abstract
Several refinements are made in a theory which starts with a Planck-scale statistical picture and ends with supersymmetry and a coupling of fundamental fermions and bosons to SO(N) gauge fields. In particular, more satisfactory treatments are given for (1) the transformation from the initial Euclidean form of the path integral for fermionic fields to the usual Lorentzian form, (2) the corresponding transformation for bosonic fields (which is much less straightforward), (3) the transformation from an initial primitive supersymmetry to the final standard form (containing, e.g., scalar sfermions and their auxiliary fields), (4) the initial statistical picture, and (5) the transformation to an action which is invariant under general coordinate transformations.
