Testing different approaches to quantum gravity with cosmology: An overview
arXiv:1705.01597 · doi:10.1016/j.crhy.2017.05.001
Abstract
Among the available quantum gravity proposals, string theory, loop quantum gravity, non-commutative geometry, group field theory, causal sets, asymptotic safety, causal dynamical triangulation, emergent gravity are among the best motivated models. As an introductory summary to this special issue of Comptes Rendus Physique, I explain how those different theories can be tested or constrained by cosmological observations.
