| dc.description | We investigate the consequences of two assumptions for String (or M) Theory, namely that: 1) all coordinates are compact and bound by the horizon of observation, 2) the ``dynamics'' of compactification is determined by the ``second law of thermodynamics'', i.e. the principle of entropy. We discuss how this leads to a phenomenologically consistent scenario for our world, both at the elementary particle's and at the cosmological level, without any fine tuning or further ``ad hoc'' constraint. | |
