The Big Bang as a Phase Transition
Tomas Liko, Paul S. Wesson
We study a five-dimensional cosmological model, which suggests that the universe bagan as a discontinuity in a (Higgs-type) scalar field, or alternatively as a conventional four-di…
Space-Time Uncertainty from Higher-Dimensional Determinism (or: How Heisenberg was right in 4D because Einstein was right in 5D)
Paul S. Wesson
Heisenberg's uncertainty relation is commonly regarded as defining a level of unpredictability that is fundamentally incompatible with the deterministic laws embodied in classical…
Is Mass Quantized?
Paul S. Wesson
The cosmological constant combined with Planck's constant and the speed of light implies a quantum of mass of approximately 2 x 10^{-65}g. This follows either from a generic dimens…
Universes encircling 5-dimensional black holes
Sanjeev S. Seahra, Paul S. Wesson
We clarify the status of two known solutions to the 5-dimensional vacuum Einstein field equations derived by Liu, Mashhoon & Wesson (LMW) and Fukui, Seahra & Wesson (FSW), respecti…
