Theoretical Foundations of the Covering Theory: Time as the Measure of Existential Behavior

Alisalam Baghirov

Abstract

Abstract This paper introduces the theoretical foundations of the Covering Theory, proposing that time is not an independent physical dimension but a quantitative measure of the continuity of existential behavior. According to this framework, all physical entities preserve their integrity through resonance-based covering structures. Time emerges as an observable parameter reflecting changes in the stability and evolution of these structures rather than existing as a fundamental substance. The theory further argues that the photon possesses an inherently wave-like nature, while particle-like observations arise from interactions with covering environments. This approach provides a unified conceptual framework linking matter, energy, space, and resonance into a single coherent model. The proposed interpretation offers alternative perspectives on quantum behavior, relativity, and the measurement problem while maintaining logical consistency with observable physical phenomena. The work is presented as a conceptual foundation intended for further mathematical development and experimental investigation.

Reimagining Reality: Consciousness, External Energy, and the Space-Time Quantum as the Foundation of Physics

Pushpak N. Bhandari, Nandan M Bhandari

This paper introduces a theoretical framework that bridges the conceptual divide between quantum mechanics and relativity by proposing a fundamental building block of the universe: the “Space-Time* quantum.” The theory posits that every object possesses an inherent property, Time* — defined as the reciprocal of its intrinsic frequency. The Space-Time* quantum is a composite entity, consisting of a timeless space energy and a kinetic Time* energy. This framework provides a new perspective on wave-particle duality, the double-slit experiment, and quantum entanglement. It re-examines the principles of Special Relativity, offering a conceptual and visual explanation of phenomena such as time dilation and length contraction as a consequence of changes in the Space-Time quanta. The theory also provides an alternative view on the origin of the universe and the nature of gravity, suggesting that gravitational effects arise from an energy deficiency rather than a curvature of spacetime. This paper establishes a conceptual foundation for further mathematical development to test and validate these new insights.

Theory of Temporal Relativity

Alessio Piccinotti

The Theory of Temporal Relativity proposes a unified theoretical framework that extends Special and General Relativity into the complex domain, integrating aspects of Quantum Mechanics within a single geometrical structure. The theory introduces a generalized Hilbert-space geometry and interprets quantum states as observer-dependent, arising from complex temporal relations between reference frames. Theory of Temporal Relativity is a theoretical framework proposing a unified extension of Special and General Relativity into the complex domain, with the goal of incorporating aspects of Quantum Mechanics within a consistent geometrical model. The theory generalizes Hilbert-space geometry and relativistic invariance to complex coordinates, introducing observer-dependent descriptions of physical quantities and a reinterpretation of quantum states as complex-phase relations between reference frames. Within this model, fundamental constants such as c, G, and h are not strictly universal but can exhibit apparent local variations arising from the observer’s position in the complex spacetime manifold. These variations preserve global covariance and CPT symmetry while reconciling quantum non-locality with relativistic kinematics. The framework predicts experimentally testable effects, including measurable phase shifts in interferometric experiments, possible frequency modulations in non-inertial systems, and small local deviations of physical constants detectable in condensed-matter and gravitational contexts. The supplementary work, “Quantum Uncertainty, Planck’s Constant, and Ontological Insights from Complex Spacetime Geometry and Local Metric Deformations”, develops the principle of Temporal Relativity as a foundational element of the theory. It formalizes the connection between quantum uncertainty, metric deformations, and complex temporal structures, within an alternative logical framework (AU). This extension provides both an ontological interpretation of the wavefunction and a basis for the emergence of quantum indeterminacy from geometric causes. Together, these works present a coherent attempt to unify the relativistic and quantum domains under a single complex-geometric view of spacetime, maintaining mathematical rigor while providing clear experimental pathways for empirical validation.

Foundations of an Observer-Dependent Informational Theory of Physics

Greco, Giuseppe Junior

This work introduces the foundations of an observer-dependent informational theory of physics.Rather than proposing a closed or final model, the paper establishes the conceptual and methodological architecture of a unified research program in which physical phenomena are described through observer-accessible informational states. The theory treats the observer as an integral component of physical description, rather than as an external disturbance or purely abstract entity.Information is defined operationally, as a relational construct linking observation, structure, and temporal coherence. The paper does not present new mathematical derivations.Instead, it provides a stable foundational framework that unifies a set of modular technical works, each addressing specific physical, cognitive, or interpretative problems. Mathematical formulations, empirical models, and testable predictions are delegated to the corresponding modular papers, allowing the theory to evolve through falsification and refinement without requiring repeated foundational revision. This contribution is intended as a foundational reference for an evolving observer-centered informational approach to physics.

Time-External Interpretation of Quantum Phenomena Based on the Light Universe Theory: Conceptual Paper (Photon Time-External Version)

Akihito Sugawara

This conceptual paper presents a time-external interpretation of quantum phenomena based on the Light Universe Theory. It proposes that quantum entities exist as fluctuations outside of time and are only drawn into the temporal domain through the act of observation, manifesting as causally consistent outcomes. The paper incorporates the physical property that photons experience no passage of time (proper time zero) as a concrete basis for this interpretation. Key phenomena such as probabilistic behavior, quantum entanglement, and the measurement problem are reinterpreted within this framework. The paper also discusses connections with quantum mechanical calculations, showing that time-independent formulations align with the concept of time-external fluctuations, while time-dependent calculations correspond to observation-driven entry into time. This work offers a complementary conceptual model for understanding quantum mechanics and provides a philosophical and intuitive perspective on quantum behavior in relation to light and time.

QUANTUM FIELD COHERENCE AND RELATIVISTIC SPACE-TIME STRUCTURE: CONCEPTUAL AND FOUNDATIONAL ANALYSIS

Mart Kallas, Liis Vaher

Abstract The conceptual unification of quantum mechanics and relativity remains one of the central challenges of modern theoretical physics. While quantum theory successfully describes microscopic phenomena through probabilistic wave dynamics and field quantization, relativity establishes the geometric structure of space-time and the causal organization of physical events. Despite extensive progress in quantum field theory and relativistic quantum frameworks, foundational tensions persist regarding locality, causality, and coherence. This study presents a conceptual and structural analysis of quantum field coherence within relativistic space-time. Rather than focusing on specific unification proposals, we examine the compatibility conditions between quantum coherence, relativistic causality, and space-time structure. Particular attention is given to field-based interpretations of quantum states, entanglement propagation limits, and covariance requirements. The analysis synthesizes perspectives from relativistic quantum field theory, conceptual foundations of quantum measurement, and geometric interpretations of space-time. We argue that coherence phenomena can be understood as structurally constrained by relativistic causal order, without requiring violation of space-time locality. The aim of this article is to clarify foundational relationships between quantum coherence and relativistic structure through a conceptual framework that integrates field-theoretic and geometric viewpoints.

The Collapse of Time

Brian J Davies

The Collapse of Time explores a foundational reversal in quantum theory, proposing that time emerges from the process of wavefunction collapse rather than acting as a pre-existing background. Probability is treated as quantum possibility that becomes classical reality through irreversible collapse events. In contrast to gravity-induced collapse models, this framework examines whether collapse itself may generate temporal structure and gravitational imprinting. The work complements geometric collapse approaches by reframing the quantum-to-classical transition as the physical origin of time, causality, and classical structure. This paper is intended as a conceptual exploration. For the complete formal geometric framework, please use the link below..
