The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v2. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

If physics at the Planck scale requires new conceptions of space-time, then generic renormalizable field theories predict observable violations of Lorentz invariance in the low energy sector. The little recognized ``Lorentz Fine Tuning Problem'' comes from logarithmic loop corrections which are not suppressed to the enormous extent commonly assumed. Fine-tuning of parameters at the Planck scale is one possible but unpalatable solution. Here we show that violation of Lorentz invariance is highly suppressed in a supersymmetric theory, the Wess-Zumino model. We conjecture that supersymmetry may be further motivated by yet another fine tuning problem of ordinary quantum field theories.

The paper
Original abstract

If physics at the Planck scale requires new conceptions of space-time, then generic renormalizable field theories predict observable violations of Lorentz invariance in the low energy sector. The little recognized ``Lorentz Fine Tuning Problem'' comes from logarithmic loop corrections which are not suppressed to the enormous extent commonly assumed. Fine-tuning of parameters at the Planck scale is one possible but unpalatable solution. Here we show that violation of Lorentz invariance is highly suppressed in a supersymmetric theory, the Wess-Zumino model. We conjecture that supersymmetry may be further motivated by yet another fine tuning problem of ordinary quantum field theories.
