No, but it can in Dual Space theory. Here we begin with a universe of
e-p+ pairs, of which some electrons are taken out and accelerated to
the speed of light (our standard condition). This forms the particle
world-ours. The positrons left behind automatically form a mirror
image (that should be clear) in the form of an equal number of
antiparticles.
Our physical laws can only operate in the solid (Espace) where the
positrons exists, not in the dismal vacuum! Removing the electron half
of the pairs during the creationn weakens Espace, allowing the Navier
Stokes equation to take hold as shown in Eq. 1 of my paper at
http://www.dualspace.net.
I left out all the preliminary stuff to get right to the gravity part
in the paper, to tempt the neophyte who knew a bit about relativity
but was ready to quit, but I am beginning to see that even this
rudimentary approach is too much for most.

If you have something to say, write an equation.
If you have nothing to say, write an essay
