Abstract

Although we often speak of fundamental particles, those in the standard model lack a formal mathematical foundation. That is, the standard model of particle theory is empirically-founded but could benefit from a formal, causal basis for consistency with cosmology. This essay will explore the notion that such a mathematical foundation exists and discuss its ability to address known problems in fundamental physics.
