Ingredients
● Why GR?
Newtonian gravity
Vs
Einstein's gravity
Particle moves in straight line until hit by a force
Gravity is not a force but a result of space-time geometry

Equivalence Principle.
A choice of chart (coordinates) is arbitrary and the physics should not depend on this!
A convenient way to describe chart-independent equations is to use tensors, which can be thought of generalisations of vectors, with possibly more indices

In GR test particles always move along geodesics.

(timelike trajectory)
Objects move along geodesics until a force knocks them off!

Actually, we have an arbitrary choice of coordinates. Therefore, there are only 10-4=6 variables to determine, which can be found using the evolution equations.

Black holes have no hair
If matter collapses into a black hole, then all information would be lost, since the later is described by its Mass, Charge and Angular Momentum only.
Moreover, due to quantum processes, it emits isotropic (Hawking) radiation in a rate proportional to its mass (M). Therefore, it looses energy and evaporates in a time of the order
The associated radiation temperature is related to its surface gravity (acceleration of observer on its horizon).

Bottom up approach
Is GR unique?
(Kraichnan, Feynman, Weinberg, Boulware, Deser, etc.)
● Electromagnetism
– The vector field (spin 1) couples to conserved current, but it does not contribute to it (photons do not carry charge!)
● Gravity
– The graviton field (spin 2) couples to conserved current (energy-momentum tensor), and it does contribute to it (c.f. Yang-Mills)

Bottom up approach
Basic idea
● To recover Einstein's theory from linear theory of gravitons coupled to the gravitational energy momentum tensor
● Assumptions:
– Symmetric stress-energy tensor
– Second order derivatives
– Total derivatives (boundary terms) irrelevant
– Key one: local Lorentz symmetry● Infinite series in metric field, but finite in the right variables

To recover Newtonian physics

Theorems
Lovelock's Theorem
Implications:
1) Terms in the Lagrangian such as
which give second order field equations in 5d, are topological in 4d.

Theorems
Lovelock's Theorem
2) To modify Einstein's theory we need
● Consider more fields (beyond the spin-2)
● Accept higher order derivatives in field equations
● Higher dimensions
● Give up rank (0,2) field eqns, symmetry of the indices in eqns, or divergence free equations
● Give up locality

1)SUSY SUGRA (helps but not a solution)
2)Lorentz
● Horava-Liftshitz gravity
3)Non-perturbative methods
● Asymptotic safety
4)Path integral
● Wave function of the Universe● Spin-foams

UV: Non-renormalisable
Possible ways out
4)Canonical quantization (background independent)
● Wheeler-deWitt● Loop quantum gravity
5)New physics/mathematics
● Algebraic structures (Kac-Moody)● BCJ amplitudes?
● String Theory● Etc.
