistic wave equation, the relativistic energy momentum relation, and Minkowski space can all be represented by simpler equations when we understand mass at a deeper level. This is not attained at a cost, but rather a reflection of the benefit in having gravity and QM unified under the same theory.

Working in the context of the Planck scale cosmology formulation of Bonanno and Reuter, we use our resummed quantum gravity approach to Einstein’s general theory of relativity to estimate the value of the cosmological constant as [Formula: see text]. We show that SUSY GUT models are constrained by the closeness of this estimate to experiment. We also address various consistency checks on the calculation. In particular, we use the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to remove a large part of the remaining uncertainty in our estimate of [Formula: see text].

Quantum Spacetime

Over the last few years the study of possible Planck-scale departures from classical Lorentz symmetry has been one of the most active areas of quantum-gravity research. We now have a satisfactory description of the fate of Lorentz symmetry in the most popular noncommutative spacetimes and several studies have been devoted to the fate of Lorentz symmetry in loop quantum gravity. Remarkably there are planned experiments with enough sensitivity to reveal these quantum-spacetime effects, if their magnitude is only linearly suppressed by the Planck length. Unfortunately, in some quantum-gravity scenarios even the strongest quantum-spacetime effects are suppressed by at least two powers of the Planck length, and many authors have argued that it would be impossible to test these quadratically-suppressed effects. I here observe that advanced cosmic-ray observatories and neutrino observatories can provide the first elements of an experimental programme testing the possibility of departures from Lorentz symmetry that are quadratically Planck-length suppressed.

Energy And Momentum

In this paper, the energy and momentum operator substitution method derived from the Schrödinger equation is used to list all possible light and matter wave equations, among which the first light wave equation and relativistic approximation equation are proposed for the first time. We expect that we will have some practical application value. The negative sign pairing of energy and momentum operators are important characteristics of this paper. Then the Klein–Gordon equation and Dirac equation are introduced. The process of deriving relativistic energy–momentum relationship by undetermined coefficient method and establishing Dirac equation are mainly introduced. Dirac’s idea of treating negative energy in relativity into positrons is also discussed. Finally, the four-dimensional space-time representation of relativistic wave equation is introduced, which is usually the main representation of quantum electrodynamics and quantum field theory.

We argue that our recent success in using our resummed quantum gravity (RQG) approach to Einstein’s general theory of relativity, in the context of the Planck scale cosmology formulation of Bonanno and Reuter, to estimate the value of the cosmological constant [Formula: see text] supports the use of quantum mechanical consistency requirements to constrain the main uncertainty in that very promising result. This main uncertainty, which is due to the uncertainty in the value of the time [Formula: see text] at which the transition from the Planck scale cosmology to the FRW model occurs, is shown to be reduced, by requiring consistency between the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and the known properties of the solutions of Einstein’s equations, from four orders of magnitude to the level of a factor of [Formula: see text]. This lends more credibility to the overall RQG approach itself, in general, and to our estimate of [Formula: see text] in particular.

Background Independence

Recent work has revealed intriguing connections between a Belinsky–Khalatnikov–Lifshitz-type analysis of spacelike singularities in general relativity and certain infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, particularly the "maximally extended" hyperbolic Kac–Moody algebra E10. In this essay we argue that these results may lead to an entirely new understanding of the (quantum) nature of space(–time) at the Planck scale, and hence — via an effective "de-emergence" of space near the singularity — to a novel mechanism for achieving background independence in quantum gravity.

We apply our model of quantum gravity to a Kerr-AdS space-time of dimension2m+1,m≥2, where all rotational parameters are equal, resulting in a wave equation in a quantum space-time which has a sequence of solutions that can be expressed as a product of stationary and temporal eigenfunctions. The stationary eigenfunctions can be interpreted as radiation and the temporal ones as gravitational waves. The event horizon corresponds in the quantum model to a Cauchy hypersurface that can be crossed by causal curves in both directions such that the information paradox does not occur. We also prove that the Kerr-AdS space-time can be maximally extended by replacing in a generalized Boyer-Lindquist coordinate system thervariable byρ=r2such that the extended space-time has a timelike curvature singularity inρ=-a2.

In this work it is acknowledged that important attempts to devise an emergent quantum (gravity) theory require space-time to be discretized at the Planck scale. It is therefore conjectured that reality is identical to a sub-quantum dynamics of ontological micro-constituents that are connected by a single interaction law. To arrive at a complex system-based toy-model identification of these micro-constituents, two strategies are combined. First, by seeing gravity as an entropic phenomenon and generalizing the dimensional reduction of the associated holographic principle, the universal constants of free space are related to assumed attributes of the micro-constituents. Second, as the effective field dynamics of the micro-constituents must eventually obey Einstein’s field equations, a sub-quantum interaction law is derived from a solution of these equations. A Planck-scale origin for thermodynamic black hole characteristics and novel views on entropic gravity theory result from this approach, which eventually provides a different view on quantum gravity and its unification with the fundamental forces.

Because Newton's gravity and Einstein's general theory of relativity are macroscopic gravitational theories, therefore, this paper attempts to establish a set of quantum gravity theory of the microscopic expression of Newton's and Einstein's theory of gravity to make up for the shortcomings of the existing macro-gravity theory at the micro level, and further develop the macroscopic gravity theory into the microscopic field. Based on the cognition of the field theory model, from the general assumption, space-time is further regarded as an ideal fluid, from the perspective of the distribution of ideal fluid density, this paper derives the Newton's universal gravitational equation and Einstein's general relativity equation. On the micro level, the gravitational field is further interpreted as a gradient field of space-time density; the Newtonian potential is further interpreted as the density of an object at the micro level; gravity is further interpreted as the potential pressure(space-time pressure) exhibited by the gradient of the density of the object at the micro level; flection space-time is further interpreted as the embodiment of the gradient distribution of the ideal fluid (space-time) density at the micro level. Therefore, this paper establishes a new set of quantum gravity theory, which can solve some pain points in the theory of macroscopic gravity. At the same time, based on the new interpretation of Newton's mechanics concept foundation based on field theory, this paper also proposes a new paradigm theory independent of Newtonian mechanics and analytical mechanics, which can solve some pain points in Newtonian mechanics and analytical mechanics.
