In General
> s.a. 2D gravity; 3D gravity;
general relativity action; gravity as a gauge
theory [on a fuzzy space]; non-commutative cosmology.
* Idea: A number of particle theories,
such as gauge theories or Connes' description of the standard model of elementary particles,
use non-commutative spacetimes as models for quantum spacetime (with or without breaking
of Lorentz symmetry), and approaches to quantum gravity such as loop gravity and string
theory, also lead to effective non-commutative descriptions of spacetime.
* Motivation: This may provide
a framework in which one can "smoothly" interpolate between spatial
topologies; UV-divergences in quantum field theory.
* Einstein equation: The effects
of non-commutativity can be taken into account by keeping the standard form of
the Einstein tensor on the left-hand side of the equation and introducing a
modified energy-momentum tensor as a source on the right-hand side.
* Remark: Alain Connes'
non-commutative theory includes the standard model of particle physics and
euclidean gravity.
* Remark: The Wodzicki
residue of D−2, with
D the Dirac operator, is proportional to the Einstein-Hilbert action

more of an insurance policy against the probable failure of the other approaches." J M Gracia-Bondía
