Curvature-Restored Gauge Invariance and Ultraviolet Naturalness

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

It is shown that, (aΛ2+b∣H∣2)R(a Λ^2 + b |H|^2)R in a spacetime of curvature RR is a natural ultraviolet (U ⁣V)(U\!V) completion of (aΛ4+bΛ2∣H∣2)(a Λ^4 + b Λ^2 |H|^2) in the flat-spacetime Standard Model (S ⁣M)(S\!M) with Higgs field HH, U ⁣VU\!V scale ΛΛ and loop factors aa, bb. This curvature completion rests on the fact that a ΛΛ-mass gauge theory in flat spacetime turns, on the cut-view R=4Λ2R = 4 Λ^2, into a massless gauge theory in curved spacetime. It provides a symmetry reason for curved spacetime, wherein gravity and matter are both low-energy effective phenomena. Gravity arises correctly if new physics exists with at least 63 more bosons than fermions, with no need to interact with the S ⁣MS\!M and with dark matter as a natural harbinger. It can source various cosmological, astrophysical and collider phenomena depending on its spectrum and couplings to the S ⁣MS\!M.
