Restoring classical energy conditions at quantized level
Year: 2020
Type: preprint
Abstract: We propose a mechanism for restoring classical energy conditions at quantized level based on quantum inequalities and quantum interest conjecture. More concretely, we assume for each quantum state in our visible universe to have an anti-state trapped at quantum gravity scale but with negative energies (unlike ordinary anti-states which have positive energies). We verified this assumption numerically for the case of quantum states in the Minkowski spacetime and anti-states trapped in the de-sitter spacetime with negative energies. The proposed mechanism answers many outstanding questions related to the arrow of time problem, possible interpretation of the weakness of gravity and hierarchy problem, the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics, matter-antimatter asymmetry. Moreover, the proposed mechanism gives a strong endorsement to inflation as a possible solution of flatness and horizon problems.
