*RESUMEN*: In this talk two perspectives of Quantum Gravity induced
modifications of General Relativity (GR) will be discussed: Generalized
Uncertainty Principle  framework and Horava Gravity  framework. Both
frameworks depend crucially on Dirac’s formulation of Hamiltonian
constraint dynamics.

Generalized Uncertainty Principle framework:  Compatibility with GUP
requires a generalization of the relativistic point particle model. In an
external curved background this will lead to deviations from the geodesic
motion leading to possible violations of Equivalence Principle.

Horava Gravity framework:  Higher spatial derivative terms are introduced
in GR to improve the short distance behaviour of the graviton propagator.
This extension, expected to be important at short distance (or high
energy), explicitly breaks Lorentz invariance. We discuss some aspects of
this in a toy model.

Signatures of Quantum Gravity effects are expectedly very small to be
observed in present day experiments.

La entrada es libre y gratuita.
