This paper presents the Universal Algorithm of Existence (UAE) as a speculative information-physics framework for interpreting quantum nonlocality and cosmological light observation. Rather than treating entangled correlations as “spooky action at a distance” or delayed-choice effects as evidence of retrocausality, the paper proposes that such phenomena can be understood as context-dependent resolutions of a deeper informational substrate. Using the delayed-choice quantum eraser and cosmological light retrieval as case studies, the paper formulates UAE in a disciplined mathematical language, states its consistency requirements with standard quantum mechanics and FLRW cosmology, and positions it as an interpretive research program awaiting distinctive testable predictions.

This preprint presents the Universal Algorithm of Existence (UAE) as a testable research program in information physics rather than as an established theory. The manuscript distinguishes between experimentally grounded anchor domains, broader alignment evidence, and speculative framework elements. It argues that recent developments in time-boundary dynamics, quantum recovery protocols, measurable quantum-state geometry, baryonic asymmetry, collective many-body behavior, and contextual measurement structure justify treating UAE as a serious interpretive and organizational framework. The paper also introduces geometric-state progression as a proposed intrinsic progress parameter for selected physical, biological, and computational systems, while stating clearly what would strengthen or weaken the framework.
This paper develops one of the most delicate interpretive claims in the Universal Algorithm of Existence (UAE): the proposal that physical collapse may be modeled, at least heuristically, as deterministic settlement through hidden constraint rather than as irreducible arbitrary selection. To make that claim scientifically reviewable, the manuscript is written as an analogy-and-model paper, not as a claim that standard quantum mechanics has already been replaced. It separates three levels that are often conflated: collapse as a physical interpretation, deterministic settlement as a model hypothesis, and constraint propagation in CNF / DRAT systems as a computational analogue. The paper argues that the most defensible scientific version of the idea is not that wavefunction collapse is literally SAT solving, but that formal constraint systems provide a rigorous analogue for how hidden structure can make an apparently uncertain state settle lawfully into a determinate outcome. The paper does not claim that this analogy is already a proof of deterministic quantum foundations. Its purpose is to define the analogy carefully, state the limits of the claim, and identify what would count as success or failure for this branch of the UAE program. In the broader UAE paper sequence, this paper functions as the collapse / deterministic settlement pillar, connecting the program’s internal “collapse as resolution” language to rigorous proof-certification analogies while keeping clear boundaries with standard quantum-foundations literature.
Delayed-choice and quantum eraser experiments are frequently interpreted as implying retrocausal effects, in which present measurement decisions influence past physical events. This paper develops an Observer-First Interpretation (OFI) in which quantum states are treated as observer-relative informational constructs constrained by evidence accessibility and record availability. Within this framework, delayed-choice phenomena do not involve backward-in-time physical influence, but instead arise from conditional informational updates applied to measurement records that were never globally fixed. Temporal paradoxes emerge only when observer-relative state assignments are illegitimately promoted to observer-independent histories. The proposed interpretation preserves causal ordering, respects relativistic constraints, and reproduces all standard quantum predictions without modifying the formalism of quantum mechanics.
Abstract: I propose a discrete-time ("frame-rate"/FPS) interpretation of quantum measurement where the universe updates in global, discrete ticks of duration Delta t. Within each tick, the global quantum state evolves unitarily and measurement outcomes are logged; joint probabilities are evaluated at the end of the tick. This reproduces standard quantum predictions for delayed-choice and quantum eraser experiments: single-detector (marginal) statistics remain non-interfering, while conditional coincidences display complementary interference patterns after erasing which-path information. No signaling or real retrocausation occurs; correlations are fixed by the global update that closes a tick. The framework becomes empirically distinct from standard quantum mechanics only if a finite tick Delta t* induces a small, distance- or delay-dependent reduction of interference visibility. I outline falsifiable consequences and a satellite-scale delayed-choice/eraser experiment.
Quantum entanglement is often interpreted as implying nonlocal influence or instantaneous collapse. In the Aetherium framework, entanglement is instead understood as a single coherence structure spanning multiple degrees of freedom within a pre‑geometric constraint architecture. Coherence does not propagate, time is relational, and measurement corresponds to a coherence‑reconfiguration event that selects a resonance‑compatible attractor for the entire shared structure. Bell correlations arise from the substrate’s resonance‑compatibility constraints rather than from nonlocal causation or hidden variables. Classical locality emerges only after coherence stabilizes into separate attractor states through decoherence. This coherence‑first ontology provides a single‑world, realist, and local account of entanglement that dissolves the appearance of “spooky action at a distance.” Keywords: Aetherium; entanglement; coherence; measurement problem; Bell correlations; pre‑geometric substrate; quantum foundations; decoherence; locality; resonance‑compatibility
Quantum entanglement remains one of the most conceptually unresolved phenomena in modern physics. Although quantum mechanics predicts experimental outcomes with exceptional accuracy, the ontological interpretation of nonlocal correlations remains open to debate. This paper presents a conceptual relational interpretation proposal in which entangled systems originate from a unified invariant informational structure. Under this framework, measurement is not treated as passive observation of pre-existing classical values, but as a contextual projection process interacting with an underlying shared state. The proposal suggests that entangled particles may remain contextual projections of a deeper unified relational structure rather than fully independent separated systems exchanging information after separation. To clarify the concept, the paper introduces a software architecture analogy in which multiple observable variants may share the same immutable core state while generating contextual outputs depending on interaction and input configuration. Under this interpretation, correlated quantum outcomes may emerge from shared invariant structure rather than post-separation communication. The paper also introduces a complementary Color Sphere analogy representing a unified quantum state containing structured relational information. Different measurement configurations generate distinct projections of the same underlying structure while preserving internal relational consistency. This proposal does not claim experimental verification or a complete mathematical replacement for quantum mechanics. Instead, it offers a conceptual and philosophical framework intended to motivate future mathematical, informational, or relational approaches toward understanding entanglement, measurement, and structural consistency in physical reality.
