The MIND Framework: An Integrative Geometric Approach to Cosmic Dynamics

The MIND (Momentum in Inertial/Non-Inertial Dynamics) Framework proposes an integrative geometric approach to cosmic dynamics in which spacetime responds not only to mass–energy density, but also to organized momentum density. The framework introduces a universal coherence function that governs the nonlinear coupling between momentum flow and spacetime geometry, allowing a single physical principle to operate consistently across galactic, black-hole, and cosmological scales. Within this approach, phenomena traditionally attributed to dark matter, dark energy, and spacetime singularities are reinterpreted as emergent geometric regimes arising from momentum–geometry coherence. Flat galaxy rotation curves, black-hole horizon structure and jets, and late-time cosmic acceleration are shown to correspond to sub-threshold, threshold, and super-threshold momentum regimes, respectively, without invoking additional substances or exotic fields. The MIND framework does not replace General Relativity, but extends its geometric interpretation by incorporating momentum-driven torsional response as an effective spacetime behavior. Crucially, the theory is explicitly falsifiable, providing concrete predictions testable with current and near-future observations, including SPARC galaxy surveys, Event Horizon Telescope measurements, gravitational-wave ringdown signals, and large-scale structure probes. This work presents a unified synthesis of the MIND framework, clarifying its physical motivation, mathematical structure, empirical grounding, and observational consequences, and offering a coherent scaffold for further theoretical development and experimental validation.
