Why does the Kerr-Newman black hole have the same gyromagnetic ratio as the electron? (2006.05392v1)
Abstract: We have recently proposed a deterministic matrix dynamics at the Planck scale, for gravity coupled to Dirac fermions, evolving in the so-called Connes time. By coarse-graining this dynamics over time intervals much larger than Planck time, we derived the space-time manifold, quantum theory, and classical general relativity, as low energy emergent approximations to the underlying matrix dynamics. In the present article, we show how to include Yang-Mills gauge fields in this Planck scale matrix dynamics. We do this by appropriately modifying the fundamental action for the previously introduced atom' of space-time-matter [which we now call an
aikyon']. This is achieved by modifying the Dirac operator to include a potential' for the Yang-Mills aspect, and a
current' for the Yang-Mills charge. Our work opens up an avenue for unification of gravity with gauge-fields and Dirac fermions. We show how spontaneous localisation in the matrix dynamics gives rise to general relativity coupled to gauge-fields and relativistic point particles, in the classical limit. We use this formalism to explain the remarkable fact that the Kerr-Newman black hole has the same value for the gyromagnetic ratio as that for a Dirac fermion, both being twice the classical value.
