Dualism of spacetime as the origin of the fermion mass hierarchy
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that hypothetical dualism of spacetime could give rise to the pattern observed in the properties of the fundamental fermions. By guessing at the basic symmetries of space that underlie the properties of the simplest possible (primitive) particle it is found that these symmetries imply the existence of a series of structures – equilibrium configurations of primitive particles – whith properties that cohere with those of the fundamental fermions, including their masses.

Grand Unification at Intermediate Mass Scales through Extra Dimensions
One of the drawbacks of conventional grand unification scenarios has been that the unification scale is too high to permit direct exploration. In this paper, we show that the unification scale can be significantly lowered (perhaps even to the TeV scale) through the appearance of extra spacetime dimensions. Such extra dimensions are a natural consequence of string theories with largeradius compa...
متن کاملGeometry-free neutrino masses in curved spacetime
The seesaw-induced neutrino mass is discussed in a generic class of curved spacetime, including the flat and warped extra dimensions. For Majorana masses in the bulk and on the boundary, the exact forms of seesaw-induced masses are derived by using the Kaluza-Klein mode expansion and the lepton number violating correlator for bulk fermion. It is found that the neutrino mass is determined withou...

In this paper, we consider a massive charged scalar field coupled to a uniform electric field background in a 3 dimensional de Sitter spacetime. We consider the value of the dimensionless coupling constant of the scalar field to the scalar curvature of a 3 dimensional de Sitter spacetime equal to 1/8. We compute the expectation value of the trace of the energy-momentum tensor in the in-vacuum s...
متن کاملExtra Spacetime Dimensions and Unification
We study the effects of extra spacetime dimensions at intermediate mass scales, as expected in string theories with large-radius compactifications, and focus on the gauge and Yukawa couplings within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We find that extra spacetime dimensions naturally lead to the appearance of grand unified theories at scales substantially below the usual GUT scale. Furth...
