Thermal relativity, corrections to black hole entropy, Born’s reciprocal relativity theory, and quantum gravity

Abstract

Starting with a brief description of Born’s reciprocal relativity theory (BRRT), based on a maximal proper force, maximal speed of light, and inertial and non-inertial observers, we derive the exact thermal relativistic corrections to the Schwarzschild, Reissner–Nordstrom, and Kerr–Newman black hole entropies and provide a detailed analysis of the many novel applications and consequences to the physics of black holes, quantum gravity, minimal area, minimal mass, Yang–Mills mass gap, information paradox, arrow of time, dark matter, and dark energy. We finish by outlining our proposal towards a space–time–matter unification program where matter can be converted into spacetime quanta and vice versa.
