We already have seen the dirac equation in one of the Death Stranding posters (picture below).
The longer equation behind the shorter one is the dirac equation
And in the last trailer (E3 2018) we see how those balck floaters swallow Norman Reedus in this black goo (first gif below). I think this black goo could be a dirac sea. I came to this thought after remebering a scene from the anime "Neon Genesis Evangelion" where a robot gets swallowed up by a dirac sea (second gif below). It is explicitly stated in the episode that this thing is a dirac sea. In the anime the dirac sea is a black 2D plane which stretches out on the ground and devours everthing on top of it. It looks similar to this black goo that devours Norman in the trailer. Biggest diffrence being the creatures that pull Norman into the goo and the fact that Death Strandings "dirac sea" looks like goo, and not like a 2D plane.
Norman getting swallowed by a dirac sea?
Evangelion Unit 01 getting swallowed up by a dirac sea.
In the anime they say this about the dirac sea: "It's six hundred eighty meters in diameter with a thickness of three nanometers. The ultra-thin space is supported by an inwardly-directed AT Field. The inside is an imaginary space, called a Sea of Dirac. I think it's probably connected to another universe." (AT Field is a made up word by the anime, we don't have to worry about that)

"Connected to another universe" is the intresting part. Kojima said that, in Death Stranding, something has stranded from another world. Maybe this something stranded through a dirac sea which is connected to another universe/world? We got the dirac equation in the offical posters, so why not dirac seas. They probably need the equation for research about the black floaters and how to battle them.
Please note that I have no idea how a dirac sea works in real life. My only knowledge from dirac seas comes from this anime. I tried to read a little bit about it online but it seems I have to take some quantum mechanics lessons to understand what they're writing about. I don't know if this is a faithful visualization of a dirac sea. I also don't know if Kojima wanted to make a faithul visualization of it.
I would love it we had someone here who understands dirac seas good enough to give a simple explanation about the seas, if that's possible.
Well, whaddya think?
