On a Quantum Theory of Emergent Spacetime and Gravity

Description

A theory for the emergence of spacetime and gravity from the Standard Model of physics is presented. It is shown that when flat meta-spacetime is introduced as a new layer of abstraction, curved classical spacetime emerges when the former is combined with quanta of fundamental excitations in the Standard Model and the polymorphic nature of the corresponding particles is taking into account. Particle polymorphism at quantum level is necessary when the system has one true ground state, nonzero number of false one(s) and finite number of particles within its relativistic event horizon(s). The implications on various fundamental cosmological problems are studied, including an order of magnitude unification of gravity, the gravitation constant G and the cosmological constraint Lambda using a single parameter free theoretical framework based on the Standard Model, the nature of dark energy, dark matter, gravitation wave, what is a "big bang", a mechanism for baryogenesis, life cycle of stars and interpretations of their non Newtonian behaviors, a theory for a cyclic intelligible Universe, possibility of "mini bangs" and baryon recycling, etc., are presented. It is claimed that the known fundamental interactions of nature can now be reduced by one with gravity being an emergent phenomenon. The separation of the concept of meta-spacetime and emergent one provides a nature logical bridge between quantum systems and the measurable classical properties attributed to it through which the "collapsing" of wave function during measurements becomes a prediction rather than an additional external assumption.
