Relational Dynamics Theory: A Unifying Framework for Oscillatory Existence

This paper introduces Relational Dynamics Theory (RDT), a unifying framework that reinterprets existence as a boundary-less, oscillatory system in which time, beginnings, and ends emerge as observer-dependent constructs rather than absolute dimensions. RDT posits that all phenomena are manifestations of a single, cyclical energy transfer process, continuously oscillating within a fixed total energy. In this model, time is not linear but an emergent property of relational dynamics, observed differently depending on an observer's position within the oscillation.
By viewing existence as a self-sustaining cycle, RDT proposes that dark matter, traditionally viewed as a particle-based anomaly, could instead represent gravitational influences of energy oscillating out of phase with observable matter. This interpretation provides a novel lens for unexplained gravitational effects, such as flat galaxy rotation curves and cosmic structure, positing that they result from phase-aligned gravitational dynamics rather than unknown particles or modified forces.
Additionally, RDT offers a reinterpretation of multiverse theories by suggesting that parallel realities may represent different phase states within a single, unified continuum. Each "universe" could thus be an observer-relative perspective within the oscillatory cycle, layered within the same field of relational dynamics rather than existing as independent or branching entities.
RDT aims to offer an integrated, observer-relational perspective that bridges the domains of cosmology, quantum mechanics, and relativity. Potential tests for this framework include identifying unique phase-dependent patterns in gravitational waves, re-evaluating cosmic microwave background data for cyclical imprints, and exploring quantum behaviours for evidence of relational, cyclical time dynamics.
