Description
In the chaotic quantization approach one replaces the Gaussian white
noise of the Parisi-Wu approach of stochastic quantization by a
deterministic chaotic process on a very small scale. We consider
suitable coupled chaotic noise processes as generated by Tchebyscheff
maps, and show that the vacuum energy of these models is minimized for
coupling constants that coincide with running standard model couplings
at energy scales given by the known fermion and boson masses. Chaotic
quantization thus allows to predict fundamental constants of nature from
first principles. At the same time, it provides a natural framework to
understand the dynamical origin of vacuum energy in our universe.
