Description
We propose a two-stage framework for the emergence of gravity based on a temporal phase transition. In the first stage, a scalar order parameter Φ\PhiΦ establishes the local flow of proper time, leading to an isotropic conformal spacetime in which both temporal and spatial intervals scale uniformly. In this phase, gravitational effects arise from spatial variations in the rate of time, generating an effective potential that reproduces Newtonian acceleration.
In the second stage, the production of matter induces anisotropy between temporal and spatial metric components, leading to a separation between time and space scaling factors. This transition allows the emergence of full spacetime curvature consistent with relativistic gravity. In the weak-field limit, the model reproduces the standard post-Newtonian form when the temporal and spatial perturbations coincide.
