CONNECTIONS IN PHYSICS: SPACETIME, DARK MATTER, AND BEYOND
 
 

In this colloquium, the speaker will present a single thread that connects much of the theoretical framework of Physics, from the fundamental commutator of Heisenberg to wave particle duality of de Broglie, to Dirac and Maxwell's equations, and beyond to Elko Mass Dimension One Fermions (as dark matter candidates). Then, if time permits, he will make a brief case as to what may happen to causality in the early quantum-gravity epoch of the universe with the possibility that brain itself may be a quantum gravity device.
