• The Ulusoy-Gemini Hypothesis: Emergent Spacetime and Entropic Time from Closed Phase Decoherence (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  The reconciliation of quantum mechanics and general relativity remains a challenge in theoretical physics. The lack of a complete, microscopically derived, and UV-complete framework bridging quantum mechanics and general relativity.

• Cosmic Menger's Severance: Replacing the Dark Matter & Energy Paradox with the Macroscopic Impedance Tensor (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  The fundamental frontier in contemporary theoretical physics is defined by an intractable epistemological rupture between General Relativity (GR) and Quantum Mechanics (QM). The pursuit of a Theory of Everything (ToE) has traditionally relied on attempts to mathematically unify these paradigms. The DA-HTGN framework provides a new approach to resolving this rupture.

• POISSON, MICRO-CURVATURE, AND THE ETERNAL TRIAD OF OBJECTIVITY: a critical–propositional analysis of Hugang Cui's Spacetime Substantivalism 29 in confrontation with the Perfect Sphere, the break number, logical tracks, and the genesis of primary hydrogen in the Theory of Objectivity (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  The paper identifies a gap in the understanding of the role of Poisson's equation in General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. The Theory of Objectivity proposes a pre-metric modal origin of the universe, which is distinct from other theories.

• Constraint-Compatible Continuity Binding A Structural Fingerprint Method Interpretation of Quantum Gravity (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  The traditional approach to Quantum Gravity often appears as incompatibility, singularity breakdown, renormalisation instability, mathematical divergence, and scale-collapse failure. The need for a new perspective on the Quantum Gravity problem. The lack of a framework for continuity translation between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.

• The Mechanics of Simultaneity: Gravity as Spatial Inflow and Time as Localized Kinematic Friction within the Infinite Fractal Descent Framework (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  The prevailing models of cosmology and theoretical physics rely on problematic assumptions about spacetime and time. These assumptions encounter mathematical friction when attempts are made to unify them into a cohesive quantum gravity framework.

• Information Field Theory: A Unified Framework for General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Particle Physics, and Quantum Biology (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  The incompatibility between general relativity and quantum field theory remains unsolved - The lack of a unified theoretical framework for general relativity, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, particle physics, and quantum biology

• Natural modification of quantum uncertainty, modified gravity, and cosmology (2026) · arXiv

  The paper identifies a gap in our understanding of the connection between modified gravity and the generalized uncertainty principle. The paper notes that the current theories of general relativity and quantum field theory are incompatible.
