Coherent-Emergence Cosmology

We propose a speculative cosmological framework, Coherent-Emergence Cosmology (CEC), in which classical spacetime, matter, and forces emerge from the scale-dependent alignment of information on a conjectured closed 3-sphere ($S^3$). The model postulates an infinite ``decoherent ocean'' of pure entropy as the primordial state, from which our universe nucleates as a point of order. Expansion---encompassing inflation, deceleration, and late-time acceleration---is unified as a single process: the continuous absorption and alignment of decoherent information, increasing the hypersphere radius $R(t)$. Intrinsic positive curvature ($k=+1$) is dynamically flattened by a global rotation $\Omega(t) \propto 1/R$, yielding effective flatness on observable scales. Gravity is conjectured to emerge as interference wells from overlapping null geodesics (``c-loops''), recovering the Newtonian limit and relativistic corrections. Dark matter is replaced by ``jitter zones'' of incomplete alignment, and the Hubble tension is addressed via early rotational energy. All dynamics derive from a unified action principle minimizing entropy and misalignment. This model requires no inflaton, no cosmological constant, and no dark-matter particles. Using only the Planck critical density as input, CEC predicts the rotation curves of all 175 SPARC galaxies to 5.7 \% median accuracy with zero free parameters.
