Could the math 'shape' of the universe solve the cosmological constant problem?
SMRTR summary
Physicists at Brown University may have solved one of science's biggest puzzles — why the universe isn't expanding infinitely fast. Using a quantum gravity framework, they discovered the cosmological constant is "topologically protected," meaning space-time's mathematical shape naturally locks its value, preventing the catastrophic infinite expansion quantum theory predicts.
