Abstract

We present a complete geometric-algebraic framework that simultaneously explains three fundamental mysteries of the Standard Model: the origin of exactly three fermion generations, the spin structure of the proton, and the mechanismof quark confinement. The theory is built upon twistor space T C4 endowed with three orthogonal complex structures 𝐼, 𝐽, 𝐾 and an additional operator 𝐿. Geometric quantization of this structure yields precisely 48 fermionic degrees of freedom (3 generations Γ— 16), with quantum numbers arising as eigenvalues of the algebraic operators. The sameoperators appear in the gravitational sector as 𝑇 π‘Ž = Í𝛼 𝛽𝛼𝑂 𝛼 𝐹 ( 𝛼) ∧ π‘’π‘Ž, identifying gauge field strengths with spacetime torsion. This identity leads to confining torsion flux tubes, naturally reproducing the Nambu-Goto string action and linear potentials. Explicit construction of baryons as torsional knots yields accurate masses, radii, and – crucially – predicts that torsion carries Δ𝑇 β‰ˆ 0.25 of the proton’s spin, resolving the "spin crisis". The framework is renormalizable via an ultraviolet fixed point and makes testable predictions for the Electron-Ion Collider and LHC.
