Universal quantum mechanics

Understand

If gravity respects quantum mechanics, it is important to identify the essential postulates of a quantum framework capable of incorporating gravitational phenomena.

• Such a construct likely requires elimination or modification of some of the "standard" postulates of quantum mechanics, in particular those involving time and measurement.
• This paper proposes a framework that appears sufficiently general to incorporate some expected features of quantum gravity.
• These include the statement that space and time may only emerge approximately and relationally.
