Emergence of Time as a Fourth Dimension from Quantized Action

This work presents a foundational axiomatic and structural framework in which time is not assumed as a fundamental dimension, but emerges as a derived physical quantity from quantized action.

 

A minimum admissible structural period is introduced as a natural threshold of physical description. Below this threshold no physical state is defined and no examination is permitted. Physical events occur only when action contracts toward this threshold from higher structural scales, and time emerges exclusively under these conditions.

 

This record constitutes an independent foundational work. It is conceptually connected to the author's previous publications, while remaining fully self-contained. Subsequent works will build upon this framework as separate records.
