Gravity as Symmetry Enforcement: A Field-Based Framework for Curvature and Collapse
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper proposes a redefinition of gravity as a symmetry-enforcing force. Instead of treating gravity as a passive result of mass-energy or spacetime curvature, it is framed as an active field-level mechanism that restores balance when structural symmetry is disrupted. The model introduces the ratio σ = μ / ν, where μ represents collapse resistance and ν represents inertial memory. This ratio serves as a structural identity signature across gravitational systems. Gravity is recast as the field’s geometric correction to imbalance—a structural resolver rather than a passive consequence. Implications extend to planetary field identities, black hole collapse, and gravitational lensing, all reframed as symmetry-resolving phenomena.
