Scientific paper

It is suggested that gravity may not be asymptotically free at short distances because of the interaction of the graviton with matter. If gravity indeed becomes strong at high energies, a revolutionary change of our present theory on the early universe would seem to be necessary. During the first extremely small fraction of a second in the big-bang universe, gravity would have been so strong that it might not have been described by Einstein's theory of general relativity. The possibility of abnormally strong gravity at high energies or short distances is discussed in some detail. A possible explanation is proposed for the nonvanishing mean baryon number density of the universe. It is also pointed out that the universe may well escape from the catastrophic singularity of Penrose and Hawking.
