    The time at the subplanckian scale

    With the theory of special relativity, time has been linked with space into a four-dimensional space-time from which a basic question must be asked: can space be really transformed into time and vice-versa? The response is affirmative if time has the same structural topological structure as space at the subplanckian quantum level in such a way that a discrete structural quantum time constitutes the time part of the space-time internal vacuum of every elementary particle. It has thus been shown that a quantum time, quantized algebraically according to a lattice of time quanta, really exists and is emergent in the sense that time quanta can be transformed into space quanta and vice-versa. Furthermore,this quantum time, only relevant at the subplanckian scale, is proved to be in one-to-one correspondence with the absolute and relative clock times.Comment: 8 page

    Brane and string field structure of elementary particles

    The two quantizations of QFT,as well as the attempt of unifying it with general relativity,lead us to consider that the internal structure of an elementary fermion must be twofold and composed of three embedded internal (bi)structures which are vacuum and mass (physical) bosonic fields decomposing into packets of pairs of strings behaving like harmonic oscillators characterized by integers mu corresponding to normal modes at mu (algebraic) quanta.Comment: 50 page
