Cellular Networks as Models for Planck-Scale Physics
Starting from the working hypothesis that both physics and the corresponding mathematics have to be described by means of discrete concepts on the Planck scale, one of the many problems one has to face in this enterprise is to nd the discrete protoforms of the building blocks of our ordinary continuum physics and mathematics. We base our own approach on what we call `cellular networks', consist...
متن کاملCPT and Lorentz violation as signatures for Planck-scale physics
In recent years, the breakdown of spacetime symmetries has been identified as a promising research field in the context of Planck-scale phenomenology. For example, various theoretical approaches to the quantum-gravity problem are known to accommodate minute violations of CPT invariance. This talk covers various topics within this research area. In particular, some mechanisms for spacetime-symme...
متن کاملTeV physics and the Planck scale
Supersymmetry is one of the best motivated possibilities for new physics at the TeV scale. However, both concrete string constructions and phenomenological considerations suggest the possibility that the physics at the TeV scale could be more complicated than the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), e.g., due to extended gauge symmetries, new vector-like supermultiplets with non-standa...
متن کاملPlanck Scale Symmetry Breaking and Majoron Physics
Majoron models provide neutrino masses via the spontaneous breaking of a global U(1) symmetry. However, it may be argued that all global symmetries will be explicitly violated by gravita-tional effects. We show that it is possible to preserve most of the usual features of majoron models by invoking U(1) B−L to be a gauge symmetry and adding a second singlet scalar field. The majoron gets a smal...
متن کاملPlanck-scale physics and neutrino masses.
We discuss gravitationally induced masses and mass splittings of Majorana, Zeldovich-Konopinski-Mahmoud and Dirac neutrinos. Among other implications, these effects can provide a solution of the solar neutrino puzzle. In particular, we show how this may work in the 17 keV neutrino picture.
