Space-time foam, induced by one-loop quantum-gravitational corrections
Description
Space-time may have large fluctuations of geometry on short-length scales, which are induced by one-loop quantum-gravitational corrections. Some instanton-like self-consistent solutions have been found, which describe these space-time fluctuations. (orig.)
