Black Holes as Regions of Extremely High-Density Dark Matter: The Present Moment as Singularity of Time (Axiom 0) within the Temporal Emergence Reality (TER) Framework

Type: article
Abstract: Standard physics treats the present moment as a point of non-zero duration dt > 0 embedded within a time axis. This leads to conceptual problems regarding the nature of ”now”. We propose Axiom 0 of the Temporal Emergence Reality (TER) Framework: The true present moment P0 cannot exist within time, because any duration within time necessarily contains past and future. Therefore P0 must have dT = 0. Zero duration is equivalent to No Time, which we identify with Nothingness N0. We formalize this as Nothon, a hypothetical quantum of the present moment.From this single axiom, we derive an emergence sequence: N0 → ΦN → S ⊥ T → Mt =∫︂ ρN dV (1) where ΦN is Time Flux, proposed as a Fifth Force. Within TER, Dark Matter is interpreted as condensed Nothon, Dark Energy as flowing Nothon, and Black Holes as macroscopic regions where T → 0 but Nothon density ρN → maximum. This framework provides a finite core for black holes, Rmin =(︃ Mt ρN,max)︃ 1/3, (2) removing the central singularity of General Relativity and giving a unified density profile ρBH (r) = ρN,maxf (r/rs).
