Emergent Physics in CVFT
Abstract
Correlational Variational Field Theory (CVFT) proposes that physical reality is fundamentally a non-factorizable correlational domain whose dynamics arise from the extremization of a connectivity functional. In this work we develop the empirical sector ofCVFT, focusing exclusively on the effective geometric regime where observable physicsemerges.We show how spacetime, fields, interactions, and quantum behavior arise as structural manifestations of connectivity deviations from homogeneous equilibrium. GeneralRelativity appears as a macroscopic stability condition of the connectivity action, whilequantum field dynamics emerge from residual non-commutativity and spectral structureof the connectivity operator.This paper identifies concrete predictive avenues, structural constraints on effectivefield theories, and falsifiability criteria. The goal is not to introduce new ontology, butto extract empirical consequences from the established CVFT framework.
