Spin-statistics-quantum number connection and supersymmetry

Abstract: The analogy between the Skyrme and Higgs field leads to the conjecture that all fermions are skyrmions and thus always carry conserved quantum numbers, which are identified with baryon or lepton quantum numbers. This connection between spin and quantum numbers, which parallels the connection between spin and statistics due to the Pauli principle, may explain why supersymmetry has not been observed. Creation of s-particles at higher than present energies due to a breakdown of the Skyrme mechanism might imply th… Show more

“…One may ask now whether the description can be extended beyond pure strong interactions in accordance with the above gauge groups. This question is of importance if also leptons are interpreted as solitons, see for example Weiner [120]. In this context one may consider the geometric models of matter of Atiyah, Manton, and Schroers [121], who describe electrons, protons, neutrinos, and neutrons with a method that has been inspired by Skyrme's baryon theory.…”
