Wave-form Monistic Cosmology: An Ontological Integration of Black Holes, Big Bang, Photon Propagation, and Consciousness
Description
I propose in this paper a Wave-form Monistic Cosmology (WMC) as the ontological extension of the Quantum Geometric Wave Connectivity Hypothesis (QGWC). WMC unifies matter, space, time, photon propagation, cosmic origin, and consciousness under a single underlying principle: they are not isolated physical entities but distinct layers and compositional modes of the same underlying wave-form structure. The paper constructs this ontology through six sub-hypotheses H12–H17: H12 "consciousness identity is governed by a wave-form fidelity threshold"; H13 "ontological identity of space and wave-form"; H14 "Big Bang as wave-form phase transition"; H15 "black hole–Big Bang duality"; H16 "micro-perturbations in multi-dimensional time as the triggering mechanism of cosmic evolution"; H17 "photon propagation as wave-form reconstruction." Among these, H17 is the most pivotal: starting from the relativistic fact that the photon's own proper time is identically zero, and combining it with the Wheeler–Feynman absorber theory and Feynman's path integral, I argue that "light speed c" is not a velocity but a coupling constant between the external observer's spacetime scale and the wave-form reconstruction process; every photon emission-absorption is a microscopic wave-form reconstruction event. This perspective transforms QGWC's H10–H11 from "science-fiction physics conjecture" to "ontological reinterpretation of an already-known phenomenon." The concluding section grades each sub-hypothesis: H17 is an ontological reinterpretation; H12–H13 are conditional hypotheses; H14–H16 are cosmological conjectures.

Notes (English)
Companion paper: "The Quantum Geometric Wave Connectivity Hypothesis" by the same author. WMC builds upon QGWC's foundational hypotheses H1–H11 and extends into the ontological framework H12–H17. Readers are advised to read QGWC first. See Related Identifiers for DOI.
