QKM - A Unified Quantum Field Theory through Structured Energy Pathways
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The unification of fundamental forces remains an open challenge in theoretical physics. Thispaper introduces the Quantum Knot Model (QKM), a novel framework that describes fundamentalinteractions as structured energy pathways rather than distinct force carriers. By replacing clas-sical gravitational constants with quantum-derived formulations, QKM reinterprets gravity as anemergent energy effect rather than a fundamental force. The model further suggests that all fun-damental interactions—gravity, electromagnetism, and nuclear forces—are variations of structuredquantum flows, eliminating the need for gauge bosons as independent mediators. We derive modi-fied Newtonian equations incorporating structured energy pathways, explore their implications forquantum gravity, and provide testable predictions for nuclear stability and vacuum energy structur-ing. Our approach resolves long-standing inconsistencies between quantum mechanics and relativitywhile offering a self-consistent reformulation of gravitational interaction. This work lays the founda-tion for experimental validation and applications in high-energy physics, astrophysics, and quantumcomputing.
