=== Other theories === There are a number of other approaches to quantum gravity. The theories differ depending on which features of general relativity and quantum theory are accepted unchanged, and which features are modified.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Isham |first=Christopher J. |title=Canonical Gravity: From Classical to Quantum |author-link=Christopher Isham |contribution=Prima facie questions in quantum gravity |editor-last=Ehlers |editor-first=Jürgen |editor2-last=Friedrich |editor2-first=Helmut |volume=434 |pages=1–21 |date=1994 |publisher=Springer |arxiv=gr-qc/9310031 |isbn=978-3-540-58339-4 |bibcode=1994LNP...434....1I |doi=10.1007/3-540-58339-4_13 |series=Lecture Notes in Physics |s2cid=119364176 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Sorkin |first=Rafael D. |author-link= Rafael Sorkin |title=Forks in the Road, on the Way to Quantum Gravity |arxiv=gr-qc/9706002 |journal=[[International Journal of Theoretical Physics]] |volume=36 |date=1997 |issue=12 |pages=2759–2781 |doi=10.1007/BF02435709 |bibcode = 1997IJTP...36.2759S |s2cid=4803804 }}</ref> Such theories include: {{columns-list|colwidth=17em| * [[Asymptotic safety in quantum gravity]] * [[Euclidean quantum gravity]] * [[Virtual black hole|Integral method]]<ref>{{Cite web |last=Klimets |first=A.
