  ABSTRACT: Our idea for black holes, is using Torsion to form a cosmological constant. Planck sized black holes allow for a spin density term canceling Torsion. The formation of a cosmological constant is akin to use Torsion in order to obtain the cosmological constant, but in order to do so, we need a starting point as far as emergence of energy from the onset of the Big Bang. This paper is dedicated to that proposition, using Barbour shape formulation to obtain emergent energy values which are less disruptive to pre Planckian to Planckian physics than the usual paradigms. In particular, our emergent energy values are using Padmanabhan scalar field construction, combined with a modified HUP construction, which we then try to tie into black hole physics.
