UCP-E8++: Early structure formation from fractal initial conditions: Resolving the JWST massive galaxy tension

JWST observations of massive, mature galaxies at redshifts z ∼ 14 challenge the ΛCDMtimeline, which requires ∼ 0.5 Gyr to assemble 10^10M_⊙ halos. We show that the UCP-E8++framework naturally resolves this tension. The Big Bang is not a singularity but a coherence transition from the static seed state c = 0 in the Mandelbrot iteration z_(n+1)=z^2_n + c, with discrete time t = nt_P. Primordial density fluctuations inherit alog-periodic modulation from the self-similarity of the Mandelbrot boundary, leading to an initial power spectrum.
