Relaxation-Driven Cyclic Cosmology (RDCC) — Consolidated Core Framework & Manifest

Title:Relaxation-Driven Cyclic Cosmology (RDCC) — Consolidated Core Framework & Manifest Description: This record presents a consolidated structural synthesis of the Relaxation-Driven Cyclic Cosmology (RDCC) framework, unifying the conceptual, mathematical, and interpretative elements developed across RDCC versions v0 through v1.24. RDCC is formulated as a minimal cosmological framework, not as a competing phenomenological fit to ΛCDM. Its primary aim is to clarify the structural conditions under which time orientation, entropy growth, dark phenomena, and observer perspective can emerge within a globally CPT-symmetric spacetime. The framework strictly distinguishes between global structure and sectoral physics, avoiding the introduction of global time, global entropy, or global dynamical evolution. This consolidated document introduces no new physical assumptions, fields, dynamics, or observational claims. Instead, it reorganizes and refines previously released material into a coherent, readable core framework and manifesto, intended to: provide conceptual clarity, prevent misinterpretation arising from isolated version reading, document the finalized structural position of RDCC. All quantitative explorations, phenomenological fits, and exploratory extensions remain documented in the individual RDCC version records. This record serves as a reference synthesis for readers seeking an integrated understanding of the RDCC framework. Status:Conceptual and structural framework.Interpretative in nature; not a predictive cosmological model.
