Mechanical Extension of GR: Spacetime as a Medium of Conservative Degrees of Freedom
Abstract
This paper presents a theoretical frameworkthat extends General Relativity by treating thespacetime manifold not merely as a geometric stage,but as a physical continuum governed by internaldegrees of freedom. Byidentifying a fundamental coupling constant, sym-bolized herein as a0, we provide a physical sub-strate for the curvature described by gμν , offeringan alternative to the paradigm.
