Ontological Substrate v1.0

REALITY IS
INFORMATION

No fundamental spacetime. No intrinsic quantum fields.
Just Φ (Substrate) and χ (Tracer) dynamics.

Low-Minimalism

Fundamental Principles

LM Theory reduces the entire catalog of physical phenomena to its absolute minimum mathematical substrate.

Ontology

The universe is not made of particles, but of Φ (Substrate) and χ (Tracer).

Entities

Symmetry

A single Z₂ symmetry (Φ → -Φ) breaks to generate mass and gravity.

Symmetry

Constraints

Strict ontological rules prevent non-physical entities, ensuring a stable, emergent reality.

Rules

A Paradigm Shift in Clarity

Modern physics requires hundreds of parameters and fundamental constants. LM Theory derives them from a single informational principle.

Emergent Geometry
Fundamental (Spacetime)
Derived (from Φ Gradient)
Mass Generation
Higgs Mechanism (Scalar Coupling)
Confinement (Φ² χ̄χ Coupling)
Gravity
Curvature of Spacetime (GR)
Thermodynamic Statistical Force
Fermion Generations
Arbitrary (3 Input Generations)
Exactly 3 (Boundary Requirement)
Singularities
Inevitable (Big Bang/Black Holes)
Prohibited (Finite Gradients)

"In LM Theory, the complexity is emergent, not fundamental."

Strictly Falsifiable

LM Theory follows the strictest Popperian standard. It is not a broad framework where anything can fit; it makes rigid, parameter-independent predictions.

The Kill List

Clear conditions that would immediately invalidate the theory (e.g., discovery of a 4th fermion generation).

Hard Predictions

Parameter-independent results like the exactly-3 mode matter structure.
