World-making with extended gravity black holes for cosmic natural selection in the multiverse scenario

TL;DR

This paper explores how black holes in string-inspired higher-order curvature gravity could facilitate universe creation, contributing to the cosmic natural selection hypothesis within multiverse scenarios.

Contribution

It introduces a novel mechanism for universe creation via black holes in extended gravity theories, linking string-inspired modifications to cosmic natural selection.

Findings

Black holes may serve as universe progenitors in extended gravity models.

String-inspired higher-order curvature terms influence black hole properties.

Potential implications for multiverse theories and cosmic evolution.

Abstract

Physics is facing contingency. Not only in facts but also in laws (the frontier becoming extremely narrow). Cosmic natural selection is a tantalizing idea to explain the apparently highly improbable structure of our Universe. In this brief note I will study the creation of Universes by black holes in -string inspired- higher order curvature gravity.
