Expanding LQG around a ground state

Why not expand LQG around a ground state? It makes more sense? psi(A) = Sum_loops exp(iA.dx) * Ground(A) In 2+1 dimensions Ground(A) might be for example the chern simons invariant. AdA+(2/3)A^A^A

Wheeler de witt gravitons

Let us take a wave function of the metric at time T=0. Expanded around a flat space g  = n + h. Ψ[h] = a +  Ψ( x )h( x ,0) +  Ψ( x , y )h( x ,0)h( y ,0) + ..... The Wheeler-de-Witt equation should give a relation between the  Ψ s. Because g is a linear function of h, d/dh=d/dg. When expanded in terms of h, this has an infinite number of terms. This imposes very special constraints on  Ψ  to give it the right symmetries. (A similar thing happens in string theory). ((gg+gg-gg) d/dh( x ,0) d/dh( x ,0) + det(g)R[g] )   Ψ[h] = 0 This equation says how the wave function amplitudes are connected  be when 2 particles are in the same place.  If h^2 is approximately 0. Then h behaves like a gauge field. Part 2 ------- Lets take a different expansion g=exp(h) , det(g) = exp(Tr(h)) , delta h = da + db? Then this timer d/dg = g^-1 d/dh (  d/dh d/dh +  exp(Tr[h]+h+h-h)*(dh)^2 )   Ψ[h] = 0 ? Ψ(x) = exp(-x^2) = 1 - x^2 + x^4/2! +... int exp(-x^2) dx = sqrt(pi)  exp(-

Double Torus Gear

Invention A pair of interlocking tori with a helical grooves may serve as a transmission gear???

Holographic Statistics

Suppose we take the idea that particles can never be inside a black hole event horizon as an axiom. This means we can either set the 2-particle wave function for cases where particles are too close to zero. But this does not lead to smooth functions. Another option is to reflect this part of the wave function back out to infinity. For stationary masses m_1 and m_2. Ψ (x,y) =  Ψ ( (x + y)/2 +  (x-y) (m_1+m_2) /|x-y|/2,    (x + y)/2 - (m_1+m_2) (x-y) | x-y|/2 ) u=  (x + y)/2 +  (x-y) (m_1+m_2) /|x-y|/2 v= (x + y)/2 - (m_1+m_2) (x-y) | x-y|/2 L = (d/dy^2-m2^2)(d/dx^2-m1^2) Ψ (x,y)  + (d/dv^2-m1^2)(d/dv^2-m^2) Ψ (u,v) ?? invariant under x->u, y->v so  Ψ(0,r) =  Ψ(0,m/r) ? Ψ(0,m) =  Ψ(0,m) Ψ(m,0) =  Ψ(m,0) Ψ(m/2,m/2) =  Ψ(m/2,m/2) H=s(x,y)[ Ψ (x,y) -  Ψ ( (x + y)/2 +  (x-y) (m_1+m_2) /|x-y|/2,    (x + y)/2 - (m_1+m_2) (x-y) | x-y|/2 ) ] dxdy

An exceptional quantum mechanics in 26 dimensions?

One of the axioms of field theory is that the amplitude for a path is exp(i L ) where L is distance from x to y. L is an invariant of O(n) where n is the number of dimensions. One might ask, it possible to have quantum mechanics in space where the symmetry is a different group? Sp(n) and SU(n) have invariants of the form xy-yx, which unfortunately are identically zero for commuting coordinates. So really we are only interested in groups that can be defined in terms of symmetric invariants. An interesting group is F4. In 26 dimensions it has the symmetric invariant (S): So we could define a quantum theory in this space with an invariant based on these two invariants. For example we could define our amplitude as: exp( i L + j S)  i  X' X'  +    j X' X'X'  ?

Lepton Masses

There are interesting relations between the lepton masses (see Koide formula). Also, we can see that the 3 masses come approximately from the equation: x 3 - 41 x 2 + 90 x -1 = 0 Where the answers (|x0|, |x1|, |x2|) * 45.76MeV Is this significant? Probably not. Most equations seem to have integer values.

An Exceptional Supersymmetry

An Exceptional Supersymmetry It is proposed in this article a way to construct an exceptional supersymmetry distinct from the family of usual supersymmetries usually labelled by N. (N=1, N=2, N=4 and N=8). It relies on the special properties of the root system of E 8 . It is a different kind of super-symmetry in that the superpartners don't have the same charge but together the charges from all the particles in the representation form a group. In a nut-shell we are assigning spins to elements of the E8 algebra and promoting them to super-symmetry operators. The special properties of E8 allows us to do this. Introduction The similarities between  N=8 Supersymmetry with 256 generators and the group E8 with 248 generators is suggestive that there might exist a combined structure with properties of both. Noting that E8 can be split into a bosonic part (a representation of O(16) ) and a fermionic part a spinor representation of O(16). We can assign a "spin" to each

These unit take the mass of the Top Quark (175GeV) equal to 1. Then we have approximately: m(top) = 1 m(H) = 1/ √2 m(W), m(Z)= 1/2 m(b) = 1/42 = 1/(6.7)    m(strange) = 1/1842 = 1/42^2 m(up) = 1/72000??? = 1/42^3 m(charm) = 1/141     (close to fine structure) m(down) <  1/182^2 m(tau) = 1/100   = 1/10^2 m(mu) = 1/1673  = 1/41^2  m(e)=1/345000 = 1/587^2   t(1)              b(A) c(B)             s(A^2) d(B^2)        u(A^3) A=1/42 B=1/135 m(v)=?=exp(-9) h=1 = 6.6[-34]m^2 kg/s c=1  = 3[8]m/s m(H)=2.22[-25]kg 1 s = 3*10^(-17) If we consider only mass^2 as important then we see: m(H)=1/sqrt(2), m(W or Z)=1/2, m(top)=1, m(bottom)=1/42 1 Length Unit = 1.0[-17]metres  /(1.414) 1 Time Unit = 3.3[-26] seconds   /(1.414) 1 Mass Unit = 2.22[-25]kg   (*1.414) G  = 6.67[-11]m^3/ kg/s^2 = 1.6[-35] Units = exp(-80) *2 6.67*10^(-11)/(10^(-17))^3*(2.22*10^(-25))*(3.3*10^(-26))^2 Age of universe = 1.3[43] Time units = exp(99) Makes proton width approximatel

Temporal Logic in Relativity

Classical Temporal Logic In classical theory any two events satisfy a time ordering. We shall call this classical temporal logic CTL . The rules of classical temporal logic are very simple. Since they are just the rules of inequalities of real numbers: A>B    →   B<A !(A>B)   →  A<B or A=B A>B & B>C  →  A>C Or equivalently given that x  →  y is equivalent to saying that (!x or y) is true, these rules can be given by saying that in CTL these statements are always true: !(A>B) or B<A A>B or A=B or A<B !(A>B) or !(B>C) or A>C With these rules we can dispense with the underlying geometric idea of events as points in space-time and we have all we need to know to compare the temporal ordering of events. Relativity In relativity there are four possibilities for events. Either event A is is in the future light-cone of event B in which case we write A>B or A is in the past light-cone of B so B<A. Maybe the events
