Title: Emergent Gravity


1
Emergent Gravity?
  • Jack Sarfatti

Predictions
  • LHC will not find supersymmetry partners that
    will account for Omega DM 0.23
  • No local DM detectors will ever click with the
    Right Stuff
  • Looking for Dark Matter particles whizzing
    through space is like looking for Earths motion
    through the Galilean aether.

3
What is Dark Matter?
  • Dark matter is an exotic phase of quantum vacuum
    w lt -1/3 with negative vacuum energy and positive
    pressure on scales smaller than cosmological,
    e.g. 102 pc.
  • Dark matter mimics w 0 CDM.
  • Dark energy is also w lt -1/3 with positive vacuum
    energy and negative pressure on larger scales.

Physical Analogy
  • v (h/m)d(theta)
  • v superfluid velocity
  • v closed inexact 3D 1-form
  • theta 0-form generic Goldstone phase
  • G(incoherent)/H(coherent) S1
  • Circulation is quantized around vortices

5
Toy Model
  • ea 1a la 4 tetrad 1-forms
  • la curvature 1-form tetrad
  • la 0 in S-T region is globally flat
  • la is gauge potential from localizing T4
  • Planck inflation has 8 Goldstone phases? SBS
  • la (dthetaa)(phia) - thetaa(dphia)

6
Einsteins 1915 GR
  • ds2 (1a la)(Minkowski)ab(1b lb)
  • D d Wab/\
  • Dea dea Wab/\eb 0
  • Rab DWab Rabuvdxu/\dxv
  • DRab 0 Bianchi identity
  • Rab/\ec (Lambda)ea/\eb/\ec 0

7
  • Degenerate case of phase lock
  • thetaa theta phia phi
  • G/H -gt S2
  • dla -gt 2(dtheta)/\(dphi) / 0
  • la is not closed, but dla is closed but not
    exact if point defects in the vanishing Higgs
    vacuum order parameter where Goldstone phases
    are undefined.

8
  • Surface integral of dla around point defect is
    quantized. This resembles Bekenstein-Hawking
    quantization of area as the S2 2D analog to S1 1D
    quantization of circulation.
  • Since d2la 0 locally like B 0 locally in
    Bohm-Aharonov effect of magnetic field without
    magnetic field, we seem to have a holographic
    volume without volume number of area quanta.

9
8 Goldstone Phases
  • We expect 6 area 2-forms in 4D S-T not 1
  • dAab (dtheta)/\(dphi)a,b
  • (dtheta)a/\(dphi)b- (dtheta)b/\(dphi)a
  • dAaa 0
  • dAab dAabuvdxu/\dxv

10
  • dA dAabab
  • Integral of dA around closed 2D surfaces
    enclosing point defects in 3D space-like
    hypersurfaces quantized?
  • This is non-rigorous so far trying to get to
    world hologram volume without volume as a 2D
    Bohm-Aharonov effect where all geometrodynamic
    information is on surrounding surfaces of volumes
    with defects in the vacuum coherence.
