The shape of space-time and physical constants

[rgatess]

I am wondering if anyone knows of research being done, or theories that are related to the actual structure of space-time as they are related to physical constants such as the speed of light, Planck's constant, and the cosmological constant. I'm far from being a expert, but I've been playing around with some unusual geometrical related concepts for many years, and have found there are a family of interesting shapes (higher dimensional in nature) that, when formed into a manifold, actually very accurately yield these physical constants. (and even when extrapolated, predicts quite nicely the shape of electron orbitals!) I was at first quite excited by this discovery, but am guessing now that this is well known by those more highly trained in such things...

Any information on these topics would be greatly appreciated...

If you are interested in such correlations between constants and space-time; i suggest you take a look at Lie algebra of group E8, I've heard that there is a physicist trying to come up with a GUT with that model.

There is ongoing research and various theories related to the structure of space-time and how it relates to physical constants. One of the most well-known theories is Einstein's theory of general relativity, which describes space-time as a four-dimensional continuum that is curved by the presence of mass and energy. This theory has been extensively tested and has been shown to accurately predict the behavior of objects in space-time.

Other theories, such as string theory and loop quantum gravity, also suggest that space-time may have a more complex structure than previously thought. These theories propose that space-time may be made up of smaller, discrete units and that the physical constants may be a result of this underlying structure.

Your discovery of a family of shapes that accurately yield physical constants is certainly interesting and could potentially contribute to our understanding of the underlying structure of space-time. However, it is important to note that any new theories or concepts should be thoroughly tested and evaluated by experts in the field before they can be considered as valid explanations for the behavior of space-time and physical constants.

Overall, there is still much to be explored and understood about the relationship between space-time and physical constants. Continued research and collaboration among experts in the field will help to advance our understanding and potentially lead to new discoveries.
