Spacetime Wave Quantum (SWQ) Theory: A New Foundational Framework Beyond Interpretational Debate

Abstract

Standard quantum mechanics requires six independent axioms of the Copenhagen interpretation, all formulated in a non-relativistic framework lacking Lorentz invariance and thus fundamentally inconsistent with Minkowski spacetime. This paper argues that the measurement problem, wave-function collapse, Schrödinger's cat, and the non-locality of entanglement share a common root: non-relativistic quantum mechanics is an approximation of a more fundamental theory, and interpretations built upon an approximation cannot be fully correct. We propose Spacetime Wave Quantum Theory (SWQ theory), which takes Minkowski spacetime as its sole geometric premise and proceeds from two axioms: Axiom 1 (Quantum nature): A quantum exists in spacetime with finite extent and behaves as a wave whose action changes only in discrete multiples of h. Axiom 2 (Superposition principle): Superposition on multiple paths holds if and only if no difference arises in the state of external quanta between those paths — a purely physical condition with no role for observer consciousness. From these two axioms, the Klein–Gordon and Dirac equations are derived directly, with the Schrödinger equation recovered as their non-relativistic limit. The six Copenhagen axioms are replaced by two. Central concept — the Spacetime Action Packet (SAP): Every quantum occupies a finite four-dimensional spacetime region. For energy E, the temporal thickness satisfies Δt ≳ h/E. The SAP has a minimum size but no upper bound; quantum interactions are described as overlap integrals over the spacetime volume where two SAPs coincide. A key consequence is that different quanta — including three quarks inside a nucleon and neutrinos traversing the Earth — can occupy the same spacetime region without restriction; the Pauli exclusion principle applies only to identical fermions in identical states. Principal results of v2.0: Wave-function collapse is dissolved as the physical end and beginning of a quantum wave (wave-terminating interaction); the projection postulate is unnecessary. Feynman spacetime integration and virtual particles acquire a natural physical basis; finite SAP size provides an intrinsic UV cutoff without renormalization. Zero-point energy (ħω/2) is diagnosed as an artifact of operator ordering in quantization — not a physical entity — rendering the cosmological constant problem a structural consequence of summing a quantity that was never real. A first-order extension to a-ECG curved spacetime shows that gravitational redshift, gravitational mass deficit, and the increase in SAP temporal thickness all scale as √A(r), unifying classical and quantum descriptions of energy conservation under gravity. These results are supported by quantitative tests obtained without renormalization: the electron anomalous magnetic moment ae = α/2π (1-loop) and 2-loop coefficient C4 to 0.0015%; the Compton cross-section to within 0.07% of the Klein–Nishina formula; and nucleon magnetic moments to ∼1.5%. Details appear in the series papers on the Rotating Spinor Wave (RSW) model. Series context: SWQ theory forms the foundational framework for the RSW model (unified description of fermion spin, g-factors, and hadron mass spectra) and the Energy-Conserving Gravity theory (a-ECG, a modification of general relativity incorporating full energy-momentum conservation). These three papers constitute an interconnected series. Note: Generative AI tools (Claude Sonnet 4.6, Anthropic; Grok, xAI) were used for drafting and language checking.

Quantum Time - Wavefunction Collapse as the Origin of Spacetime and the Standard Model

