John. W. Moffat, Ethan. J. Thompson

TL;DR
This paper introduces a holomorphic geometric framework unifying gravity, gauge interactions, and fermions into a single theory, reproducing the Standard Model and Einstein's equations from a complex manifold perspective.
Contribution
It presents a novel holomorphic geometric approach that unifies gravity, gauge fields, and fermions, providing a classical and quantum consistent model.
Findings
Reproduces Einstein's equations and Maxwell's equations from a holomorphic metric.
Encodes all gauge sectors in a single holomorphic connection, ensuring anomaly cancellation.
Unifies Standard Model particles and interactions within a geometric holomorphic framework.
Abstract
We present a holomorphic framework in which gravity, gauge interactions, and their couplings to charges and currents emerge from a single geometric action on a four-complex-dimensional manifold. The Hermitian metric yields on the real slice , a real symmetric metric giving the vacuum Einstein equations, and an antisymmetric part that reproduces Maxwell's equations with sources. A single holomorphic gauge connection for , such as or , encodes all gauge sectors; its Bianchi identities give homogeneous Yang--Mills equations, and variation imposes . Chiral fermions arise from a holomorphic Dirac Lagrangian and couple minimally to all gauge fields, reproducing the Standard Model spectrum. Anomaly cancellation follows from holomorphic gauge invariance. A holomorphic adjoint Higgs…
