STRING theoryMODEL theoryGRAVITYQUANTUM groupsIn a previous article we proposed a new model for quantum gravity (QGR) and cosmology, dubbed S U (∞) -QGR. One of the axioms of this model is that Hilbert spaces of the Universe and its subsystems represent the S U (∞) sym...

We argue that String Theory and Loop Quantum Gravity canVaid, Deepak be thought of as describing different regimes of a single unified theory of quantum gravity. LQG can be thought of as providing the pre-geometric exoskeleton out of which macroscopic geometry emerges and String Theory then ...

First, I will argue that the non-fundamentality of time to be found in string theory entails standard eternalism. Second, I will argue that the non-fundamentality of time to be found in loop quantum gravity entails atemporal eternalism, namely a novel position in the spirit of standard ...
