A Chiral-Torsion–Driven Multilayer Brane Cosmology: A-Theory of Emergent Gravity, Information Flow, and Speculative Extensions to Consciousness and Seismic Dynamics

This is an updated version of the original manuscript. Changes in this version include: - Clarification of the functional distinction between right-handed torsion (Ψᴿ), anti–right-handed torsion (−Ψᴿ), and left-handed torsion (Ψᴸ). - Addition of Section 4.7, which presents an exploratory and observationally motivated discussion of planetary and stellar rotation (e.g., Venus and the Sun) as a qualitative interface with the chiral torsion framework. - Further refinement of scope limitations to clearly separate physical assumptions from conceptual and philosophical extensions. No empirical claims are added in this revision. The theoretical scope remains explicitly exploratory.
