←  Relational Quantum Gravity  ↑  →

The construction of qed as a model of particle interactions using finite dimensional Hilbert space is straightforward, but sweeps thorny issues under the carpet. The problems are deep enough that most physicists believe that this approach is fundamentally flawed. I move on from the description of standard theory from a relational viewpoint, and describe my own research into a resolution. Quantum Covariance deals with the issue that manifest covariance requires a continuum model. The Teleconnection shows how quantum theory can be consistently defined when classical spacetime is curved. I conclude that quantum field theory should be interpreted strictly as a theory of discrete particles. A consequence is that the arguments which led to Minkowski metric in special relativity must be adapted and lead to Einstein’s Field Equation in the case for a single gravitating particle.
