Running of Newton's Constant and Quantum Gravitational Effects
David Reeb
Newton's gravitational constant is shown to be a running coupling constant, much like the familiar running gauge couplings of the Standard Model. This implies that, in models with…
On the sign problem in dense QCD
Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb
We investigate the Euclidean path integral formulation of QCD at finite baryon density and temperature. We show that the partition function Z can be written as a difference between…
Unitarity and the Hilbert space of quantum gravity
Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb
Under the premises that physics is unitary and black hole evaporation is complete (no remnants, no topology change), there must exist a one-to-one correspondence between states on…
Quantum gravity at a TeV and the renormalization of Newton's constant
Xavier Calmet, Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb
We examine whether renormalization effects can cause Newton's constant to change dramatically with energy, perhaps even reducing the scale of quantum gravity to the TeV region with…
What is the entropy of the universe?
Paul Frampton, Stephen D. H. Hsu, Thomas W. Kephart +1
Standard calculations suggest that the entropy of our universe is dominated by black holes, whose entropy is of order their area in Planck units, although they comprise only a tiny…
Black hole entropy, curved space and monsters
Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb
We investigate the microscopic origin of black hole entropy, in particular the gap between the maximum entropy of ordinary matter and that of black holes. Using curved space, we co…
