  • $\begingroup$ “Relativity and quantum theory” — careful, relativistic quantum field theory exists. We do not have a theory of quantum gravitation, but that does not mean we cannot treat quantum situations relativistically. $\endgroup$ Commented May 27 at 11:59
  • $\begingroup$ Nearly every statement is wrong in paragraphs 2 and 3. But maybe with the fourth one, you may be interested in QFT in curved space? $\endgroup$ Commented May 27 at 12:00
  • $\begingroup$ See also Kaluza-Klein theory where electromagnetism in 4D can be considered to be a gravitational effect in certain 5D topologies. $\endgroup$ Commented May 27 at 12:03
  • $\begingroup$ I think the problem for GR is that it makes ridiculous prediction or break down at high energy scale ? and in that case your idea wouldn't fix the problem $\endgroup$ Commented May 27 at 12:26
  • $\begingroup$ The fields are scalar. Why do you think that? Of the 17 quantum fields in the Standard Model, only one is scalar. $\endgroup$ Commented May 27 at 17:33
