Induced gauge interactions revisited

TL;DR

This paper revisits the concept of induced gauge interactions, demonstrating that they can produce realistic parameters for the Standard Model and potentially induce the Barbero--Immirzi parameter in canonical gravity.

Contribution

It shows that Sakharov's induced gravity and gauge interactions can yield realistic coupling constants and induce the Barbero--Immirzi parameter from Standard Model fields.

Findings

Induced gauge couplings match realistic Standard Model values.

The Barbero--Immirzi parameter can be induced from Standard Model fields.

The approach supports the viability of induced gravity and gauge interactions.

Abstract

It has been shown that the old-fashioned idea of Sakharov's induced gravity and gauge interactions in the "one-loop dominance" version works astonishingly well yielding reasonable parameters. It appears that induced coupling constants of gauge interactions of the standard model assume qualitatively realistic values. Moreover, it is possible to induce the Barbero--Immirzi parameter of canonical gravity from the fields entering the standard model.
