Quantum theory and the structure of space-time (1707.01012v2)

Published 4 Jul 2017 in quant-ph, gr-qc, and hep-th

Abstract: We argue that space and space-time emerge as a consequence of dynamical collapse of the wave function of macroscopic objects. Locality and separability are properties of our approximate, emergent universe. At the fundamental level, space-time is non-commutative, and dynamics is non-local and non-separable.
