Z.I.P.P.E.D.: A Geometric Field Theory of Spatiotemporal Equilibrium and Galactic Dynamics
Abstract
Formal Abstract & Description Title: The ZIPPED Framework: Geometric Origins of Mass Hierarchies and Galactic Kinematics Description: > This white paper presents the consolidated ZIPPED theory, a revolutionary alternative to current particle-based cosmology. By introducing a \mathbb{Q}(\phi)-lattice, the document demonstrates that fundamental mass scales are emergent, stable fixed points of spacetime geometry. Grounded in the strict invariance of the speed of light (c) and supported by a rigorous Hessian stability analysis, ZIPPED eliminates the requirement for hypothetical dark matter particles (WIMPs or axions). The framework interprets gravitational anomalies as geometric resonances inherent to the lattice structure. The paper concludes with a quantitative falsification matrix for the ultra-diffuse galaxy NGC 1052–DF2, providing a direct, empirical test to confirm or refute the theory’s validity through astrophysical observation.
