- Abstract: In this letter we highlight the structure and main properties of an abstract approach to quantum cosmology and gravity dubbed $SU(\infty)$-QGR. Beginning from the concept of the Universe as an isolated quantum system, the main axiom of the model is the existence of infinite number of mutually commuting observables. Consequently, the Hilbert space of the Universe represents $SU(\infty)$ symmetry. This Universe as a whole is static and topological. Nonetheless, quantum fluctuations induce local clustering in its quantum state and divide it to approximately isolated subsystems representing $G \times SU(\infty)$ symmetry, where $G$ is a generic finite rank internal symmetry for each subsystem that is entangled to the rest of the Universe by the global $SU(\infty)$ symmetry. In addition to parameters characterizing representation of $G$ by subsystems, their states depend on 4 continuous parameters: two of them characterize the representation of $SU(\infty)$, a dimensionful parameter arises from the possibility of comparing representations of $SU(\infty)$ by different subsystems, and the forth parameter is a measurable used as time registered by an arbitrary subsystem chosen as a quantum clock. They introduce a relative dynamics for subsystem formulated by a symmetry invariant effective Lagrangian defined on the (3+1)D parameter space. At lowest quantum order it is a Yang-Mills field theory for both $SU(\infty)$ and internal symmetries. We identify the common $SU(\infty)$ symmetry and its interaction with gravity. Thus, $SU(\infty)$-QGR predicts a spin-1 mediator for quantum gravity. Apparently this is in contradiction with classical gravity. Nonetheless, we show that an observer unable to detect the quantumness of gravity perceives its effect as the curvature of the space of average values of aforementioned parameters. We prove that emergent spacetime has a Lorentzian geometry.

$SU(infty)$-QGR is a quantum approach to Universe and gravity.
Its main assumption is infinite mutually commuting observables in the Universe.
When quantumness of gravity is undetectable, it is perceived as curvature of an effective spacetime.

$SU(infty)$-QGR is a foundationally quantum approach to gravity.
It assumes that the Hilbert space of the Universe as a whole represents the symmetry group $SU(infty)$.
We show that the global $SU(infty)$ symmetry manifests itself through the entanglement of subsystems with the rest of the Universe.

The observables associated with a quantum system $S$ form a non-commutative algebra $mathcal A_S$.
It is assumed that a density matrix $rho$ can be determined from the expectation values of observables.
Abelian algebras do not have inner automorphisms, so the measurement apparatus can determine mean values of observables.

The purpose is to find their common and analogous features, even if they apparently seem to have different roles and interpretations.
