Unified Chordal Resonance Theory (UCRT)

Authors: Jessica Bower
Comments: 17 Pages.

Unified Chordal Resonance Theory (UCRT) proposes that gravity, the Standard Model of particle physics, dark matter, dark energy, and cosmology all emerge from a single multitonal vibrational scalar field $ Psi_text{total} $ governed by one dominant nonlinear coupling $ lambda_text{nl} $. The ever-present baseline hum $ Psi_text{total},0 $ at near-Planck frequencies undergoes beat interference and resonance cascades, dynamically generating fermion mass hierarchies, gauge symmetries via rotations on a compact internal manifold ($ S^3 $), fuzzy black hole cores, hybrid dark matter halo profiles with exponential cores and subhalo suppression below $ sim 10^8 M_odot $, and late-time dark energy evolution from phase diffusion. UCRT resolves black hole singularities through diffusive cores, the missing satellites problem via destructive tone interference, and the matter-antimatter asymmetry through phase-driven CP violation, while remaining consistent with Planck CMB, DESI BAO, JWST ultra-faint dwarf observations, and precision flavor data. Quantum corrections via vibrino loops preserve unitarity, and RG flows reach an asymptotic safety fixed point for UV completeness. Near-term falsifiability is provided by amplified GW echo trains and sidebands (LISA), chiral low-$ ell $ B-modes (CMB-S4), hybrid DM cores/subhalo counts (JWST/LSST), $sim$10 TeV resonances (FCC), and phonon analog signatures in tabletop experiments.

Gravitational Sourcing from Decoherence History

Authors: Paul Dangelo
Comments: 6 Pages.

The paper proposes a novel experimental protocol to test a fundamental question at the intersection of quantum mechanics and general relativity: Does a quantum system's ability to generate (source) a gravitational field depend on its quantum state history—specifically, its accumulated decoherence?Standard semiclassical gravity assumes that a mass sources gravity based purely on its mass-energy expectation value, regardless of whether it is in a coherent quantum superposition or a classical mixture. This paper introduces an "Activation Hypothesis," suggesting that a system must build up irreversible entanglement with its environment (accumulated decoherence) to "activate" its gravitational sourcing capacity.

The Fibonacci-Tetrahedral Lattice: A Unified Geometric Origin for Dark Matter and Dark Energy

Authors: Andrew Ebanks
Comments: 11 Pages.

This paper proposes the Fibonacci-Tetrahedral Lattice (FTL), a discrete geometric substrate for the vacuum derived from an E8-to-3D projection. By treating space as a quasicrystalline packingrather than a smooth continuum, we identify a foundational ‘Information-Ontology’ where the 8D lattice serves as the geometric source and 3D reality is the projected result. We demonstrate that the transition from 8D symmetry to 3D packing necessitates a 7.356◦ topological deficit (the Aristotle Gap). This geometric frustration manifests macroscopically as an entropic pressure, providing a zero parameter resolution to galactic rotation curves ("Dark Matter") without requiring new particles.Furthermore, by applying Holographic Scaling (N2/3) to the lattice nodes, we resolve the "Vacuum Catastrophe," deriving an observed energy density of ≈ 10−27.33 kg/m3 (matching Λ) from the theoretical Planck baseline.

Tying the Universe Together: Quantum Balloon Interface Theory (QBIT)

Authors: Sean McCallum
Comments: 10 Pages. Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)

The vacuum is not an empty stage. It is a stretchy quantum balloon - a dynamical condensate of overlapping standing-wave fields - with every massive particle a permanent topological knot tied into its fabric. Gravity emerges as local strain, forces as the rubber trying to smooth itself, and the entire Standard Model arises from zero modes trapped inside these knots.

Beneath the balloon lies an eternal pre-geometric qubit substrate that never disappeared after the Big Bang condensation. A tiny, Planck-suppressed portal couples the substrate to the rubber, naturally feeding zero-point energy and producing a mild dynamical dark energy with predicted equation-of-state drift w_a approx +7.2 x 10^{-5}.

