Abstract

The symmetrical character of empty space–time is proposed as a putative reason for mirror symmetry violations in the bioorganic world and in the world of elementary particles, and a new geometrical model for the empty space–time is put forward. In contrast to flat four-dimensional Minkowski space, this model is described by a cylindrical four-dimensional space metrics. The geodesic lines of this space are helical. The helical structure of the model proposed shows that distortion of mirror symmetry may be a consequence of geometrical structure of the empty space rather than a characteristic of any specific interaction.
