General Discussion on the Reality of Fundamental Being Space (FBS)

Description Previous versionPrevious version of Paper 1: DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18220715Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18220715 This preprint is published as part of the author’s theoretical series, “Fundamental Being Space (FBS) Theory.” In this series, we introduce a working hypothesis in which the Fundamental Being Space (FBS), an interface layer Σ with effective thickness, and ordinary spacetime S_i form a layered structure. Here, Σ is not treated as a zero-thickness boundary or a purely formal interface, but as an intermediate layer with effective thickness through which the structure extends from FBS to the observable sector. The quantity Σ_L denotes this effective thickness, and the normal-direction structure of Σ plays a central role in the framework developed throughout the series. By examining this layered framework, we show that a consistent description can be formulated that connects with established physical theories, and we present the results step by step. Overview of Paper 1Paper 1 provides the conceptual map of the series. Rather than taking ordinary spacetime as fundamental, it introduces FBS and the interface layer Σ as falsifiable working hypotheses and outlines a three-layer perspective (FBS → Σ → spacetime). The paper organizes key open problems—including the extreme weakness of gravity, the universality and stability of the speed of light, the measurement problem in quantum theory, and the origins of time and mass—into a unified perspective based on interface conditions. It also clarifies how Papers 2–7 develop the framework (electromagnetism, gravitational hierarchy, stabilization of the speed of light, time generation, mass generation, and an experimental/engineering roadmap) and states explicit falsifiability criteria for the overall approach. What changed in this version• Redundant parts of the previous version were removed.• The paper was compressed from 8 pages to 4 pages.• Some wording in the in-paper comparative/list table was revised.• The overall presentation was streamlined while preserving the role of Paper 1 as the conceptual entry point to the series.

Series links (Paper 2–8) Paper 2 — “Geometric Origin of Electromagnetism from a Double-Helix Structure in the Interface Layer Σ”We derive an effective vector potential A from the geometry and phase difference of a double-helix structure in the interface layer Σ, and show that electromagnetism (E, B) and the Maxwell equations are recovered in the long-wavelength limit.Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18232305 Paper 3 — “Geometric Origin of Gravitational Weakness from Interface-Layer Filtering”We explain the weakness of gravity as a multi-stage filtering (attenuation) effect in the interface layer Σ, and organize a framework in which large hierarchy ratios (e.g., on the order of 10^-36) can emerge naturally.Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18240763 Paper 4 — “Stabilization of the Light-Speed Hierarchy Ci via Tachyonic Modes”We reinterpret “tachyon” not as a particle but as a mode (“tachyonic modes”), and clarify the framework from the viewpoint of stabilizing the light-speed hierarchy Ci and maintaining consistency with dispersion relations.Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18327252 Paper 5 — “Time Generation via Coherence in the Interface Layer Σ: A Coupled Constraint Between the Velocity Width ΔC and the Time Step ΔT”We treat time generation as a constraint/coherence phenomenon in the interface layer Σ, and discuss how observed quantities and the emergence of time follow from a coupled condition between the velocity width ΔC and the time step ΔT.Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18327479 Paper 6 — “Geometric Origin of Effective Mass from Double-Helix Structure and Phase Synchronization: A Defect Model in the Interface Layer Sigma”We propose that effective mass arises from localized defect-like structures formed by phase synchronization and geometric locking in a double-helix configuration of the interface layer Σ, and organize a framework in which mass is interpreted as an emergent property of stable localized states.Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18727897 Paper 7 — “An Experimental and Observational Roadmap for FBS Theory: Testable Predictions and a Minimal Σ-Lagrangian”We present a minimal Σ-Lagrangian and organize the experimental and observational roadmap of FBS theory, separating recovery conditions from prediction degrees of freedom and clarifying how testable spectral and correlation signatures can be used for falsifiability.Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/18908943 Paper 8 — “Minimal Conditions for the Interface Σ Derived from Tachyon Processing Conditions”examines tachyon-related conditions across representative existing theories and reorganizes them into a comparative framework. By comparing how such conditions appear, how they are handled, and what structures remain after the process, it extracts common patterns that can be read back toward the FBS framework. Through this reverse reading, the paper explores the minimal structural requirements of the interface layer Σ.Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/19647082 VersioningThis preprint may be updated in revised versions.
