Title: On the emergent origin of the inertial mass
Authors: Ricardo Gallego Torrom\'e, J. M. Isidro, Pedro Fern\'andez de C\'ordoba
Abstract summary: It is argued the emergent origin of the inertial mass of a physical systems. Two main consequences are discussed: an emergent interpretation of the law of inertia and a derivation of the energy-time uncertainty relation.

Abstract: In the context of a particular framework of emergent quantum mechanics, it is argued the emergent origin of the inertial mass of a physical systems. Two main consequences of the theory are discussed: an emergent interpretation of the law of inertia and a derivation of the energy-time uncertainty relation.

Relaxation of first-class constraints and the quantization of gauge theories: from "matter without matter" to the reappearance of time in quantum gravity [72.27323884094953]
We make a conceptual overview of an approach to the initial-value problem in canonical gauge theories. We stress how the first-class phase-space constraints may be relaxed if we interpret them as fixing the values of new degrees of freedom.

Does the Universe have its own mass? [62.997667081978825]
The mass of the universe is a distribution of non-zero values of gravitational constraints. A formulation of the Euclidean quantum theory of gravity is also proposed to determine the initial state. Being unrelated to ordinary matter, the distribution of its own mass affects the geometry of space.

Correspondence Between the Energy Equipartition Theorem in Classical Mechanics and its Phase-Space Formulation in Quantum Mechanics [62.997667081978825]
In quantum mechanics, the energy per degree of freedom is not equally distributed. We show that in the high-temperature regime, the classical result is recovered.

Gravitational entanglement and the mass contribution of internal energy in nonrelativistic quantum systems [0.0]
Post-Newtonian gravitational effects in composite nonrelativistic quantum systems have been discussed, where the internal energy contributes to the mass, promoting the mass to a Hilbert space operator. It can be shown that both concepts, when combined, result in inconsistencies, reinforcing the arguments for the necessity of a rigorous derivation of the nonrelativistic limit of gravitating quantum matter from first principles.

We argue that the weak equivalence principle is a consequence of concentration of measure in large dimensional spaces of $1$-Lipshitz functions. It is argued that gravity must be a classical, emergent interaction.
