dc.descriptionTwenty years ago, by extending the Wightman axiom framework, it has been found possible to quantize only a conformal factor of the gravitational field. Gravitons being excluded from this quantum scalar field theory, numerous attempts were done to give a valuable description of what could be quantum gravity. In this talk we present a familly of Lorentz manifolds which can be foliated by isotropic hypersurfaces and pose severe restrictions on the form of the energy-momentum tensor in Einstein's equations. They can be associated to gravitational waves "without gravitons" in a vacuum described by two cosmological functions, but not to a massless particle flow. From this cross-checking with the previous remark, a "very" primordial quantum cosmological scenario is proposed.
