Summing over spacetime dimensions in quantum gravity

Erik Curiel, Felix Finster, J. M. Isidro

Quantum-gravity corrections (in the form of a minimal length) to the Feynman propagator for a free scalar particle in are shown to be the result of summing over all…

Two-Dimensional Area and Matter Flux in the Theory of Causal Fermion Systems

Erik Curiel, Felix Finster, J. M. Isidro

The notions of two-dimensional area, Killing fields and matter flux are introduced in the setting of causal fermion systems. It is shown that for critical points of the causal acti…

Schematizing the Observer and the Epistemic Content of Theories

Erik Curiel

I argue that, contrary to the standard view, one cannot understand the structure and nature of our knowledge in physics without an analysis of the way that observers (and, more gen…

Singularities in Reissner-Nordström black holes

Paul M. Chesler, Ramesh Narayan, Erik Curiel

We study black holes produced by the collapse of a spherically symmetric charged scalar field in asymptotically flat space. We employ a late time expansion and show decaying fluxes…

On Geometric Objects, the Non-Existence of a Gravitational Stress-Energy Tensor, and the Uniqueness of the Einstein Field Equation

Erik Curiel

The question of the existence of gravitational stress-energy in general relativity has exercised investigators in the field since the inception of the theory. Folklore has it that…

Numerical evolution of shocks in the interior of Kerr black holes

Paul M. Chesler, Erik Curiel, Ramesh Narayan

We numerically solve Einstein's equations coupled to a scalar field in the interior of Kerr black holes. We find shock waves form near the inner horizon. The shocks grow exponentia…
