selfAdjoint said:I am sure the "graviton in the bulk" string theorists have worked out the low level Einstein relations - remember, the graviton does that, but it doesn't do it through the metric or curvature. The bulk and all remain flat Minkowski manifolds, unaffected by the physics.
Of course I have to think about what you are saying here. Some thought entered my mind when you referred to low level Einstein relations, that the thought of the quantum harmonic oscillator enter my mind. Also Plancklength, and Plancktime.
Quantum Harmonic Oscillator
The quantum harmonic oscillator has implications far beyond the simple diatomic molecule. It is the foundation for the understanding of complex modes of vibration in larger molecules, the motion of atoms in a solid lattice, the theory of heat capacity, etc. In real systems, energy spacings are equal only for the lowest levels where the potential is a good approximation of the "mass on a spring" type harmonic potential. The anharmonic terms which appear in the potential for a diatomic molecule are useful for mapping the detailed potential of such systems.

So at Plancklength how would we have ever ascertain probabilties with so many gravitons.
You are defintiely making me think here. I know we have referred to orbitals before and the uncertainty principal. Probability diagrams I thought would have spoken here.
But something else made it's way in the bose condensate and greg egan.
I think you will rememeber our conversation around this subject.
But I am still looking at this, as two informations sources have to be looked at that have been collected from Lubos and Baez.
