Abstract

We propose that the Randall–Sundrum warped extra dimension with Z₂ orbifold symmetry, interpreted as a literal resonant cavity at depth kL ≈ 37, constitutes a complete account of fundamental physics. From this single geometric parameter, we derive: the Standard Model particle spectrum and mass hierarchy; charge quantization and color confinement; the force hierarchy; the dark matter ratio; the dark energy density; the Hubble tension; the vacuum energy; the uncertainty principle; the quantum-classical transition; quantum entanglement; the black hole information paradox; the arrow of time; the matter–antimatter asymmetry; the strong CP problem; and the conditions for cyclic cosmology. The framework introduces no new particles, no new fields, and no free parameters beyond kL. Dark matter is a cross-brane gravitational amplification artifact. Dark energy is a calibration drift artifact. Black holes, quantum uncertainty, and dark matter halos are unified as three densities of a single phenomenon: the information hole—cross-brane information unavailability in warped geometry. The universe is modeled as a ziploc bag simultaneously zipping and unzipping. Both apparent endpoints—full opening and full closure—converge: the rip causes the zip and the zip accelerates the zip. We compile forty-three falsifiable predictions, five of which are kill shots. This article presents the complete framework as a single narrative, from the initial state before the Big Bang to the possible endpoints of cosmological evolution.
