Based on analysis of the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble Theory of Gravity's explanation of torsion as a result of particle spin, Poplawski suggests that when matter density reaches more than about 1050kilograms per cubic meter inside a black hole, torsion manifests itself as a force that counters gravity, and that, rather than forming a singularity, it quickly rebounds like a coiled spring to which pressure has been applied. Poplawski theorizes that this extraordinary level of torsion may account for what is observed as the current expansion of the spatially flat, homogeneous and isotropic universe, the prevailing explanation for which is known as cosmic inflation.[10][11][12] The rotation of a black hole would influence the spacetime inside it, resulting in a "preferred direction" within our universe, and therefore, Poplawski suggests that observable violations of Lorentz symmetry might provide evidence for his theory.[13] Neutrinos which have been observed oscillating from one type to another have been suggested as the occurrence of such a violation.