With only two fundamental parameters (f and e), the QBIT framework quantitatively reproduces:

• Nuclear binding energies across the entire periodic table to better than 0.08% accuracy (maximum relative error 0.079% at 28Si);
• Quark and lepton masses and mixing matrices (CKM and PMNS) at the percent level or better;
• The observed baryon asymmetry eta approx 6.1 x 10^{-10};
• A tiny positive cosmological constant rho_Lambda approx 1.02 x 10^{-120} rho_Planck;
• A natural first-principles resolution of the Hubble tension via modified early-universe expansion driven by the substrate condensation front.

Black-hole interiors are regular topological cores with no singularities, the information paradox is resolved by substrate-mediated leakage, and quantum paradoxes (double-slit, delayed-choice eraser, Hardy's, Zeno, Elitzur-Vaidman, Schrodinger's cat) receive natural resolutions via rubber ripples and topological protection.

Lattice simulations and analytic results confirm topological stability, emergent curvature, multi-knot binding, and the substrate portal's predictions. QBIT thus provides a conceptually elegant, quantitatively successful, and experimentally testable candidate for a unified theory of particles, gravity, and cosmology - all emerging from one stretchy quantum balloon and its eternal qubit substrate.

Dadatic Monism: An Ontological Reinterpretation of Mass-Energy Equivalence and GR-QFT Unification via Causal Data Emittance

Authors: Darcy Facundo
Comments: 01 Pages. "Presents a new informational ontology (Dadatic Monism) to unify General Relativity and Quantum Field Theory through a redefined mass-energy equivalence formula."

1. ABSTRACTThis essay proposes a resolution to the long-standing dichotomy between General Relativity (GR) and Quantum Field Theory (QFT) through the paradigm of Dadatic Monism. It postulates that the Universe is a real-time information processing system where matter is not an inert substance, but a Data Density Anomaly (Ψ) within an Informational Plenum. By formulating the equationED=γ⋅Ψ.Vif2, we establish a causal bridge between total system energy, the fundamental limit of data propagation, and metric coherence protocols (Lorentz). The theory concludes that physical reality and consciousness are emergent byproducts of distinct levels of transduction and attenuation of this universal data stream.2. THE FUNDAMENTAL DADATIC EQUATIONThe core of this theory lies in the redefinition of mass. In Dadatic Monism, mass is the measure of "informational load" at a specific logical address of spacetime.ED= γ⋅Ψ.Vif2ED (Dadatic Energy): The total processing magnitude or computational work contained within an event.Ψ (Radiant Data Mass): The volume of information packets defining the "presence" of a particle or body.Vif =(Propagation Velocity): The constant 3×108 m.por segundointerpreted as the maximum bandwidth of the vacuum (Plenum).(Propagation Velocity): The constant 3×108 m por segundointerpreted as the maximum bandwidth of the vacuum (Plenum).3. DYNAMICS AND THE LORENTZ PROTOCOLThe theory’s validity in non-static systems is ensured by the integration of the Lorentz Factor (γ). In our ontology, γ is not merely a geometric distortion but a Buffer Management Protocol.ED=γ⋅Ψ.Vif2As the velocity of data (v) approaches Vif, the system execute different reference frames.4. UNIFICATION AND TRANSDUCTIONGravity: Interpreted as the "processing lag" imposed by high data density (Ψ). Spacetime curves not due to a force, but to accommodate heavy informational loads within the logical metric.Quantum Mechanics: Entanglement serves as evidence that data is unitary and shared at the source code level, rendering physical distance irrelevant for state synchronization.Biology and Consciousness: The Cortex is postulated as a Quantum-Informational Transducer. The "reality" we experience is an attenuated version of the Plenum, filtered to be processable by biological hardware (Soma).5. CONCLUSIONDadatic Monism offers a "naked," demystified view of physics. It replaces the search for hypothetical particles with an understanding of the laws of emittance and processing. The Universe does not "exist" in a static sense; it is causally rendered at every Planck interval.KEYWORDS: Dadatic Monism; Information Physics; Theoretical Physics; Unification; Lorentz Factor; Biological Transduction.

Geometry and Spin Structure of the Single Oloid Manifold as the Origin of Leptonic Mass (Information-Geometric Physics System I)

Authors: Pruk Ninsook
Comments: 43 Pages.

