The problem of quantum gravity has been completely solved

Mechanism-Revealed Physics (38/40) ----- by Bingcheng Zhao

Solving the problem of quantum gravity by proving that the hypothesized quantum gravity does not exist at all. Quantum gravity theory (QGT) is one of the most difficult intellectual challenges theoretical physicists have ever faced; QGT is also reputed to be one of the most difficult puzzles in science, being clearly demonstrated in some highly authoritative references (e.g., the encyclopedia of physics, Science Magazine, “The World’s 20 Greatest Unsolved Problems”, etc., P. 918 ~ 947, Appendix, reference #2). [*A few acronyms: QG = quantum gravity, QGT = quantum gravity theory, EPBGR = Einstein’s postulate-based general relativity, QM = quantum mechanics, OEPIEP law = the law of Orbiting Electron Periodic Impulse Emitting Photons].

How to solve the problem of quantum gravity? The problem has been completely solved by proving that the hypothesized quantum gravity does not exist at all (P. 872 ~ 878, 9.5, Ch.9B, reference #2). The hypothesized quantum gravity (QG) has been proven does not and cannot exist at all. Evidence 1: the prerequisite of existing QG is the unification of QM and EPBGR. However, it has been proven that QM and EPBGR can never be unified at all (P. 848 ~ 858, 9.2, Ch.9A, reference #2), because QM and EPBGR are mechanistically thus essentially incompatible (i.e., the incompatibility of QM and EPBGR is fundamentally inherent), which in turn is due to that QM has been proven and demonstrated to be fundamentally, mechanistically thus essentially, and crucially wrong (P. 346 ~ 359, 3.19, Ch.3E, reference #1), and due to that EPBGR has been proven to be mechanistically thus essentially wrong (P. 399 ~ 444, Ch.4A, reference #1). Consequently, the prerequisite of existing QG utterly does not exist at all; the hypothesized QG does not exist at all, accordingly. Evidence 2: it has been proven that the hypothesized gravity quantization cannot be mechanistically materialized at all, i.e., there is utterly no mechanism causing gravity to be quantized at all. Therefore, the hypothesized QG does not and cannot exist at all; i.e., the hypothesized quantum gravity theory (QGT) does not and cannot exist at all. Naturally, any efforts and any theories attempting to establish QGT have been fruitless and will be forever fruitless. In addition, several available clues consistent with the proven fact that the hypothesized QG does not exist have been provided and analyzed; the essentially fatal mistakes in present typical opinions or perceptions on the hypothesized but factually not existing QGT have been identified and analyzed.

The key to understanding of the proven fact that the hypothesized quantum gravity does not exist: (1) the well-known and undeniable fact that quantum mechanics (QM) does not and cannot know why there are quantum states. (2) The well-known and undeniable fact that EPBGR does not and cannot know why time and space are variable thus relative in gravitational field. (3) The crucial incompatibility of QM and EPBGR has been widely recognized as the greatest theoretical challenge in physics by highly authoritative references (e.g., the encyclopedia of physics, Science Magazine, “The World’s 20 Greatest Unsolved Problems”, etc., P. 918 ~ 947, Appendix, reference #2). (4) Knowing of why there are quantum states through the newly established also mechanism-revealed OEPIEP law, because OEPIEP law not only proves why there are quantum states via dynamically revealing why and how photons are quantized (P. 193 ~ 214, Ch.2A, reference #1), but also shows why the hypothesized gravity quantization cannot be mechanistically materialized (P. 873, reference #2). (5) New concept and creative think way.
