Statistical Gravity through Affine Quantization
arXiv:2411.17131 · doi:10.3390/quantum6040042
Abstract
I propose a possible way to introduce the effect of temperature (defined through the virial theorem) into Einstein's theory of general relativity. This requires the computation of a path integral on a 10-dimensional flat space in a four dimensional spacetime lattice. Standard path integral Monte Carlo methods can be used to compute it.
