| Well, there have been theories that derive the Fine Structure Constant from first principles, even though the theories they are based upon are not mainstream. Specifically, I am thinking of Laurent Nottale's Scale Relativity. Below is a 1992 paper... |
| I would say yes. Look up "rulial multiway graph" and you will see that there is a structure that does all rules on each step. Half of the rules would be to go "back" one step while the other half go "forward" a step, so not only is the present... |
| I may be way out of my league here, but remember the postulated scale of a link in the hypergraph is around 10^-93m. In the early universe (not just the observable universe) it was dominated by particles (an electron about 10^-81m as per S.... |
| Scale relativity and fractal space-time may give you the answer you are looking for. Basically distances and the smoothness of space depends upon what scale you are looking at, specifically in a fractal-like space. https://arxiv.org/abs/0812.3857... |
| Not to be obtuse, but in physical space there is no point in space, that is a human construct. Space is nothing but a relation between objects (or more accurately events). When we humans define a point in space we are making a lot of assumptions. ... |
| If you are interested in another definition of fundamental particles as braiding of space, I suggest looking into Sundance Bilson-Thompson's work. Just a few of his works are listed below. [Emergent Braided Matter of Quantum Geometry][1] ... |
| In the introduction literature of this web site it defines a black hole as a portion of a graph that splits off from the rest of the graph, thus being disconnected and unreachable any more by the graph. This seams to disagree with other physical... |
