Description
We show how our Universe can emerge from symmetry breaking in a W_3 algebra whose components form a Jordan algebra. The underlying one-dimensional spaces with different flavors, or components, are knitted into a higher-dimensional spacetime through a knitting mechanism, with three-dimensional space emerging as part of this structure. Algebraically, the knitting mechanism is characterized by the emergence of Virasoro constraints, whose solutions give rise to the higher-dimensional space.
