Gravitation at Very Short Distances

TL;DR

This paper discusses the implications of Verlinde's entropic gravity, suggesting that conventional quantum gravity renormalization may be misguided since gravity between elementary particles could be nonexistent.

Contribution

It challenges the assumption that quantum gravity can be renormalized by proposing gravity between elementary particles may vanish according to entropic gravity.

Findings

Gravity between elementary particles vanishes in Verlinde's framework

Conventional quantum gravity renormalization may be based on false presumption

Implications for the nature of gravity at very short distances

Abstract

In this note, it is discussed why attempts to renormalize conventional quantum gravity may be based on a false presumption, because, according to Verlinde's entropic view of gravity, the gravitational force between two elementary particles vanishes.
