Abstract

General relativity (GR) in its current classical formulation is fundamentally different from quantum mechanics (QM). We argue that the everlasting battle for exploring and understanding the Universe and then privileging a consistent perception of reality is therefore awaiting a consolidator rather than a conqueror. This should be capable of either unifying these two different benchmarks or at least bringing one closer to another! The latter conservatively describes the consolidating quantum geometric approach, which combines generalization of QM to relativistic energies and gravitational fields and continuous Riemann to discretized Finsler geometry. We found that this type of quantum geometric approach seems to unveil additional quantum-conditioned spacetime curvatures (QCC), sources of gravitation), which obviously could not be disclosed in Einstein's GR, especially at large scales. This study introduces analytical and numerical analyses of QCC. We conclude that (i) nature and characteristics of QCC are fundamentally distinguishable from the classical GR's spacetime curvatures, (ii) the QCC are intrinsic, real and essential, i.e. not artifacts that would be removed in a certain coordinate transformation and (iii) the magnitude of QCC are nonnegligible to be underestimated. We also conclude that the spacetime at quantum scales seems to be no longer smooth or continuous so that the proposed quantum geometric approach would be regarded as a novel mathematical framework for the emergence of quantum gravity. Last but not least, a maximal proper force is predicted as a new physical constant, which is responsible for the maximal and gravitational acceleration of a quantum particle that would live in the emerged spacetime curvatures. Thereby, the quantum geometric nature of QCC can be accessed and assessed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
