Scientists have finally figured out a way to connect the dots between the macroscopic and the microscopic worlds. Their magical equation might provide us answers to questions like why black holes don't collapse and how quantum gravity works.
Edit: The paper is total nonsense. Sorry for wasting people’s time.
The math here is beyond me, but this statement from the paper seems contradictory:
The obtained equation is covariant in space–time and invariant with respect to any Planck scale. Therefore, the constants of the universe can be reduced to only two quantities: Planck length and Planck time.
Planck time is derived from the speed of light and the gravitational constant. So wouldn’t there be at least four universal constants?
If a constant is defined by another constant, without a variable between, wouldn’t it be fair to simplify that into a single constant? Additionally, based solely on the article, it almost sounds like they’re inverting that, saying that Planck time and Planck length determine the speed of light and gravitational constant(?).
