Outline of a superunification model

Tensor products of standard model bosons and fermions form a spin-2 self-realization of SU(5), and because every quark can be interpreted as a lepton that has coupled to an appropriate element of this adjoint representation, and inversely, SUGRA GUT interactions between proposed spin-2 elements and baryons of spin 3/2, can exist as residual manifestations of quark-lepton transitions that occur within baryonic domains of asymptotic freedom. It is argued that these interactions preserve baryonic structure and continually re-establish a locally SUSY version of broken SU(5), indicating a recurring inflation event that addresses the large scale.

SUGRA interactions at thresholds of asymptotic freedom

A generic heterotic string theory is uniquely reduced to the standard model in terms of a geometry that transcends compactification. This device also extends the standard model to embrace three generations of fermions, including a left-handed strange quark that is devoid of strangeness and three right-handed neutrinos. Finally the proposed hypothesis indicates supergravitationally mediated quark-lepton transitions that preserve baryon structure, departing from the SUSY GUT tradition that predicts proton decay.

Interfacing Friedman and string cosmologies

Compactification and symmetry breaking events in theories of heterotic superstrings implicitly indicate five inflation events. Scales of 10^{9} ly and larger are modeled in terms of these events. The proposed model accounts qualitatively for recent observations (of galactic clusters that lie on "thin,.. semi-spherical shells") and motivates a calculation that accounts (approximately) for the observed number of galaxies.

A differential geometric context in which quantization is a necessary condition for gauge invariance

It has recently been argued that quantization can be established within classical theory as a consequence of lost information. In this view, classical mechanics is regarded as a union of quantum mechanics and what are called 'hidden variables'. Hidden variable theories were first considered some years ago and abandoned because they did not produce new physics. They have now been revived however, because they appear to provide a logically sound means of relating classical and quantum theories. It is argued here that the Heisenberg uncertainty relations constitute a necessary condition for gauge invariance in the 5-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory, where the fifth dimension of 5-spacetime is hidden as a 5-dimensional theory of general relativity is projected onto 4-spacetime.

SUGRA interactions within flavor triplets

A specific new quark permits that flavor generations constitute a representation of the 3-dimensional SU(3) symmetry that characterizes the Z(3) orbifold. In this context, color and supergravity bind triplets and 4-tuplets into composite fields of spin 3/2 and spin 2; and the symmetry E(8) that characterizes (the observable sector of) 10-spacetime is interpreted as having reduced to SU(5)XSU(3), where SU(3) refers to the 3-dimensional symmetry described above and SU(5) consists of colors and of isotopic spin classes that are devoid of color and hypercharge. In this context, supergravity interactions occur to color bound quarks that are experiencing asymptotic freedom within triplets. Quark-lepton transitions are produced, but quickly reverse, preserving the triplets. The symmetry consisting of six quark classes and six lepton classes is also maintained because the predicted quark is an anomalous, left-handed version of the strange quark.

Quantization as a Necessary Condition for Gauge Invariance

Symmetry and quantization are the two major enterprises of theoretical physics; but some argue that quantization can be derived as a necessary condition for symmetry. It is argued here that the Heisenberg uncertainty principle is a necessary condition for gauge invariance in the 5-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory.

Quantization as a Consequence of Symmetry

It is argued that the Heisenberg relation on 4-spacetime is a necessary condition for the local gauge invariance of a classical wave in the 5-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory.

A Realistic Superunification

It is argued that every quark flavor can be described as a lepton that has been excited by the absorption of a supernatural field, which is defined. In this context, a minimal irriducible representation of SUSY SU(5) is constructed exclusively of the chiral modes that correspond to three generations of leptons (or quarks) and their scaler superpartners. The proposed model predicts a new quark; a left-handed (non-strange) version of the strange quark.

Supergravity Interactions in the SU(4)XU(1)Vacuum of Global Supersymmetry

It is shown that quarks and leptons can couple intrinsically to pure supergravity, preserving for this context the degeneracy of globally supersymmetric vacua, and specifically preserving the vacuum that is characterized by SU(4)XU(1). A fundamental representation of SUSY SU(4)XU(1) is constructed in terms of quarks, and it is demonstrated that the symmetry of this fundamental representation is invariant under supergravity interactions that produce quark-lepton transitions. The importance of this tensorial flavor structure is that it predicts a new, seventh quark of charge -1/3, a left-handed (non-strange) version of the strange quark.
