Abstract

The Schwarzschild approach is applied to solve the field equations describing a Nexus graviton field. The resulting solutions are free from singularities which have been a problem in general relativity since its inception. Findings from this work also demonstrate that at the Hubble radius, the metric signature of space-time changes generating short-lived but intense bursts of energy during the transition process. The solutions in this paper also provide an explanation to the enigma of late time cosmic acceleration, the galaxy rotation curve problem and the coincidence problem.

A quantum picture of General Relativity

What is it about?

A quantum version of General Relativity that explains Dark Energy and Dark Matter as manifestations of quantum gravity. It solves the the galaxy rotation curve problem, the coincidence problem and cosmic acceleration.

Why is it important?

A semi classical version of General Relativity is presented whose importance lies in that it will one day lead to the formulation of General relativity in a Schrodinger like wave equation as in quantum mechanics. It also gives an explanation of Dark Energy and Dark Matter.
