Temporal Mechanics proposes that quantum phase, relativistic proper time, gauge structure, and rest mass arise from a compact internal temporal geometry. The model uses a temporal three-torus, a U (3) bundle, determinant-line phase locking to an external Spinᶜ (1, 3) structure, internal holonomy, and an internal Dirac spectrum to reinterpret Standard Model gauge structure, Higgs-like modes, flavor mixing, and fermion mass scales.
