Metric Engineering via Recursive Information Gradients: A Feasible Warp Drive Mechanism based on the Entropic Gravity of SDRIS

The Alcubierre Warp Drive solution to Einstein's equations permits faster-than-light travel but implies unphysical "negative energy" requirements. This paper applies the SDRIS framework [1-14] to resolve this energy condition violation. Based on the proof that Gravity is an Entropic Force (Paper 9) and that Mass is Recursive Complexity (Paper 7), I demonstrate that spacetime curvature can be induced by manipulating the local Recursive Potential $\Phi_{rec}$. Instead of exotic matter, I propose an Entropic Drive that employs a "Maxwell's Demon" array to create a gradient in the information processing density of the vacuum. By artificially lowering the recursive complexity $\mathcal{C}$ in front of the vessel, an effective gravitational well is created, pulling the craft forward without violating the Weak Energy Condition.
