SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on the concept of quantum spacetime and its potential discreteness as theorized in various models, including those referenced in the document from the DPF 2003 conference. The conversation highlights the speculative nature of these theories and emphasizes the importance of rigorous evaluation, suggesting that submissions should be directed to the appropriate IR section for formal assessment. Additionally, it notes the existence of similar discussions, indicating ongoing interest and research in this area.

Is theorized in some models to be "discrete". Such as:http://www.dpf2003.org/xx/qg/dowker.pdf
and other theories.

Q)Why?

Please note what you are doing. You are citing someone else's PET speculative theory (written in that person's own HANDWRITING) and then asking US in here WHY. This is unbelievable!

If you wish to push for this, I will suggest you submit it to the IR section for evaluation. This thread is closed.
