The surface-Hadamard well-posedness conjecture for semiclassical gravity
Let be a 3-manifold with classical initial data , or for physical solutions, and let be a state on its CCR algebra satisfying the appropriate surface Hadamard condition. Semiclassical-gravity well-posedness conjecture. If the initial data and satisfy the gravitational constraint equations, there exists a unique solution of the semiclassical Einstein and Klein–Gordon equations such that is a Cauchy surface, the prescribed classical data are the restrictions of and its first three time derivatives (or first time derivative for physical solutions), and . This is the proposed full initial-value formulation; its existence and uniqueness remain open.
