My QM is undergrad level and I don't keep up on recent breakthroughs. I'm curious what the status is on space structure.
This article (Mecklenburg, 2011) uses the phrase "hidden substructure"
http://prl.aps.org/abstract/PRL/v106/i11/e116803
is it similar to Zurek, 2001? "structure on the sub-planck scale"
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v412/n6848/abs/412712a0.html
Q:
do these articles a) give evidence for discretized space, and b) point to implications of discretized space for decoherence?