Samuel Matthew Zygielbaum

See changelog below. The full derivations are provided in the attached paper. Every result is reproducible from the stated inputs. This paper derives the complete Standard Model, quantum mechanics, spacetime, and gravity — 85 quantitative results at sub-percent precision spanning 15 orders of magnitude — from a single postulate, four structural principles, and one measurement. The Standard Model has seventeen free parameters. General relativity has no quantum theory. The measurement problem has been open for a century. The cosmological constant is wrong by 120 orders of magnitude. The question of why there is something rather than nothing has no physical answer in any existing framework. Each of these failures shares a common omission: none ask where time comes from. This paper takes that question seriously. A single physical principle — information cannot be destroyed — is self-sealing: its own violation is incoherent. Its formal expression is Postulate I: each foreclosed quantum branch produces exactly one chronon — a massless spin-1 gauge boson of U(1)_T, the unique gauge group forced by the complex ray structure of the Hilbert space and the single scalar collapse charge. We call it the chronon. Time is not the background in which physics happens; it is generated by physics, irreversibly, at every collapse. These requirements yield a single Lagrangian, ℒ_QT, that extends the Standard Model by one massless spin-1 field and one coupling constant. From this — combined with one measurement, Newton’s gravitational constant G — we derive: all of quantum mechanics via the Piron–Soler–Gleason chain (not assumed); the complete Standard Model with all dimensionless parameters determined; the complete resolution of the measurement problem, including the environmental decoherence cascade; and 85 quantitative physical results spanning fifteen orders of magnitude in energy. Three spatial dimensions follow from the channel-matching principle (D = N_c) and the Weinberg angle consistency condition (N_c = 3). The Big Bang was not initiated — it was mandatory. The numerical precision is sharp. The worst result where the theoretical prediction exceeds experimental precision is 0.5%. For the majority of results, the framework’s prediction is already more precise than the measurement. The proton-to-electron mass ratio m_p/m_e = 2N_cπ⁵(1 + α²/√(N_c²−1)) agrees to sub-ppb precision. The proton charge radius matches muonic hydrogen to five significant figures. The Higgs boson mass to 0.002% via the full cascade derivation (0.25% from the explicit formula). The W boson mass to 0.001%. The fine structure constant to 0.026% (1/α = 137 exactly at tree level). The cosmological constant — wrong by 120 orders of magnitude in standard QFT — is derived to 0.03%. The Hubble tension, a 5σ discrepancy unresolved in standard cosmology, follows from the same structure: H₀_local = H₀ × 13/12 = 73.0 km/s/Mpc (0.05%). All four PMNS neutrino mixing parameters, previously unexplained, are derived to sub-0.5%. Sub-percent agreement spans from neutrino mass splittings at ~9 meV to the CMB temperature at 2.725 K — fifteen orders of magnitude from a single dimensionful input. The framework makes ten falsifiable predictions currently under test: an electron electric dipole moment of exactly zero (ACME III is live); a spin-1 gravitational wave breathing mode at ~9% of the + polarisation amplitude (testable with LIGO O4/O5 data); no dark matter particle in any direct-detection experiment; no graviton — gravity is geometric drift in a proper-time gradient sourced by the energy-momentum tensor, not exchange of a spin-2 particle; there is nothing to detect. A confirmed non-zero electron EDM or a detected graviton falsifies the framework immediately. The logical order, from bottom to top: information cannot be destroyed → P-I (one chronon per foreclosed branch) → proposition lattice with axioms P0–P4 → Piron–Soler–Gleason chain → complex Hilbert space → ray phase redundancy → single scalar collapse charge → U(1)_T gauge field with Maxwell dynamics → channel-matching principle gives D = N_c → Weinberg angle selects N_c = 3 → D = 3 → adding G through the Planck cascade gives λ_conf = 0.40092 fm → the complete Standard Model follows. Spacetime, quantum mechanics, and the Standard Model are not independent inputs — they follow as consequences of P-I, the structural principles, and one observational consistency condition. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ v86 Changelog (April 7–8 2026) — All numerical results unchanged from v85.

Framework premise expanded from "one postulate" to "one postulate, four structural principles, and one measurement." Front matter aligned with body throughout.

CP phase δ (§9.8.2): Replaced "axial-to-spherical flux ratio" with V−A vertex structure. The ratio 4/π is universal across all generation spaces because any unitary rotation lies on a great circle of S². W boson mass corrections (§9.5.1): Both NLO terms fully derived. Direct vertex α_s/(8π): C_F cancelled by non-relativistic reduction. Exchange α_s/(12π²): two vertices × Dirac-to-colour projection ratio.

Systematic correction — QCD dressing factor: The coefficient 1/(2π) appearing in ~10 results was previously attributed to "hemisphere projection geometry." Replaced throughout: mass in the chronon framework is a U(1)_T vector gauge coupling, not a scalar Yukawa coupling. The factor 1/2 confirmed by two independent routes: (i) Dirac algebra (γ^α γ^μ γ_α = −2γ^μ vs scalar = 4); (ii) C_F cancellation by non-relativistic reduction.

