NP is in DTIME(n^{polylogn})? or not?

While I've been slicing chicken, my phone fetched today's arXiv posts in my topics of interests and I bumped into this. While it's not the "usual" P=NP stuff, I'm still quite sceptical..
..however, if it's correct, that has several serious impacts on complexity theory. And the author has several strong publications..

..worth a read. who knows.
