Uniqueness of Strand Unification
A unified theory of nature and of physics must be unique
The latest preprint on the strand tangle model is due to the comment of an anonymous reviewer of a previous paper. If a theory of nature is unified, it also must be unique. Exploring the issue let to this text:
The text argues that the strand tangle model is indeed the only possible approach that unified general relativity and the standard model of particle physics with massive neutrinos.
The text summarizes how strands follow from nature’s limits for speed, action, entropy, and force. It is summarized how the two present theories arise. In almost all arguments, it it worked out that alternative constituents, alternative numbers of dimensions, alternative descriptions of quantum effects and wave functions, alternative gauge groups, alternative elementary particles, alternative Feynman vertices, alternative values of the constants of nature, alternative theories of gravitation, and alternative Lagrangians contradict nature’s limits.
But the text also shows that strands allow estimating particle masses, possibly the first such derivation from first principles.
Furthermore, the text also shows that only filiform constituents derive the principle of least action, again possibly for the first time.
Thus, only strands deduce general relativity and the standard model with massive neutrinos, and only strands solve the mass hierarchy problem - all this while agreeing with all observations.
Also for the first time, strands appeal to describe all observations, all laws, and all of nature, with full precision, using a single principle:
