Abstract

This theorem proves that independent dark matter and dark energy sectors are structurally inadmissible in closed classical gravity. Any proposed dark sector either introduces forbidden intrinsic structure or collapses to an admissible gravitational degree of freedom, in which case it is not independent. The result is regime-independent and does not rely on phenomenology, particles, or model fitting.
