Physicists generally believe that the singularity implies general relativity itself is incomplete and that a theory of quantum gravity is needed to describe it.

UnverifiedThe singularity is a solution given by the equations of general relativity inside a black hole, representing spacetime curvature tending to infinity; in classical theory all laws of physics break down at the singularity.79% similarUnverifiedIn 1915, Einstein published the general theory of relativity, redefining gravity as the curvature of spacetime.68% similarUnverifiedSpecial relativity is based on two fundamental postulates: the laws of physics take the same form in all inertial reference frames (the principle of relativity), and the speed of light in vacuum is constant for all observers.68% similarUnverifiedSome people take quantum mechanics as an example and argue that it is itself partly "cognitively unavailable"—we can calculate but find it hard to truly understand.68% similarUnverifiedThe AdS/CFT duality proposed by Maldacena establishes a precise mathematical correspondence between physics in anti-de Sitter space with gravity and a quantum field theory without gravity on its boundary.66% similar