This work presents the theoretical framework of the Information-Geometric Physics System (IGPS), which elucidates the emergence of fundamental properties in leptonic particles through the structure of the Oloid manifold [17]. Under the constraints of C2continuity and seam coupling enforced by S1 ⊥ S1 symmetry, the fundamental constituents of matter are modeled as "closed information nodes." In this framework, the spectral mass is derived as a curvature integral and a normal bundle holonomy manifesting along the manifold’s seam [13]. We prove that the moduli space of the seam under rigidity conditions yields an SO(3) symmetry group structure, naturally inducing a spin structure via the SU(2) double cover [18]. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the geometric stiffness parameterβ = 1/(√3π) emerges as a universal geometric invariant governing the internal strain scale [3]. These results suggest that the fermion mass spectrum is directly coupled to the topological structure of the informational manifold, providing a foundational basis for the extension into composite systems and strong interactions in subsequent work [9].

Multi-Seam Configuration and the Topological Scaling of Baryonic Mass (Information-Geometric Physics System II)

Authors: Pruk Ninsook
Comments: 25 Pages.

This research extends the scope of the Information-Geometric Physics System (IGPS) from single-node systems to composite nuclear structures via the Oloid Trinity Configuration, elucidating the topological origin of mass and the statistical properties of baryons [8, 9]. We introduce the Dimensional Jump phenomenon, representing an informational scale transition from planar scaling on the manifold’s seam to the sweep volume ofentangled folded manifolds. This transition results in the emergence of a universal geometricmultiplier G = 4 3π2, which systematically bridges leptonic mass to the nuclear mass scale.Under rigidity constraints and SU(3) symmetry, we prove that the extrinsic/interactionstrain is fixed at Δ = 2.5 through the 5/2 Theorem, enabling the master equation to predict the proton mass with 99.99% accuracy relative to CODATA standards [10]. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that Fermi-Dirac statistics and fractional spin 1/2 emerge directly from the preservation of C2 continuity on manifolds entangled through the SU(2)double-covering structure. Residual analysis confirms that manifest discrepancies align withthe order of radiative corrections in Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). These results confirmthat baryonic structure represents the most stable volumetric organization of information,effectively achieving structural closure for the origin of matter within the IGPS framework.

The Unification Achieved, How Quantum Gravity Had Already Been Solved

Authors: Bertrand Jarry
Comments: 8 Pages. Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC-BY 4.0) (Note by ai.viXra.org Admin: Please cite listed scientific references)

For a century, physicists have sought to unify general relativity and quantum mechanics. We show that this quest rests on a fundamental conceptual error: gravity never needed to be "quantized" because it is already a quantum phenomenon emerging from the vacuum. By recognizing the quantum vacuum as the fundamental substrate, unification becomes trivial. All forces, including gravity and relativity, are manifestations of the same quantum vacuum. The problem was not to find a theory of quantum gravity, but to recognize that it already existed.

Gravity as Osmotic Depression of the Quantum Vacuum,a Unified Theory of Relativity and Quantum Physics

Authors: Bertrand Jarry
Comments: 8 Pages. Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC-BY 4.0) (Note by ai.viXra.org Admin: Please cite listed scientific references)

We propose a radically new conceptual framework for understanding gravity and relativity, not as geometric curvatures of spacetime, but as physical modifications of the quantum vacuum. Gravity results from a static osmotic depression, while special relativity emerges from the dynamic compression of the vacuum by motion. This approach naturally resolves the problem of unification with quantum mechanics and makes experimentally testable predictions. Unlike attempts to "quantize geometry" (strings, loops), our theory recognizes that gravity and relativity are already quantum phenomena in nature, emerging from the properties of the vacuum.

Unified Theory of the Quantum Vacuum Gravity, Relativity and Quantum Mechanics

Authors: Bertrand Jarry
Comments: 15 Pages. Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC-BY 4.0) (Note by ai.viXra.org Admin: Please cite and list scientific references)

This theory unifies gravity, special relativity, general relativity, and quantum mechanics by recognizing the quantum vacuum as the single fundamental substrate. Gravity emerges as a static osmotic depression of the vacuum, special relativity as a dynamic compression, and all forces as manifestations of the same vacuum. This unification is not achieved through the quantization of geometry, but through the recognition that gravity was already quantum.

