SR–SE: An Information-Theoretic Framework for Phase Stability, Fundamental Constants, and Emergent Gravity

This paper introduces the SR-SE (Saturation of Reality Structural Entropy) framework, a theoretical model where physical reality emerges from the saturation of fundamental informational degrees of freedom. We interpret the transition from quantum to classical states, specific fundamental constants, and large-scale gravitational features as stability conditions that arise near a universal informational threshold linked to the Landauer limit. Key Framework Highlights: Algorithmic Unification: The framework introduces a modified Master Equation where standard Schrödinger dynamics receive a stabilizing nonlinear contribution as informational saturation is approached. Fundamental Constants: We provide a parameter-free geometric interpretation of the fine-structure constant based on critical informational density and a dimensionless stability factor. Cosmology: Dark energy is interpreted as the physical energy cost required to maintain spacetime as a stable informational archive. The model predicts a dark energy density of approximately 0.685, which is consistent with observations from the Planck mission. Falsifiability: The SR-SE framework is experimentally testable, suggesting specific signatures that could be observed in Rubidium/Cesium (Rb/Cs) interferometry and mesoscopic interactions within a vacuum. This theory offers a minimal and internally coherent approach to understanding how quantum stability and cosmological parameters emerge from a single principle of informational saturation.
