It is shown how a metric structure can be induced in a simple way starting with a gauge structure and a preferred volume, by spontaneous symmetry breaking. A polynomial action, including coupling to matter, is constructed for the symmetric phase. It is argued that assuming a preferred volume, in the context of a metric theory, induces only a limited modification of the theory.

  1. Symmetry TFTs for Continuous Spacetime Symmetries

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Continuous spacetime symmetries can be encoded in a (d+1)-dimensional BF/Chern-Simons topological field theory, whose boundary reproduces symmetry generators, symmetry breaking, and anomalies.

  2. Thermodynamics of homogeneous Universes: de Sitter, Bonnor-Melvin and static Einstein

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Three homogeneous universes with distinct matter content obey the same thermodynamic equation for energy density, implying vanishing cosmological constant in vacuum.

  3. Quantum and Classical mechanics vs QFT

    physics.gen-ph 2026-02 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    Planck's constant is proposed as an emergent order parameter, making quantum mechanics the bridge between quantum field theory and classical mechanics.
