Abstract
Modern particle physics and cosmology support the idea that a background of invisible material pervades the whole universe, and identify in the cosmic vacuum the ultimate source of matter-energy, both seen and unseen. Within the framework of the theory of fundamental relativistic membranes, we sugge st a self-consistent, vacuum-energy-driven mechanism for dark matter creati on through gauge symmetry rearrangement.
