Abstract

For half a century, physics has been paralyzed by the “Parametric Plague”—a reliance on arbitrary constantsto describe a fractured reality. We present Hydrodynamic Quantum Cosmology (HQC), a comprehensiveontology that resolves the crises of the Standard Model and ΛCDM by returning to first principles. Weposit that spacetime is a discrete computational lattice (Kn ≈ 10−62) behaving as a high-Reynolds-numbersuperfluid (Re ≈ 1036). This framework unifies General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics as laminarand turbulent flow regimes, identifies matter as topological vortex knots, and redefines the Dark Sector ashydrodynamic drag and surface tension. HQC offers a zero-parameter, material foundation for the universe,shifting the paradigm from abstract geometry to physical hydrodynamics.
