Key Points

  • The central aim is to redefine gravity as a consequence of the universe's topological properties rather than a fundamental interaction.
  • Proposed a model that sees the universe as a closed topological system.
  • Introduced a novel interpretation of cosmic expansion as internal metric scaling rather than external extension.
  • Reframed issues like dark energy and dark matter within a single geometric constraint.
  • Gravity is presented as a local effect stemming from global topological closure.
  • The model suggests that expansion is a scaling of the universe's internal metric.
  • The cosmological constant problem is addressed through this geometric approach.

Abstract

This paper proposes a fundamental reinterpretation of gravity, defining it not as a primary interaction, but as a local consequence of the global topological closure of the universe. The model introduces a novel interpretation of expansion: since no space exists outside the universe, expansion is not an extension into a hosting medium, but rather the scaling (relaxation) of the internal metric structure. This approach allows for the reframing of the cosmological constant problem, the nature of dark energy, and dark matter through a single global geometric constraint.
