Standard supersymmetry from a Planck-scale statistical theory

TL;DR

This paper proposes a novel approach to derive standard physics, including supersymmetry, from a Planck-scale statistical framework by transforming fields, redefining time, and converting path integrals.

Contribution

It introduces three new ideas for deriving standard supersymmetry from a Planck-scale statistical theory, including field transformations and a new time definition.

Findings

Fields are transformed from spin 1/2 bosonic to spin 0 with auxiliary fields.

Time is defined via the progression of 3-geometries.

Euclidean path integrals are converted to Lorentzian form.

Abstract

We outline three new ideas in a program to obtain standard physics, including standard supersymmetry, from a Planck-scale statistical theory: (1) The initial spin 1/2 bosonic fields are transformed to spin 0 fields together with their auxiliary fields. (2) Time is defined by the progression of 3-geometries, just as originally proposed by DeWitt. (3) The initial (D-1)-dimensional "path integral" is converted from Euclidean to Lorentzian form by transformation of the fields in the integrand.