Recursive Spacetime: A Research Programme for a Holographic Graph-Theoretic Framework

Authors: Ammar Alammar
Comments: 8 Pages. Creative Commons License

We propose a background-independent research programme modelling the universe as a dynamic,recursive causal network evolving from a single root vertex. By treating spacetime not as afundamental container but as an emergent property of a stochastic directed acyclic graph (DAG),we demonstrate that foliation invariance (a necessary condition for Lorentz symmetry) and three-dimensional spatial geometry can emerge as statistical limits of graph topology governed by random walk recurrence (Polya’s Theorem) and the Principle of Maximum Entropy. We formally derive the Einstein-Hilbert action in the thermodynamic limit of the graph’s microstate statistics, identifying the cosmological constant with unimodular volume fluctuations (Λ ∼ V −1/2). Furthermore, we identify fundamental particles as stable topological subgraphs (braids) protected by Pachner move invariance, and derive the Holographic Area Law from the Max-Flow Min-Cut theorem. This model offers a unified generative grammar for emergent gravitation and quantum interference, yielding a precise, falsifiable prediction for high-energy Lorentz violation, consistent with effective field theory expectations in discrete models.

Unified Reconstruction of Cosmology Via Spacetime Hysteresis and Gravitational Entanglement [ Updated 2]

Authors: Chang-Sik Kim
Comments: 7 Pages. Copyright © 2026 Chang-Sik Kim. All rights reserved.

Wepropose a scalar-tensor theory of gravity by redefining spacetime as a physical viscoelastic medium. Addressing the anomalies of the ΛCDMmodel—specifically the Hubble Tension and the early formation of massive galaxies observed by JWST—we introduce a constitutive relation, Kim’sLaw (E = κψ). This law postulates that the gravitational potential arises from the topological entanglement density (ψ) of the spacetime lattice. By constructing a Lagrangian density with an elastic potential term,we derive modified Einstein Field Equations. We explicitly demonstrate that the "missing mass" in galactic rotation curves is a manifestationof vacuum rigidity (Kµν) rather than non-baryonic Dark Matter. Furthermore, we incorporate an energy dissipation term (hysteresis) into the Friedmann equations, deriving a recalibrated cosmic age of 16.54 Gyr.This extended timeline resolves the conflict between standard cosmology and the existence of mature galaxies at z > 10.

Gravitational Lensing and the Bullet Cluster via Spacetime Creep and Stress Relaxation

Authors: Chang-Sik Kim
Comments: 3 Pages.

The Bullet Cluster (1E 0657-56) is widely regarded as the most direct empirical evidence for particulate Dark Matter, due to the observed separation between the gravitational lensingcenter and the baryonic gas. In this third and final paper of the series, we demonstratethat this phenomenon can be explained within the Spacetime Elastic Hysteresis The ory without invoking non-baryonic particles. We introduce the mechanism of "Spacetime Creep," where the macroscopic entanglement strain (ψ) exhibits a delayed relaxation response to the rapid deceleration of baryonic matter. Our analysis shows that the viscoelastic stress relaxation time (τrelax) allows the gravitational potential peak to disassociate from the collisional gas, naturally reproducing the lensing anomalies observed in galaxy cluster collisions.

Modular Cells for Quantification

Authors: Alaya Kouki
Comments: 44 Pages.

From Restraint Relativity it is possible to consider a corpuscle as a packet of strings. The variation of the length of this packet is equal to the phase speed of the corpuscle as a packet of waves times an universal constant. In a system of units where ℏ=c=a=1 the string vector becomes equal to the wave vector.From quantum mechanics we had deduce that a Planck oscillator can emit or absorb power only by quanta of power multiple integer of hν^2. This allows us to divide space-time in modular cells of action, momentum, energyu2026etc in the phase space geometry of the oscillator and resolve the problem of vacuum energy density. Planck system of units serves only for black holes topology.Space-time is a four open dimensions. More than four the dimension should be curled. Resolving gravitation field by computer machine with model using modular cells will be without singularities . Einstein equations of gravitational field are available only in a quasi static asymptotically flat Universe. Constants G & Λ of General Relativity are proportional to the inverse square of the Universe radius.

