Discrete Bekenstein-Hawking Framework
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: A novel model for the problem of Quantum Gravity. The formal topologies of continuous General Relativity and discrete Quantum Mechanics are fundamentally irreconcilable without an intervening boundary constraint. We propose the dual-manifold formalism: a deterministic framework that reclassifies wave-function collapse as a localised thermodynamic phase transition. By strictly bounding quantum state reduction at the Bekenstein limit, we demonstrate that macroscopic spacetime curvature emerges natively as the mandatory metric deformation tethered to localised mass-energy. Mapped via standard thermodynamic equations of state, this localised thermal flux mechanically recovers continuous gravity without invoking unobserved dimensions or novel gauge bosons.
