The Scalar Geometric Field as the Primary Structure of Physical Reality

AbstractWe introduce the scalar geometric field as the primary physical structure emerging within theuniversal collapse framework. Rather than treating spacetime, matter, or gravity as fundamentalentities, this approach identifies geometry itself as the first organized manifestation of collapsedifferentiation. The scalar field encodes internal geometric variation and serves as the substratefrom which temporal structure, matter distribution, and gravitational effects arise. This workestablishes the scalar geometric field as the unifying physical layer connecting ontology andobservable dynamics.
