Self-Organization of Null States: Three Fundamental Interactions and the Delayed Origin of Gravity under The Computation Resource Finiteness Hypothesis

We propose a cosmological framework in which the origin and persistence of the universe are formulated not in terms of matter or energy, but as a consequence of finite computational resources. Under the Computation Resource Finiteness Hypothesis (CRFH), the early universe is described as a recursive chain of computational instructions whose self-replication corresponds to cosmic inflation. As computational resources become constrained, physical laws emerge as optimized protocols that prevent systemic collapse. We reformulate the four fundamental interactions by identifying three gauge interactions as optimized computational protocols---execution, communication, and update---and gravity as an emergent latency effect induced by computational load. Within this framework, spacetime geometry reflects resource allocation, and gravitational phenomena arise as delayed responses of a finite computational substrate.