The Physical Meaning of 𝒎𝟎𝒄𝟐 and an Observational Reconstruction of Relativity and Quantum Theory Real and Measurement Spacetime, OONP, and the Phase–Action Bridge in NNRT

Eizo Nakaza

This paper begins with a question concerning the physical meaning of 𝑚0𝑐2 as it appears in the relativistic energy relation 𝐸2 = 𝑝2𝑐2 + 𝑚02𝑐4. The numerical relations 𝐸 = 𝑚0𝑐2 and 𝐸 = 𝛥𝑚𝑐2 are supported by precise experiments, but the ontology to which these mathematical quantities are assigned is a separate issue. This question leads directly to a reconsideration of the standard relativistic picture in which the relativistic time and relativistic length introduced by Einstein in 1905, and later geometrized as spacetime after Minkowski, are attributed to the physical world itself. The same issue appears in quantum theory. The relativistic energy–momentum relation connects to relativistic quantum-wave structures and, in the nonrelativistic regime, to Schrödinger mechanics; however, it does not follow uniquely from the mathematics that the wave function, probability, and uncertainty must be interpreted as properties of reality itself. The present paper identifies a common root of these two problems in the identification of mathematically observed quantities with reality itself. The Nakaza New Relativity Theory (NNRT) places an invariant real spacetime, consisting of universal time and universal space, as its physical basis. It does not, however, assume an absolute rest frame or an ether, and it regards all inertial frames as physically equivalent. In contrast, time, distance, phase, frequency, wavenumber, arrival time, and related quantities constructed through actual measurement are separated as quantities of measurement spacetime. The logical boundary between observational agreement and ontological identification is formulated here as the Observational–Ontological Non-Uniqueness Proposition (OONP). Taking the phase–action correspondence 𝛩 = 𝑆⁄ℏ, 𝑘𝜇(𝛩) = 𝜕𝜇𝛩, and 𝑃𝜇(𝛷) = ℏ𝑘𝜇(𝛩) as a common bridge, the dispersion structure of a single Fourier mode is organized as relativistic observation, whereas the superposition of multiple modes and Fourier duality are organized as quantum observation. In this framework, 𝛥𝑥𝛥𝑝 ≥ ℏ⁄2 is first interpreted as a bandwidth–localization constraint of a phasebased observational representation, while the Born rule, Hilbert space, and unitary evolution are retained as standard quantum mathematics in the quantum-observational layer. Furthermore, 𝑚0𝑐2 is reconstructed as the phase-invariant base scale 𝐵𝛷 = ℏ√𝜔2 − 𝑐2𝑘2 = 𝑚0𝑐2. What this paper changes is neither established mathematics nor experimental values. NNRT explicitly rejects the physical definition according to which relativistic time, relativistic length, and relativistic spacetime are properties of real time and real space themselves. It therefore proposes that these concepts be removed from the foundational description of real spacetime and be confined to the mathematics of measurement and observation.

Theory of Space: An Energy-Dependent Dimensional Framework for Quantum, Relativistic, and Gravitational Phenomena

Jose Oreste Mazzini

Abstract Quantum mechanics and relativity are extraordinarily successful mathematical theories, yet their conventional physical interpretations rely on substantially different conceptual frameworks. The Theory of Space (TS) proposes a fourth dimension defined by the Planck-related interval, with interpreted as a longitudinal dimension associated with energy (cτ), rather than as the conventional Minkowski spacetime interval. This fourth dimension does not coexist continuously with the observable three spatial dimensions as a conventional four-dimensional manifold. Instead, TS proposes an oscillatory existence between observable 3D presence and a non-observable fourth-dimensional phase. Through this oscillation, the quantum system undergoes repeated dimensional projection into observable 3D, with individual eigenstates manifested probabilistically while the underlying quantum state continues to evolve. Within this framework, phenomena including measurement, the Born rule, the arrow of time, entropy, entanglement, tunneling, and Bell-type correlations acquire a common physical interpretation. Heisenberg uncertainty and non-commutativity are interpreted as consequences of physical parameters associated with different phases of the dimensional oscillation and therefore not simultaneously manifested within the same 3D instance. TS further distinguishes between the quantum system’s spatial component and its compact physical entity. Their coexistence within the complete system provides a proposed physical basis for quantum interference and phase-dependent phenomena, including the double-slit experiment and the path-integral description of quantum evolution. As an extension of the model, TS proposes that the periodic displacement and replacement of quantum space generate a pulsed inward spatial flow. This mechanism provides a possible basis for a quantized gravitational interaction and suggests that gravitational energy may be represented by a positive contribution. Related developments, including spiral spatial flows, follow naturally from the same dimensional-oscillation mechanism. The Theory of Space therefore seeks to provide a common conceptual framework for quantum, relativistic, and gravitational phenomena without replacing the established mathematical equations that successfully reproduce experimental observations. The present work develops this framework and invites critical examination of its assumptions, physical implications, and potential experimental consequences.

