Type: preprint
Abstract: We present a formal framework demonstrating the topological invariance of the finestructureconstant (αQED) under a variable speed of light (VSL) architecture governedby the asymmetric, asymptotic exponential Seashell-Universe metric. Although adirect naive substitution of c → v(R) yields an unphysical divergence of α(R) → ∞ inthe primordial epoch, we implement a local U(1) gauge invariance mechanismcombined with conformal parameter transformations to establish strict spatial andtemporal constancy (dα/dR = 0). Furthermore, we model the contemporary residualmicro-variations (< 10−16) in optical transition frequencies cross-correlated along theEarth's helicoidal trajectory. Numerical optimization algorithms applied to multi-yeartemporal series from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) andthe Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) validate a geographic phasealignment (Δφ ≈ 2.01 rad) matching their spatial orientation, confirming the kinematicembedding of atomic standards within the flat asymptotic plateau of the cosmicconoid.
