Resolving the Five Fundamental Paradoxes of Modern Physics through Zwanenburg Dynamics (Z.I.P.P.E.D.)
Abstract
This work presents a causal and finite resolution to five of the most persistent paradoxes in modern physics using the Z.I.P.P.E.D. framework (Zwanenburg Inverse Proportionality Principle of Equilibrium Dynamics). While contemporary physical theories succeed within limited regimes, they encounter conceptual and mathematical breakdowns at singularities, in the arrow of time, in quantum non-locality, and in the unexplained constancy of fundamental constants.Z.I.P.P.E.D. reframes spacetime not as a pre-existing background, but as the emergent result of an irreversible informational process referred to as the Cosmic Unzip. Within this framework, time is defined as a causal gradient of informational unfolding, the speed of light emerges as the elastic saturation limit of spacetime, mass appears as localized resistance to unfolding, gravity arises from delta interference, and black holes are described as regions of maximal informational compression rather than physical singularities.By eliminating mathematical infinities and replacing abstract postulates with physically motivated informational dynamics, this theory provides a closed, internally consistent extension to relativistic spacetime and quantum foundations, offering a unified conceptual basis for time, gravity, and information conservation.Keywords / HashtagsZIPPED Theory; Zwanenburg Dynamics; emergent time; informational physics; quantum gravity; spacetime elasticity; black holes; information conservation; foundations of physics; theoretical physics#ZIPPEDTheory #ZwanenburgDynamics #EmergentTime #InformationPhysics #QuantumGravity #Spacetime #BlackHoles #FoundationsOfPhysics #TheoreticalPhysics
