Galactic Expansion as a Signature of Resonant Celestial Torsion-Modulated Recursive Branching: Constraints from Gaia DR3

Key Points

This research aims to establish that galactic expansion is linked to Torsion-Modulated Recursive Branching and can be modeled using gravitational theories.
Utilized Gaia DR3 data to analyze galactic expansion patterns.
Developed a model incorporating torsion and branching parameters to fit observed radial velocities.
Performed simulations using Python to validate theoretical predictions.
Best-fit branching parameter eta_diff = 0.789 ± 0.072 matches independently calibrated value of eta_diff ≈ 0.82.
Radial velocity field aligns with observed values (3-9 km/s global means; up to 50 km/s sectoral).
Framework generates falsifiable predictions for cosmic structures and correlation patterns.

Abstract

We demonstrate that the non-equilibrium galactic expansion observed in Gaia DR3 is a natural macroscopic signature of Torsion-Modulated Recursive Branching (TMRB) in a resonant celestial holography framework. A discretized soft graviton theorem modulated by Z₉ gyroid torsion and characterised by a single differential branching parameter etadiff reproduces the Karapetian et al. (2025) radial velocity field (global means 3-9 km/s; sectoral values up to 50 km/s) with best-fit etadiff = 0. 789 +/- 0. 072, consistent with the independently calibrated value etadiff ~ 0. 82. The framework makes falsifiable predictions for vertical wave-crest timing, sector-velocity correlations, and early-universe structure formation. Python simulation code and Jupyter notebook included. Paper 30 in the PTRH (Prismatic Torsion Recursive Holography) series.
