Abstract

We present a rewiew and also new possible applications of pp-adic numbers to pre-spacetime physics. It is shown that instead of the extension RnQpnR^n\to Q_p^n, which is usually implied in pp-adic quantum field theory, it is possible to build a model based on the RnQpR^n\to Q_p, where p=n+2 extension and get rid of loop divergences. It is also shown that the concept of mass naturally arises in pp-adic models as inverse transition probability with a dimensional constant of proportionality.
