Abstract:

In the framework of the manifestly-covariant canonical theory of quantum gravity proposed previously, a background curved space-time is introduced as the space-time-dependent vacuum expectation value of the gravitational field. The properties of the corresponding asymptotic fields are investigated in detail.
