I posted the following to sci.physics.research, responding to the
above heading. It was hurled back at me slightly singed by The
Mod there as too speculative ....
"In fact, one can speculate, as I've done for some time, that the
ultra-relativistic conditions near a black hole greatly relax the
asymmetry between the 10 (or 11) dimensions of M/string theory,
opening them up on a 'equal' basis in that local space-time.
In such a case, the Planck length Lpl may then increase dramat-
ically.
Since Lpl is likely to be the fundamental lower length scale in
most mainstream scenarios (eg: LQG and M theory), all higher
spatial measures of quanta would balloon up proportionately.
To make this more concrete, let the Planck mass Mpl,
= (hbar*C/G)^.5 ,
and the grav'l constant G BOTH be truly constant in all space-time,
so we don't get too flabby here. This then requires local hbar and
C to vary exactly and indirectly, where
hbar ~ 1/ C ."
Then, with the Planck length Lpl defined as
= (hbar*G / C^3)^.5 ,
and local C in a high grav'l potential phi decreases because
C = Co (1 + phi / Co^2) .
In this conjecture this causes Lpl to blow up to macroscopic size,
on the order of one kilometer at the horizon of the BH. ALL quanta
dimensions would also have this as a lower bound. Needless to
say, my speculation becomes fast and loose here, but it is hard
to resist wondering what this would mean for all infalling quanta.
Some results of mine suggest that this constitutes a kind of
blowout allowing new space-time and quanta to form on the 'other
side' of the BH, a kind of white hole, allowing a baby universe to
form and expand in some sense perpendicular to our space-time."
