Space-time structure in the microcosm and its relation to the properties of elementary particles

The relations between the hidden symmetries of the six-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space with signature (+++ -- ) and the conserved quantum characteristics of elementary particles is established. The hidden symmetries are brought out by the various forms of representation of the pseudo-Euclidean space metric with the aid of spinors and hyperbolic complex numbers. Using the emerging hidden symmetry groups one can disclose such conserved quantum characteristics as spin, isospin, electric and baryon charges, hypercharge, color and flavor. One can also predict the exact number of such conserved quantum characteristics of quarks as color and flavor.

A geometric model of gravitating mass formation and baryon mass spectrum

The operator of elementary particle mass spectrum is constructed on the basis of the postulate of a six-dimensional space-time manifold having a Riemann-Cartan space structure, proceeding only from its geometric properties. Special solutions found for this operator well describe the mass spectrum of the known quark triplet and hence of some baryon supermultiplets.