Expanding Research Paradigms and Reconciling the Two Binary Oppositions: Exploring the Unified Path of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics

Runsheng Tu

By expanding the research paradigm and reconciling the two binary oppositions of "relative and absolute" and "quantum and classical" in physics, a new theoretical framework that is compatible with relativity and quantum mechanics is proposed. Firstly, excavate and establish three universal axioms: Axiom 1 (consensus guarantees equal rights), Axiom 2 (objective existence independent of measurement), and Axiom 3 (universality of causality and dialectical logic), based on which to criticize the logical contradictions of existing theories. In the field of relativity, this article points out that there is a logical paradox in the explanation of "clock slowing down depends on relative motion" in special relativity (A clock is both faster and slower than B clock), and proposes a relative absolute spacetime view that "absolute motion leads to clock slowing down". By extending the Lorentz transformation, absolute motion and relative motion are unified, solving problems such as the twin paradox. At the same time, based on the prediction of the Dirac equation for negative mass matter, the "negative mass spacetime curvature paradox" is proposed, challenging Einstein's physical explanation of spacetime curvature and arguing that it is only a mathematical tool (the mathematical expression of gravity) rather than a physical reality. In the field of quantum mechanics, this article criticizes the Copenhagen interpretation for violating Axiom 2 (denying the independent eigenstates of microscopic particles). By modifying the Schrödinger equation twice (For the first time, electromagnetic potential energy was replaced with gravitational potential energy, and the Schrödinger-Tu equation was established to describe macroscopic objects such as the Earth's revolution; The second step is to convert potential energy into electromagnetic/gravitational force and derive the wave mechanics equation of classical mechanics laws, such as Newton's second law with force operator), proves that quantum and classical theories are compatible within the same mathematical framework. In the experiment, it was demonstrated through the "anti-interference electron diffraction experiment" that a strong magnetic field only changes the shape of diffraction fringes without causing them to disappear, denying the inevitability of quantum decoherence. The establishment of "generalized wave dynamics" and "relative absolute spacetime view" breaks the binary opposition of traditional theories and provides a new paradigm for the unity of relativity and quantum mechanics. The core value of these jobs lies in: In terms of theoretical innovation, reconstruct the space-time and quantum interpretation system, while retaining the original mathematical form system; In terms of experimental verification, design feasible schemes such as hollow glass disk Jones experiment and geometric optical velocimetry experiment; In terms of philosophical significance, replacing "mathematical symmetry" with "content unity" and returning to the objectivity of physical mechanisms. The research conclusion indicates that by expanding paradigms and axiomatic constraints, the contradiction between relativity and quantum mechanics can be transformed into a complementary relationship, laying the foundation for the great unity of physics theory

Fundamental Field Theory: The Ontological Foundation of Quantum Mechanics A Unified Physical Framework · Physics (Quantum Branch)

Q Zhao

The mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics has achieved tremendous success, yet its ontological foundations — including the essence of the wave function, the mechanism behind the measurement problem, and the origin of nonlocal correlations — have long remained unresolved. This paper proposes the fundamental field theory, which takes the complex field \Psi as the basic degree of freedom satisfying the standard bosonic commutation relation [\hat{\Psi}, \hat{\Psi}^\dagger] = \delta. Starting from this commutation relation, we derive the uncertainty principle and establish the action of the fundamental field. The Schrödinger equation is obtained under the non-relativistic limit. We explain the measurement problem and present the dynamical equation for wave function collapse via the trigger perturbation mechanism. Meanwhile, quantum entanglement is interpreted based on the nonlocal nature of the fundamental field. This paper also conducts a comparative analysis between the proposed model, the GRW model and the Penrose model, and puts forward four experimentally testable theoretical predictions. This manuscript serves as a companion to the classical branch focusing on S³ topological dynamics. The two papers jointly form a full theoretical description of physical systems. The S³ topological domain manuscript focuses on classical and semiclassical topics such as cosmology, gravitational waves and power laws of the four fundamental interactions, while this work centers on quantum mechanics fundamentals, measurement collapse and quantum entanglement. The two manuscripts are interconnected through the \Psi-\lambda mapping. The fundamental field theory does not negate quantum mechanics; instead, it complements quantum mechanics with a complete ontological foundation.

From UD Theory to Quantum Mechanics: The Spinor Projection

Dan Zhu

This work derives the fundamental framework of quantum mechanics intrinsically from the first-principle axioms of UD duality theory. Starting from the inherent binary expansive–condensative attributes of the UD ontology, four fundamental physical fields are naturally decomposed by spontaneous symmetry breaking across spatial and material existential domains. A two-component complex spinor structure is uniquely constructed, and the imaginary unit i is proven to be not merely a mathematical convention but a structurally necessary ingredient required by both the compact SU(2) symmetry and the orthogonal inter-containment of U and D attributes. Within the flat spacetime limit of the UD gravitational action, a system of coupled Klein–Gordon field equations is established, governed by a single self-consistent fundamental mass scale m₀=1/(2πe^π) with no adjustable free parameters. The coupling constant is determined analytically from the UD vacuum equilibrium background values and the U↔D duality symmetry. Through explicit construction of four-component Dirac spinors and auxiliary field decomposition, the on-shell equivalence between the UD coupled field equations and the free Dirac equation is rigorously demonstrated. The non-relativistic limit further recovers the Pauli equation and the Schrödinger equation sequentially, reconstructing the core dynamical equations of quantum mechanics from a unified foundational origin. Global U(1) phase invariance of the UD action is verified via total-derivative decomposition, yielding the standard Noether conserved current. The Born probability interpretation is deduced directly from the global normalization axiom by isolating localized laboratory-scale excitations from the cosmic background, eliminating the need for independent quantum postulates. Based on the intrinsic properties of the UD field components, a self-consistent ontological interpretation is provided for wave–particle duality, double-slit interference, and the quantum measurement problem. In this framework, the measurement problem is dissolved rather than solved: no collapse postulate is required, and determinism is restored at the ontological level. The theory naturally implies that the continuous D_U field permits quantum superposition, while condensed D_D intrinsic entities possess definite classicality without physical particle-state superposition. Three testable theoretical predictions are presented, establishing falsifiable physical consequences of the UD quantum formulation. This paper completes the intrinsic derivation of the foundational structure of quantum mechanics from UD theory. Together with the previously derived general relativity framework, it realizes the homologous unification of gravity and quantum mechanics within a single self-contained axiomatic system.

D = N_c derived from information-balance between spatial export channels and internal confinement channels via mismatch functional. Replaces prior mutual-reinforcement argument. §1.5.1: Epistemic taxonomy added classifying all 85 results into three tiers: theorem-level (Piron, Soler, Gleason), physical-argument (gauge structure, mass formulas), and observational-consistency (N_c = 3 from Weinberg angle, cascade from G). §12: New section — Structural Analysis. Result classification (5 epistemic tiers, ~12 independent core results, compression ratio 85:19), axiom necessity (what breaks without each of P0–P4 and D1–D4), and ablation tests (N_c = 2, N_c = 4, drop P4, change coupling exponent, allow D ≠ N_c — every perturbation destroys the majority of results). Framework premise expanded from "one postulate" to "one postulate, four structural principles, and one measurement." Front matter aligned with body throughout. One derivation story, no internal contradictions. Derivation upgrades: Proton-to-electron mass ratio (§9.3): Replaced "2 spin states × N_c colours" with rigorous hyperspherical decomposition. S³ forced by massless emission in (3+1)D; S⁵ forced by K=0 ground state of 3-quark system in 6D relative coordinates. Neutral pion mass (§9.9.1): Factor 5 now derived as 2N_c − 1. Denominator 2π identified as one-loop coefficient of U(1)_T vector gauge coupling. Neutron-proton mass difference (§9.3.2): Replaced "circular loop + straight line" with flux tube arm derivation. π from SU(2) isospin rotation; +1 from chromoelectric flux tube arm to Y-junction. CP phase δ (§9.8.2): Replaced "axial-to-spherical flux ratio" with V−A vertex structure. The ratio 4/π is universal across all generation spaces because any unitary rotation lies on a great circle of S². W boson mass corrections (§9.5.1): Both NLO terms fully derived. Direct vertex α_s/(8π): C_F cancelled by non-relativistic reduction. Exchange α_s/(12π²): two vertices × Dirac-to-colour projection ratio. Charm mass (§9.13.4): Factor 4/π identified as axial-to-vector coupling ratio through V−A weak vertex. Systematic correction — QCD dressing factor: The coefficient 1/(2π) appearing in ~10 results was previously attributed to "hemisphere projection geometry." Replaced throughout: mass in the chronon framework is a U(1)_T vector gauge coupling, not a scalar Yukawa coupling. The factor 1/2 confirmed by two independent routes: (i) Dirac algebra (γ^α γ^μ γ_α = −2γ^μ vs scalar = 4); (ii) C_F cancellation by non-relativistic reduction. Label correction: CKM geometric factor (§9.8.1): "four-dimensional solid angle" corrected to "three-dimensional solid angle S² = 4π." Numbers unchanged. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ v85 Changelog (April 6 2026) — Electroweak corrections, |V_cb| prediction, consistency audit Four physics improvements and a comprehensive numerical audit, all from first principles with zero free parameters. Top quark mass (0.41% → 0.06%): The electroweak self-energy correction factor changed from (N_c+1) to (N_c−1). The factor (N_c−1) = 2 counts the charged weak boson states (W⁺, W⁻) mediating the t→b→t self-energy loop — the SU(2)_L charge-raising/lowering generators. m_t = 172,803 MeV vs observed 172,700 MeV. CKM θ₂₃ / |V_cb| prediction (1.3% → 0.3%): The framework predicts |V_cb| = 42.1 × 10⁻³, essentially identical to the PDG inclusive determination (42.2 ± 0.5) × 10⁻³ and inconsistent with the exclusive determination (39.8 ± 0.6) × 10⁻³. The inclusive/exclusive |V_cb| tension is one of the open questions in flavour physics; the framework picks a side. Falsifiable prediction. Baryon asymmetry η (0.5% → <0.1%): The sphaleron efficiency κ correction changed from α_s/(2π²) to α/(2π). The sphaleron is an SU(2)_L electroweak process; its one-loop vertex correction uses the QED coupling α/(2π), not the QCD coupling. Neutrino mass splitting Δm²₂₃ (0.3% → 0.08%): QED vacuum polarization correction −α/(2π) added to G₃ alongside the existing QCD correction +α_s/π. Sign pattern (QCD adds, QED subtracts) matches the W boson mass derivation. Numerical audit (22 corrections): Full line-by-line verification of every formula, table entry, agreement claim, and cross-reference. Corrections include: D/H value (2.62→2.58 × 10⁻⁵, 1.3σ→1.8σ — stale from pre-κ η); He-4 agreement (0.5σ→0.7σ); z_
