G-Series: Geometry and Gravity
The G-series derives geometry, time, distance, and gravity as emergent representational structures from Cohesion Dynamics substrate mechanics without metric or field ansätze.
These papers show how geometric and gravitational structure emerge from closure accounting, propagation delays, and cohesion gradients.
What the G-Series Establishes
The G-series derives:
- Time as closure-cycle accumulation
- Distance from closure propagation delay
- Curvature from reconciliation consistency
- Gravitational attraction from closure gradients
All without assuming metric structure, spacetime manifolds, or field equations.
Papers
G1 — Emergent Time
Time as closure-cycle accumulation
Shows how time emerges as the accumulation of closure cycles in the substrate. Demonstrates that temporal order and duration arise from substrate mechanics without assuming a time coordinate.
Status: Draft
G2 — Emergent Distance
Distance from closure propagation delay
Derives distance as a measure of closure propagation delay between substrate regions. Shows how spatial separation emerges from the structure of substrate interactions.
Status: Draft
G3 — Emergent Geometry
Curvature from reconciliation consistency
Demonstrates how geometric structure and curvature arise from reconciliation consistency requirements. Shows that geometry is a derived feature of substrate behavior, not a primitive arena.
Status: Draft
G4 — Gravity from Cohesion Gradients
Gravitational attraction from closure gradients
Derives gravitational attraction as an effect of cohesion gradients in the substrate. Shows how gravity emerges from substrate mechanics without introducing gravitational field equations.
Status: Draft
Who Should Read This Series?
This series is for you if:
- You want to understand how spacetime structure emerges from substrate
- You are interested in quantum gravity or emergent geometry programmes
- You want to see how gravity can arise without metric ansätze
- You are comfortable with conceptual derivations
This series is not:
- A replacement for general relativity (GR is the effective theory)
- A complete quantum gravity theory (that requires further work)
- Concerned with field theory or gauge structure (that is future work)
