Resolution of the Strong CP Problem via Topological Vacuum Cancellation in the SV0 Theory of Everything (Preprint)
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: The Strong CP Problem—the puzzling absence of CP violation in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) despite the presence of a theoretically allowed \theta-term—remains one of the most significant unsolved problems in particle physics. The standard solution invokes a new pseudoscalar particle, the axion, which has yet to be detected. In this paper (Paper XXV of the SV0 series), we present a natural geometric resolution within the Signed-Volume (SV0) framework. We demonstrate that the QCD \theta-angle is dynamically driven to zero by the SV0 exchange law. The topological vacuum of QCD is identified with the two-sector volume constraint |V_A| + |V_B| = V_0. The CP-violating phase is proportional to the volume asymmetry (1-2x). As the universe evolves towards the symmetric attractor x=1/2, the effective \theta-angle dynamically relaxes to zero. This mechanism eliminates the need for axions and resolves the Strong CP Problem through the geometry of discrete Space Packets, providing a falsifiable prediction for future axion searches.