This paper begins with a question concerning the physical meaning of 𝑚0𝑐2 as it appears in the relativistic energy relation 𝐸2 = 𝑝2𝑐2 + 𝑚02𝑐4. The numerical relations 𝐸 = 𝑚0𝑐2 and 𝐸 = 𝛥𝑚𝑐2 are supported by precise experiments, but the ontology to which these mathematical quantities are assigned is a separate issue. This question leads directly to a reconsideration of the standard relativistic picture in which the relativistic time and relativistic length introduced by Einstein in 1905, and later geometrized as spacetime after Minkowski, are attributed to the physical world itself. The same issue appears in quantum theory. The relativistic energy–momentum relation connects to relativistic quantum-wave structures and, in the nonrelativistic regime, to Schrödinger mechanics; however, it does not follow uniquely from the mathematics that the wave function, probability, and uncertainty must be interpreted as properties of reality itself. The present paper identifies a common root of these two problems in the identification of mathematically observed quantities with reality itself. The Nakaza New Relativity Theory (NNRT) places an invariant real spacetime, consisting of universal time and universal space, as its physical basis. It does not, however, assume an absolute rest frame or an ether, and it regards all inertial frames as physically equivalent. In contrast, time, distance, phase, frequency, wavenumber, arrival time, and related quantities constructed through actual measurement are separated as quantities of measurement spacetime. The logical boundary between observational agreement and ontological identification is formulated here as the Observational–Ontological Non-Uniqueness Proposition (OONP). Taking the phase–action correspondence 𝛩 = 𝑆⁄ℏ, 𝑘𝜇(𝛩) = 𝜕𝜇𝛩, and 𝑃𝜇(𝛷) = ℏ𝑘𝜇(𝛩) as a common bridge, the dispersion structure of a single Fourier mode is organized as relativistic observation, whereas the superposition of multiple modes and Fourier duality are organized as quantum observation. In this framework, 𝛥𝑥𝛥𝑝 ≥ ℏ⁄2 is first interpreted as a bandwidth–localization constraint of a phasebased observational representation, while the Born rule, Hilbert space, and unitary evolution are retained as standard quantum mathematics in the quantum-observational layer. Furthermore, 𝑚0𝑐2 is reconstructed as the phase-invariant base scale 𝐵𝛷 = ℏ√𝜔2 − 𝑐2𝑘2 = 𝑚0𝑐2. What this paper changes is neither established mathematics nor experimental values. NNRT explicitly rejects the physical definition according to which relativistic time, relativistic length, and relativistic spacetime are properties of real time and real space themselves. It therefore proposes that these concepts be removed from the foundational description of real spacetime and be confined to the mathematics of measurement and observation.
Abstract Quantum mechanics and relativity are extraordinarily successful mathematical theories, yet their conventional physical interpretations rely on substantially different conceptual frameworks. The Theory of Space (TS) proposes a fourth dimension defined by the Planck-related interval, with interpreted as a longitudinal dimension associated with energy (cτ), rather than as the conventional Minkowski spacetime interval. This fourth dimension does not coexist continuously with the observable three spatial dimensions as a conventional four-dimensional manifold. Instead, TS proposes an oscillatory existence between observable 3D presence and a non-observable fourth-dimensional phase. Through this oscillation, the quantum system undergoes repeated dimensional projection into observable 3D, with individual eigenstates manifested probabilistically while the underlying quantum state continues to evolve. Within this framework, phenomena including measurement, the Born rule, the arrow of time, entropy, entanglement, tunneling, and Bell-type correlations acquire a common physical interpretation. Heisenberg uncertainty and non-commutativity are interpreted as consequences of physical parameters associated with different phases of the dimensional oscillation and therefore not simultaneously manifested within the same 3D instance. TS further distinguishes between the quantum system’s spatial component and its compact physical entity. Their coexistence within the complete system provides a proposed physical basis for quantum interference and phase-dependent phenomena, including the double-slit experiment and the path-integral description of quantum evolution. As an extension of the model, TS proposes that the periodic displacement and replacement of quantum space generate a pulsed inward spatial flow. This mechanism provides a possible basis for a quantized gravitational interaction and suggests that gravitational energy may be represented by a positive contribution. Related developments, including spiral spatial flows, follow naturally from the same dimensional-oscillation mechanism. The Theory of Space therefore seeks to provide a common conceptual framework for quantum, relativistic, and gravitational phenomena without replacing the established mathematical equations that successfully reproduce experimental observations. The present work develops this framework and invites critical examination of its assumptions, physical implications, and potential experimental consequences.

