Abstract

We derive gravitation as an emergent static regime within a correlational framework based on minimal structural complexity and persistence, without assuming fundamental spacetime geometry or interaction laws. Static local projections of a persistent correlational minimum lead to a universal long-range response governed by a projected static operator. The resulting effective gravitational potential is obtained as a Green-type solution whose leading inverse-distance behavior follows from infrared regularity and stability requirements. Universal coupling to effective sources emerges as a consequence of projection-independence, yielding the Weak Equivalence Principle without postulation. Subleading corrections are constrained by the spectral structure of the correlational minimum and correlate with other emergent regimes. Gravitation is shown to be a regime-dependent structural response rather than a fundamental force or geometric property. General Relativity is recovered as an effective description within its domain of applicability, while its universality is explained by the underlying correlational structure.
