Abstract

Specific, falsifiable predictions for the dark energy equation of state w(z) derived from one axiom with zero free parameters. The equation w(z) = -1 + (2/3) f_growth(z) a(z) produces w_0 = -0.647 at z = 0, within 0.46 sigma of DESI DR1 (w_0 = -0.55 +/- 0.21). LCDM (w = -1) sits 2.14 sigma from DESI. The coefficient 2/3 is derived as the ratio of the Born rule cross-term coefficient (2) to the Friedmann spatial pairwise count R(3) = 3. Predictions at 10 redshift values from z = 0 to z = 2.0 are placed on record before DESI DR2. The framework predicts a unique testable relationship: (1+w) must track (2/3) x f_growth x a at all redshifts. No other theory in physics predicts this specific correlation between dark energy evolution and the growth rate. Filed as a timestamped prediction.
