• Abstract: We develop a purely quantum theory based on the novel principle of relativity, termed the quantum principle of relativity, instead of applying the diffeomorphism invariance. We demonstrate that the essence of the principle of relativity can be naturally extended into the quantum realm, maintaining the identical structures of active and passive transformations. By employing this principle, we show that quantum gravitational effects are naturally incorporated into the renormalizable theory, with general relativity emerging in large distances. We derive graviton propagators and provide several examples grounded in this novel theory.

  We investigate how the superposition principle affects the gravitational time dilation observed by a simple clock. We show that the emission rate of an atom prepared in a coherent superposition of separated wave packets in a gravitational field is different from the emission rate of an atom in a classical mixture of these packets.

  We argue that the Equivalence Principle can be generalised so that it holds for reference frames associated to quantum systems in a superposition of spacetimes. This procedure reconciles the principle of linear superposition in Quantum Theory with the principle of general covariance and the Equivalence Principle of General Relativity.

  A new formulation of relativistic quantum mechanics is presented and applied to a free, massive, and spin zero elementary particle in the Minkowski spacetime. The reformulation requires that time and space, as well as the timelike and spacelike intervals, are treated equally, which makes the new theory fully symmetric and consistent with the Special Theory of Relativity.

  Quantum theory deals with objects probabilistically at small scales, whereas relativity deals classically with motion in space and time. We show here that the mathematical structures of quantum theory and of relativity follow together from pure thought. One dimension of time and three dimensions of space are thus derived as the profound and inevitable framework of physics.
