The KMS State of Space-Time at the Planck Scale

Considering the expected thermal equilibrium characterizing the physics at the Planck scale, it is here stated, for the first time, that, as a system, the space-time at the Planck scale must be considered as subject to the Kubo-Martin-Schwinger (KMS) condition. Consequently, in the interior of the KMS strip, i.e. from the scale ß = 0 to the scale ß = Planck, the fourth coordinate g44 must be considered as complex, the two real poles being ß = 0 and ß = Planck. This means that within the limits of the KMS strip, the Lorentzian and the Euclidean metric are in a "quantum superposition state" (or coupled), this entailing a "unification" (or coupling) between the topological (Euclidean) and the physical (Lorentzian) states of space-time.
