Emergence of Geometry and a Gravitational Analogue from Variational Dissipative Conservative Dynamics
Abstract
This paper shows how classical transport dynamics arise naturally from the same variational dissipative–conservative framework that also supports quantum-analogue behaviour. In the transport-dominated regime, the oscillatory field reduces to Hamilton–Jacobi dynamics with well-defined trajectories and effective inertia, while coupling to auxiliary dissipative degrees of freedom suppresses interference and stabilises classical motion. No stochastic noise, no collapse postulates, and no hidden variables are introduced. Quantum, classical, and decoherent behaviour appear as distinct dynamical regimes of a single deterministic system, controlled by the balance between phase transport and amplitude curvature. Classical mechanics is recovered not as a foundational axiom, but as an effective description with a clear domain of validity.
