This work introduces a kernel framework redefining physical concepts, indicating a new foundational approach in physics.
Contemporary physics treats space, time, mass, energy, and fields as fundamental primitives.This work argues that none of these concepts are required at the foundational level. We introducea pre-geometric kernel framework in which all standard physical primitives are replaced by a singlescalar structure together with a precise notion of representational interface. The kernel containsno dynamics, no causal ordering, no geometry, and no dimensional quantities. Physical conceptsarise only through coarse-graining and interface-dependent representation. This paper does notreconstruct any specific physical theory; instead, it establishes the minimal structural conditionsunder which such reconstructions are possible. The result is a clear separation between kernelinvariants and interface artifacts, providing a rigorous foundation for subsequent derivations ofclassical, relativistic, and quantum physics without assuming their customary primitives.
