We argue that the demand of background independence in a quantum theory of gravity calls for an extension of standard geometric quantum mechanics. We discuss a possible kinematical and dynamical generalization of the latter by way of a quantum covariance of the state space. Specifically, we apply our scheme to the problem of a background independent formulation of Matrix Theory.

  1. Information Metrics and Possible Limitations of Local Information Objectivity in Quantum Gravity

    gr-qc 2025-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Quantum gravity may permit contextual deviations from the Fisher metric, inducing observer-dependent modifications to the Born rule.

  2. Physical limits on information metrics and quantum gravity as gravitized quantum theory

    gr-qc 2025-04 reject novelty 3.0 of 10

    The authors argue that quantum gravity and general covariance force the information geometry of quantum theory to become dynamical, requiring a modified Born rule testable via triple-slit matter-wave interference.
