Might as well throw my own ideas out:
1. Near the surface of a black hole, spacial dimensions become time-like, and the time dimension becomes space-like. If our universe started as a singularity, then our time dimension may be the squashed higher spacial dimension of some higher order universe.
2. Black holes supposedly can have electric charge. If the space around a black hole is distorted as described in 1., the electric charge would appear to the rest of the universe as a magnetic monopole. Black holes are magnetic monopoles.
- drdeca 10y agoErr, a black hole having an electric charge and spinning would, I think, produce a magnetic field, but it would m not be a monopole. It would be a magnetic dipole, like an electron.
- snarfy 10y agoThis is the accepted belief. I'm considering a more basic model of a static, non spinning but electrically charged black hole. It's really an electromagnetic field not two separate fields, and it seems the gravity would warp the electromagnetic field back around so that from our reference frame we see a magnetic not electric charge aka monopole.
