We re-examine the non Hermitian position coordinate of Dirac's equation, in the light of his own insights and conclude that this, and the Dirac equation itself is symptomatic of an underlying Noncommutative Geometry.
We argue that a non commutative geometry at the Compton scale is at the root of mass, Quantum Mechanical spin and QCD and electromagnetic interactions. It also leads to a reconciliation of linearized General Relativity and Quantum Theory.
For m^2 < a^2 + q^2, with m, a, and q respectively the source mass, angular momentum per unit mass, and electric charge, the Kerr--Newman (KN) solution of Einstein's equation reduces to a naked singularity of circular shape, enclosing a…
