It presents a consistent and complete new relational formulation of quantum gravity (more specifically, of quantum mechanics models with diffeomorphism invariance), which is applied to potentially observable cosmological effects. The work provides answers to the following questions: How can the dynamics of quantum states of matter and geometry be defined in a diffeomorphism-invariant way? What is the relevant space of physical states and which operators act on it? How are the quantum states related to probabilities in the absence of a preferred time? The answers can provide a further part of the route to constructing a fundamental theory of quantum gravity. The book is well-suited to graduate students as well as professional researchers in the fields of general relativity and gravitation, cosmology, and quantum foundations. 001445729 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 15, 2022). 001445729 650_0 $$aQuantum gravity. 001445729 650_0 $$aCosmology. 001445729 650_0 $$aSpace and time. 001445729 650_6 $$aGravité quantique. 001445729 650_6 $$aCosmologie. 001445729 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001445729 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030944476$$z9783030944476$$w(OCoLC)1288320862 001445729 830_0 $$aSpringer theses. 001445729 852__ $$bebk 001445729 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-94448-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001445729 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1445729$$pGLOBAL_SET 001445729 980__ $$aBIB 001445729 980__ $$aEBOOK 001445729 982__ $$aEbook 001445729 983__ $$aOnline 001445729 994__ $$a92$$bISE
