Abstract

This paper presents a mechanical derivation of Time within the framework of Push‑theory. We show that Time is not a fundamental dimension but an emergent temporal phase‑lag produced when the primordial Zero‑Point Energy (ZPE) flux encounters 3D topological obstruction. By introducing the Bifurcation of Flux—dividing reality into a Free Flux Path (n1 → n2) and a Knotted Flux Path (n3 → n4)—we unify Quantum Mechanics (QM), General Relativity (GR), and Push‑theory as three temporal perspectives of the same underlying process. We further define Time as the “Read‑Speed” of information as processed by matter, and resolve the Vacuum Catastrophe through dimensional scaling of the universal energy equation .