Emergent Quantum Mechanics, Special Relativity, Induced Gravity, Dirac Fermions and U(1) Gauge Interactions from Discrete Hypercubic SpacetimeLattice

Authors: Bertrand Jarry
Comments: 7 Pages. Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC-BY 4.0) (Note by ai.viXra.org Admin: Please cite listed scientific references)

We present a complete bottom-up derivation of non-relativistic quantum me-chanics, special relativity, induced gravity (Sakharov mechanism), Dirac fermions, and U(1) gauge interactions from nearest-neighbor unitary evolution on a 4D hy-percubic lattice. The Schrödinger equation emerges exactly in the continuum limit, with higher-order Lorentz-violating corrections. We rigorously prove the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, quantum superposition, entanglement, and probability conser-vation as direct consequences of the discrete structure. Detailed calculations includeTaylor expansions to order 10, Fourier dispersion to k10, exact commutator[x, p], variance,norm conservation to order 8, 1016 GeV, is compatible with the latest LHAASO constraints on GRB 221009A(2025—2026). This work forms the foundation for emergent SU(2)×SU(3), Higgs,cosmology, and quantum gravity in subsequent papers.

The Fractal Planck Voxel Model: A Geometric Unification of General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, the Standard Model, and Consciousness

Authors: Benjamin R. Carignan
Comments: 59 Pages.

In 1899, Max Planck introduced the fundamental constants that now bear his name, combining the gravitational constant G, the speed of light c, and the reduced Planck's constant ħ to define natural units of length, time, and mass. The Planck length and Planck mass emerged as the scales at which quantum effects of gravity should become dominant — a transition zone where classical general relativity (GR) and quantum mechanics (QM) intersect. Planck himself viewed these units as theoretical curiosities, unaware that they hinted at a discrete structure underlying spacetime. We propose that spacetime at the Planck scale is composed of a grid — a lattice — of rhombic dodecahedral voxels with fractal boundaries. The unique properties of this shape impart it with the specific qualities and characteristics of the observed universe through emergent geometric rules. Through this single geometric structure, the Fractal Planck Voxel model (FPV) fully realizes the transition zone that Planck’s work hinted at over 125 years ago. The FPV model derives general relativity, quantum mechanics, the Standard Model gauge groups, three generations, particle masses, and mixing angles, all from voxel symmetry and triangular modes on rhombic faces, with the cosmological constant serving as the energy of fractal subdivision. The model also addresses numerous longstanding problems and questions in physics — from the collapse of the wave function to neutrino masses, dark matter, dark energy, the origin of the Higgs, and more. The fact that the FPV model does all of this while remaining consistent with all current observations — without additional fields, particles, dimensions, or fine-tuned parameters — lends strong credence to its validity as a unifying theory.

Framework of a Unified Effective Field Theory for Gravity Based on Atomic-Scale Quantum Entanglement Networks

Authors: Yunsheng Shu, Shun Yao, Zhiyong Yao
Comments: 54 Pages.

This paper proposes a unified effective field theory (EFT) framework for gravity based on atomic-scale quantum entanglement networks. In this framework, the gravitational field of any object—universal gravitation—arises from the superposition of micro-gravity domains (ffGD) at the atomic level, with the strength of gravity precisely related to the total number of atoms, thereby unifying macroscopic phenomena with microscopic interpretations (the superposition of micro-gravity domains (ffGD) at the atomic level forms a gradient material field, and the gradient material field constitutes the geodesic of matter (planets)). Einstein’s theory of curved spacetime serves as an equivalent description at large scales, enabling the model to explain all classical gravitational effects while linking quantum origins to observable reality in an intuitive and engaging way: gravity can be imagined not as abstract curvature, but as the collective "pull" produced when atomic quantum threads are interwoven into the structure of space. The core of the framework is a topology-constrained effective field theory, which uses the emergent distance induced by mutual information and the Fisher information metric as the interface from discrete entanglement networks to continuous geometry, and has constrainable low-energy parameterization (e.g., ffff, ffff, cff, Λff). This paper emphasizes the paradigm of "falsifiability first", integrating strong-field endpoints (such as the effective reflection model of Planck entanglement nucleus boundary conditions) with weak-field, cosmological, and multi-messenger observations into a multi-channel decision matrix, systematically converting "non-detection" results into upper bounds on parameter space.
