Core result: A minimal two-parameter late-time correction to H(z), motivated by free photons regressing toward a pre-Big Bang symmetric state, simultaneously resolves the Hubble tension and the S8 tension while remaining fully consistent with high-redshift CMB and BAO data. The decaying model (β ≈ 0.058, τ_eff ≈ 21 Gyr) matches DESI DR2 low-z BAO measurements within 1σ and improves the joint Planck+DESI fit by ∆χ² ≈ −7.4 compared to ΛCDM.

2025-11-21This work introduces the EPOCH framework, a unified resolution of late-time cosmological tensions. By deriving an expansion-aware regression ansatz, we identify a characteristic effective timescale τ_eff ≈ 21 Gyr, exceeding the chronological age of the Universe. This suggests photon regression encodes the integrated dynamical state of the cosmos. The framework provides a consistent interpretation of Hubble tension, BAO anomalies, and late-time acceleration, offering a physically meaningful imprint of cosmological dynamics.
