We present Event Density (ED), a single substrate ontology of discrete events andrelational adjacency from which the foundational structures of three nominally separatedomains of physics are derived rather than postulated. From substrate primitives alonewe obtain: (i) the four foundational postulates of non-relativistic quantum mechanics —Born’s rule, the Schrödinger equation, the Heisenberg uncertainty bound, and the Bell–Tsirelson bound — as forced structural theorems, together with gauge fields, canonical (anti-)commutation, UV-finiteness, and the kernel-level arrow of time; (ii) Newton’s gravitationallaw with G = c³ ℓₚ² / ℏ, the MOND transition acceleration a₀ = c·H₀ / (2π), the deep-regimecombination law a = √(aₙ · a₀), and the slope-4 baryonic Tully–Fisher relation v⁴ = G·M·a₀,all parameter-free; and (iii) a universal degenerate-mobility law D(c) = D₀ (1 − c/cₘₐₓ)ᵝ thatfits diffusion data from ten chemically unrelated soft-matter systems with R² > 0.986 at acommon exponent β = 1.72 ± 0.37. The framework predicts no laboratory result that differsfrom standard physics in the regimes where standard physics has been tested. What it doesis replace a long list of independent postulates with a smaller list of substrate commitments,from which those postulates follow as theorems. We tabulate twenty-one forced structuraltheorems plus one foundational substrate rule, derive the load-bearing results, and close withthe framework’s pre-registered empirical falsifiers.
