Dark Matter as Void Object: Opacity, Halo Constraint Architecture, and the Prohibition-Ritual Template at Cosmological Scale
Abstract
Applies the Void Framework to dark matter, demonstrating that halos formally satisfy all three void conditions: O=3 (electromagnetically dark by definition), R=2 (halos restructure during mergers and respond to baryonic feedback), C=3 (permanent gravitational binding). The prohibition-ritual pair maps onto halo structure: virial radius = prohibition, galaxy rotation curves = ritual. Empirical test: Spearman correlation between Pe_DM and satellite quenching fraction across ten galaxy halos and clusters, with predictions derivable from the framework's transport dynamics.
