Modified General Relativity and quantum theory in curved spacetime
Abstract: With appropriate modifications, the multi-spin Klein-Gordon (KG) equation of quantum field theory can be adapted to curved spacetime for spins 0,1,1/2. The associated particles in the microworld then move as a wave at all spacetime coordinates. From the existence in a Lorentzian spacetime of a line element field $(X{\beta},-X{\beta}) $, the spin-1 KG equation $\nabla_{\mu}\nabla{\mu}X{\beta}=k{2}X{\beta} $ is derived from an action functional involving $X{\beta} $ and its covariant derivative. The spin-0 KG equation and the KG equation of the outer product of a spin-1/2 Dirac spinor and its Hermitian conjugate are then constructed. Thus, $ X{\beta} $ acts as a fundamental quantum vector field. The symmetric part of the spin-1 KG equation, $ \tilde{\varPsi}{\alpha\beta}$, is the Lie derivative of the metric. That links the multi-spin Klein-Gordon equation to Modified General Relativity (MGR) through its energy-momentum tensor of the gravitational field. From the invariance of the action functionals under the diffeomorphism group Diff(M), which is not restricted to the Lorentz group, $ \tilde{\varPsi}{\alpha\beta}$ can instantaneously transmit information along $ X{\beta} $. That establishes the concept of entanglement within a Lorentzian formalism. The respective local/nonlocal characteristics of MGR and quantum theory no longer present an insurmountable problem to unify the theories.
