Gravity versus Quantum theory: Is electron really pointlike?

Abstract

Quantum theory claims that electron is pointlike and structureless. Contrary, the consistent with Gravity Kerr-Newman (KN) electron model displays an extended structure of the Compton size rc=/m.r_c=\hbar /m . We obtain that there is no real conflict between the extended Gravitating electron and a Quantum electron "dressed" by virtual particles. In the same time the KN model indicates new important details of the electron structure and sheds new light on some old puzzles of quantum theory. In particular, the KN Gravity predicts that electron forms a disklike vacuum bubble bounded by a closed string, which could probably be detected by the novel experiments. If it will be confirmed, it would be of primary importance for foundations of Quantum theory and unification of Quantum theory with Gravity.
