Sakharov's induced gravity: a modern perspective

TL;DR: Sakharov's 1967 notion of ''induced gravity'' is currently enjoying a significant resurgence as discussed by the authors, and it was argued that gravity (general relativity) emerges from quantum field theory in roughly the same sense that hydrodynamics or continuum elasticity theory emerges from molecular physics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum Blockchain Using Entanglement in Time

Del Rajan, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual design for a quantum blockchain is proposed, which involves encoding the blockchain into a temporal GHZ (Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger) state of photons that do not simultaneously coexist.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trans-Planckian physics and signature change events in Bose gas hydrodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, an example of emergent spacetime as the hydrodynamic limit of a more fundamental microscopic theory is presented, where the low energy, longwavelength limit is dominated by collective variables that generate an effective Lorentzian metric.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analytic results for the effective action

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained explicit closed form expressions for the one-loop effective action in a constant electromagnetic field and discussed both massive and massless charged scalars and spinors in two, three, and four dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Massive Klein-Gordon equation from a Bose-Einstein-condensation-based analogue spacetime

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a two-component BEC subject to laser-induced transitions between the components and study the conditions required to make these two phonon modes decouple.