By expanding the research paradigm and reconciling the two binary oppositions of "relative and absolute" and "quantum and classical" in physics, a new theoretical framework that is compatible with relativity and quantum mechanics is proposed. Firstly, excavate and establish three universal axioms: Axiom 1 (consensus guarantees equal rights), Axiom 2 (objective existence independent of measurement), and Axiom 3 (universality of causality and dialectical logic), based on which to criticize the logical contradictions of existing theories. In the field of relativity, this article points out that there is a logical paradox in the explanation of "clock slowing down depends on relative motion" in special relativity (A clock is both faster and slower than B clock), and proposes a relative absolute spacetime view that "absolute motion leads to clock slowing down". By extending the Lorentz transformation, absolute motion and relative motion are unified, solving problems such as the twin paradox. At the same time, based on the prediction of the Dirac equation for negative mass matter, the "negative mass spacetime curvature paradox" is proposed, challenging Einstein's physical explanation of spacetime curvature and arguing that it is only a mathematical tool (the mathematical expression of gravity) rather than a physical reality. In the field of quantum mechanics, this article criticizes the Copenhagen interpretation for violating Axiom 2 (denying the independent eigenstates of microscopic particles). By modifying the Schrödinger equation twice (For the first time, electromagnetic potential energy was replaced with gravitational potential energy, and the Schrödinger-Tu equation was established to describe macroscopic objects such as the Earth's revolution; The second step is to convert potential energy into electromagnetic/gravitational force and derive the wave mechanics equation of classical mechanics laws, such as Newton's second law with force operator), proves that quantum and classical theories are compatible within the same mathematical framework. In the experiment, it was demonstrated through the "anti-interference electron diffraction experiment" that a strong magnetic field only changes the shape of diffraction fringes without causing them to disappear, denying the inevitability of quantum decoherence. The establishment of "generalized wave dynamics" and "relative absolute spacetime view" breaks the binary opposition of traditional theories and provides a new paradigm for the unity of relativity and quantum mechanics. The core value of these jobs lies in: In terms of theoretical innovation, reconstruct the space-time and quantum interpretation system, while retaining the original mathematical form system; In terms of experimental verification, design feasible schemes such as hollow glass disk Jones experiment and geometric optical velocimetry experiment; In terms of philosophical significance, replacing "mathematical symmetry" with "content unity" and returning to the objectivity of physical mechanisms. The research conclusion indicates that by expanding paradigms and axiomatic constraints, the contradiction between relativity and quantum mechanics can be transformed into a complementary relationship, laying the foundation for the great unity of physics theory
The mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics has achieved tremendous success, yet its ontological foundations — including the essence of the wave function, the mechanism behind the measurement problem, and the origin of nonlocal correlations — have long remained unresolved. This paper proposes the fundamental field theory, which takes the complex field \Psi as the basic degree of freedom satisfying the standard bosonic commutation relation [\hat{\Psi}, \hat{\Psi}^\dagger] = \delta. Starting from this commutation relation, we derive the uncertainty principle and establish the action of the fundamental field. The Schrödinger equation is obtained under the non-relativistic limit. We explain the measurement problem and present the dynamical equation for wave function collapse via the trigger perturbation mechanism. Meanwhile, quantum entanglement is interpreted based on the nonlocal nature of the fundamental field. This paper also conducts a comparative analysis between the proposed model, the GRW model and the Penrose model, and puts forward four experimentally testable theoretical predictions. This manuscript serves as a companion to the classical branch focusing on S³ topological dynamics. The two papers jointly form a full theoretical description of physical systems. The S³ topological domain manuscript focuses on classical and semiclassical topics such as cosmology, gravitational waves and power laws of the four fundamental interactions, while this work centers on quantum mechanics fundamentals, measurement collapse and quantum entanglement. The two manuscripts are interconnected through the \Psi-\lambda mapping. The fundamental field theory does not negate quantum mechanics; instead, it complements quantum mechanics with a complete ontological foundation.
This work derives the fundamental framework of quantum mechanics intrinsically from the first-principle axioms of UD duality theory. Starting from the inherent binary expansive–condensative attributes of the UD ontology, four fundamental physical fields are naturally decomposed by spontaneous symmetry breaking across spatial and material existential domains. A two-component complex spinor structure is uniquely constructed, and the imaginary unit i is proven to be not merely a mathematical convention but a structurally necessary ingredient required by both the compact SU(2) symmetry and the orthogonal inter-containment of U and D attributes. Within the flat spacetime limit of the UD gravitational action, a system of coupled Klein–Gordon field equations is established, governed by a single self-consistent fundamental mass scale m₀=1/(2πe^π) with no adjustable free parameters. The coupling constant is determined analytically from the UD vacuum equilibrium background values and the U↔D duality symmetry. Through explicit construction of four-component Dirac spinors and auxiliary field decomposition, the on-shell equivalence between the UD coupled field equations and the free Dirac equation is rigorously demonstrated. The non-relativistic limit further recovers the Pauli equation and the Schrödinger equation sequentially, reconstructing the core dynamical equations of quantum mechanics from a unified foundational origin. Global U(1) phase invariance of the UD action is verified via total-derivative decomposition, yielding the standard Noether conserved current. The Born probability interpretation is deduced directly from the global normalization axiom by isolating localized laboratory-scale excitations from the cosmic background, eliminating the need for independent quantum postulates. Based on the intrinsic properties of the UD field components, a self-consistent ontological interpretation is provided for wave–particle duality, double-slit interference, and the quantum measurement problem. In this framework, the measurement problem is dissolved rather than solved: no collapse postulate is required, and determinism is restored at the ontological level. The theory naturally implies that the continuous D_U field permits quantum superposition, while condensed D_D intrinsic entities possess definite classicality without physical particle-state superposition. Three testable theoretical predictions are presented, establishing falsifiable physical consequences of the UD quantum formulation. This paper completes the intrinsic derivation of the foundational structure of quantum mechanics from UD theory. Together with the previously derived general relativity framework, it realizes the homologous unification of gravity and quantum mechanics within a single self-contained axiomatic system.
