Title:
From Quantum Mechanics to Spacetime
Abstract:
Nine decades in, the foundations of quantum mechanics remain mysterious.
Meanwhile, modern physicists puzzle over how to reconcile quantum mechanics
with gravity. I will suggest that these problems are related, and that a
promising strategy suggests itself: rather than "quantizing gravity," we should
look for gravity within quantum mechanics. This approach has interesting
consequences for how we think about the nature of space and time.
