Thickness Parameter

Suppose we assume that (a) information about a black hole is encoded in its Hawking radiation and (b) causality is not violated to leading order in gently curved spacetime. Then, we argue that spacetime cannot just be described as a manifold with a shape; it must be given an additional attribute which we call “thickness.” This thickness characterizes the spread of the quantum gravity wave functional in superspace — the space of all three-geometries. Low energy particles travel on spacetime without noticing the thickness parameter, so they just see an effective manifold. Objects with energy large enough to create a horizon do note the finite thickness; this modifies the semiclassical evolution in such a way that we avoid horizon formation and the consequent violation of causality.

New Formula

Many approaches to quantum gravity consider the revision of the space-time geometry and the structure of elementary particles. One of the main candidates is string theory. It is possible that this theory will be able to describe the problem of hierarchy, provided that there is an appropriate Calabi-Yau geometry. In this paper we will proceed from the traditional view on the structure of elementary particles in the usual four-dimensional space-time. The only condition is that quarks and leptons should have a common emerging structure. When a new formula for the mass of the hierarchy is obtained, this structure arises from topological quantum theory and a suitable choice of dimensional units.
