Theoretical analysis derives the universal baryon fraction and primordial element abundances, resolving the cosmological lithium problem without dark matter sectors.
This scientific preprint presents an analytical, parameter-free (k=0) derivation of the universal cosmic baryon fraction Ξ©bβ‘1β3/Οβ4.507034% from geometric scale invariance governed by the Conformal Scale Operator Ξβ‘Ο/3β1.04719755. Calibrated against the local expansion rate (H0local=H0CMBβ Ξβ70.58 km/s/Mpc), the theoretical derivation matches the observational baryon density extracted from the Planck 2018 legacy dataset (Ξ©b,obsβ4.4904%) within a relative margin below 0.36%0.36%, fully contained within the 1Ο experimental uncertainty. Furthermore, the model analytically determines the equilibrium cosmological baryon-to-photon ratio asΞ·β6.102Γ10β10, predicting primordial light element abundances (4Hemass fraction Ypβ0.2462Ypβ0.2462and Deuterium abundance D/Hβ2.541Γ10β5) in strict alignment with astronomical spectroscopy (Aver et al., Cooke et al.), while simultaneously resolving the persistent >4Ο cosmological Lithium problem (7Li/Hβ1.682Γ10β10, Spite plateau) without fine-tuning or non-baryonic particulate dark sectors.
