Abstract

ABSTRACT This research examines the possibility whether the curvatures found in conventional general relativity (GR) are the only existing ones, using both analytical and numerical techniques. To this end, we introduce a thorough investigation of Riemann curvatures in the spacetime surrounding a Kerr–Newmann black hole, which is distinguished by its specific electric charges and rotational dynamics. We apply a geometric quantization ansatz that centers on the quantization of the metric tensor, from which the complete set of field equations can be derived. The conformal transformation of the standard metric tensor upholds all the principles of GR while also extending its applicability to lower (quantum) scales. We recognize two types of Riemann curvatures. In addition to the positive curvatures present in classical GR formulations, we also find significant negative curvatures at lower (quantum) scales. This may indicate quantum sources of gravitation that classical GR does not seem equipped to explore.
