$\mathbf{SU}(\infty )$-QGR Quantumania: Everything, Everywhere, All At Once

Abstract

$SU(\infty )$-QGR is a quantum approach to Universe and gravity. Its main assumption is infinite mutually commuting observables in the Universe, leading to representation of $SU(\infty )$ by its Hilbert spaces and those of its subsystems. The Universe as a whole is static, topological, and characterized by two continuous parameters. Nonetheless, quantum fluctuations induce clustering and finite rank internal symmetries, which approximately divide the Universe to infinite interacting subsystems. Their Hilbert space depends on an additional dimensionful parameter, and selection of a subsystem as clock induces a relative dynamics, with $SU(\infty )$ sector as gravity. The Lagrangian defined on the (3+1)-dimensional parameter space is Yang-Mills for both symmetries. When quantumness of gravity is undetectable, it is perceived as curvature of an effective spacetime.
