    Quantum Potential and Quantum Gravity

    Get PDF
    The quantum potential approach makes it possible to construct a complementary picture of quantum mechanical evolution which reminds classical equation of motion. The only difference as compared to equations of motion for the underlying classical system is the presence of an additional potential term being a functional of the real part of the wavefunction. In the present paper this approach is applied to the quantum theory of gravity based on Wheeler -- De Witt equation. We describe the derivation of the `quantum Einstein equation' and discuss the new features of their solutions.Comment: 12 pages LaTeX, to appear in From Field Theory to Quantum Groups.

    Topological Black Holes in Quantum Gravity

    Get PDF
    We derive the black hole solutions with horizons of non-trivial topology and investigate their properties in the framework of an approach to quantum gravity being an extension of Bohm's formulation of quantum mechanics. The solutions we found tend asymptotically (for large rr) to topological black holes. We also analyze the thermodynamics of these space-times.Comment: 4pages, no figures, plain LaTe

    Scalar field theory on κ\kappa-Minkowski space-time and Doubly Special Relativity

    Full text link
    In this paper we recall the construction of scalar field action on κ\kappa-Minkowski space-time and investigate its properties. In particular we show how the co-product of κ\kappa-Poincar\'e algebra of symmetries arises from the analysis of the symmetries of the action, expressed in terms of Fourier transformed fields. We also derive the action on commuting space-time, equivalent to the original one. Adding the self-interaction Φ4\Phi^4 term we investigate the modified conservation laws. We show that the local interactions on κ\kappa-Minkowski space-time give rise to 6 inequivalent ways in which energy and momentum can be conserved at four-point vertex. We discuss the relevance of these results for Doubly Special Relativity.Comment: 17 pages; some editing done, final version to be published in Int. J. Mod. Phys.

    Black Hole Solution of Quantum Gravity

    Get PDF
    We present a spherically symmetric and static exact solution of Quantum Einstein Equations. This solution is asymptotically (for large rr) identical with the black hole solution on the anti--De Sitter background and, for some range of values of the mass possesses two horizons. We investigate thermodynamical properties of this solution.Comment: Plain Latex, 10 page
