Superconducting and Antiferromagnetic Phases of Space-Time

Abstract

A correspondence between the SO5 theory of high-TC superconductivity and antiferromagnetism, put forward by Zhang and collaborators, and a theory of gravity arising from symmetry breaking of a SO5 gauge field is presented. A physical correspondence between the order parameters of the unified SC/AF theory and the generators of the gravitational gauge connection is conjectured. A preliminary identification of regions of geometry, in solutions of Einstein's equations describing charged-rotating black holes embedded in de Sitter space-time, with SC and AF phases is carried out. 2017 Deepak Vaid.
