Reality is Not What It Seems

The Journey to Quantum Gravity

Carlo Rovelli 2017 . Cedar Mill 503.143


Idea is that spacetime is quantized, connection graphs between nodes at Planck scale. "Big bang" is "big bounce"

  • p059 Maxwell's equations: dF = 0, d*F = J (?? divergence and curl of "field" ?? )
  • p157 John Wheeler audio

  • p182 "time does not exist" at the Planck scale, time is relational at large scale
  • p220 Possible loop quantum gravity prediction of background radiation spectrum
