Four principles are proposed to underlie the quantum theory of gravity. We show that these suffice to recover the Einstein equations. We also suggest that MOND results from a modification of the classical equivalence principle, due to quantum gravity effects.

Quantum Spacetime Leaps: Higher Dimensional Energetic Causal Sets
gr-qc 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

A 2+1d simulation of Energetic Causal Sets exhibits a disorder-to-crystal phase transition, mirroring the 1+1d emergence of quasi-particles and showing limit-cycle behavior.
