Gravity as Entanglement
Entanglement as gravity
(Introduction)
Vasil Penchev1
The objectives are:
− To investigate the conditions under which the mathematical formalisms of general
relativity and of quantum mechanics go over each other.
− To interpret those conditions meaningfully and physically.
− To comment that interpretation mathematically and philosophically.
Scientific prudence, or what are not our objectives:
− To say whether entanglement and gravity are the same or they are not: For example,
our argument may be glossed as a proof that any of the two mathematical
formalisms needs perfection because gravity and entanglement really are
not one and the same.
− To investigate whether other approaches for quantum gravity
are consistent with that if any at all.
Background:
− Eric Verlinde’s entropic theory of gravity (2009): “Gravity is
explained as an entropic force caused by changes in the information
associated with the positions of material bodies” (Verlinde 2009: 1).
