Determinism, Entropy, and the Infinite: Foundations for the Dichronous Universe
Current cosmological models fall short in explaining several of the deep mysteries within physics. The Dichronous Universe presents a profound alternative: a cosmos without beginnings or endings, where two universally connected sub-verses exist in an eternal bidirectional cycle of entropy and renewal.
The Big Bang: A Dimensional Perspective
Traditional models propose a Big-Bang and predict an ultimate "heat death," leaving a cold void. They fail to address fundamental questions: What caused the Big Bang? Why does time flow in one direction? The Dichronous Universe resolves these mysteries by proposing an eternal cycle where time, entropy, and structure continuously transform: There is no end or beginning.
The Dichronous Big Bang, is not, as we would have perceived it, the expansion of a singularity. It is an ongoing inter-sub-verse transition at the core of the Universe - A massive white-hole ejecting space-time/energy initiating the flow of time in the Obverse (Our) phase and and a black-hole marking the end of time in the Reverse phase.
This dual nature ties the two phases of the Dichronous Universe together, making the ‘Big Bang’ both a conclusion and an origin.
Topology: A 5D Toroidal Universe
The overarching structure of the Dichronous Universe can be envisioned as a 5-dimensional hyper-toroid with a self-contained yet finite hyper-surface. From within, the universe appears infinite, with no discernible boundaries. However, from a higher-dimensional perspective, it is a closed system where the two sub-verses touch each other across the brane at every point simultaneously.
At the ‘core’ of the hyper-Toroid is the eternal ‘big-bang’ and at the outer boundaries of the hyper-surface, spacetime quanta stretch to such vast scales that time itself loses its conventional meaning. As spacetime is attenuated, events no longer occur, and interactions cease. At the indeterminate boundary, time ceases so there is no observable reversal or trigger event. Perhaps at a certain extenuation of space, there is no effort to reverse time/entropy, time being the ball at the top of the hill, requiring no push, just the presence of a downward gradient.
The Block Nature of the Dichronous Universe
The Dichronous Universe functions as a block universe, where past, present, and future coexist in a single, timeless framework. Each moment and event is a fixed point on a higher-dimensional structure. While we perceive time as flowing, this is an illusion of our limited perspective. From the higher-dimensional view, the entire history of the Dichronous Universe is a complete, unchanging whole, made of infinitely intertwined Obverse and Reverse sub-verses.
This block nature explains why the Big Bang is not a singularity: it is a consistent feature of the cycle, existing simultaneously with every other phase of the universe. The block perspective also clarifies the stability of the system, as each event’s position within the cycle contributes to its coherence.
Quantum theorists often critique the block universe hypothesis by focusing on the probabilistic nature of the quantum realm. In this hypotheses, the Block nature of the universe may only pertain to the macro world. The irregularity/fluctuations at a quantum scale could be explained by the effect of perturbations in the Brane caused by similar scale ‘impacts’ from neutrinos and other subatomic particles in the Reverse. In regard to free will and the nature of experiments, our entropy constrained linear perspective could simply prevent us from seeing any experiment across time.
A Higher-Dimensional Brane
At the heart of this system lies the Brane, a higher-dimensional membrane that seamlessly connects the Obverse and Reverse sub-verses at every point in time. In the Dichronous Universe, Space-time itself is the Brane. The Brane enables the flow of energy, entropy, and structure between the two sub-verse, maintaining their interdependence.
The Arrow of Time & Life
Time flows outward in two opposing directions, driven by the nature of the Big Bang’s duality. In the Obverse phase, time flows outward, expanding spacetime and increasing disorder, while in the Reverse phase, time flows inward, compressing spacetime and increasing order. This outward and inward flow defines the dynamic interplay of the Dichronous Universe, uniting the two phases as part of a greater whole.
Time’s directional flow is dependent on the initial conditions of each half of the universe. The Obverse and Reverse phases exhibit apparent forward and backward flows, but together they form a cohesive temporal cycle. A 3d observer in either universe would feel time as flowing 'forward' but in the Reverse, chaos would become ordered. It would be ridiculous to think of beings analogous to humans in the reverse. Any lifeforms would be based around the notion of energetic dispersal moving though complex maturity into quiescent order, perhaps crystallinity.
Gravity and Space-Time: Constants Across the Dichronous Universe
Gravity and spacetime remain constants throughout the Dichronous Universe. A gravity well in the Obverse phase creates a gravity peak in the Reverse phase, with mass and spacetime curvatures preserved. Celestial structures like stars and galaxies would exist on both sides, although their lifecycles will differ due to opposing entropy flows.
The universes are not mirrors of each other but opposites. Their relationship is one of complementary chaos and order, and the exact structures in one universe are not replicated in the other due to intrinsic randomness in the system. This chaotic interplay ensures that galaxy-shaped dents, for example, are not directly mirrored but dynamically related through the brane.
These constants provide not only a potential proof point of the Dichronous Universe cosmology but also a means of communication across the Brane.
Solving Mysteries
Singularities: The Big Bang & Black Holes. The Big Bang is thus not a singularity but a two-dimensional funnel at the core of the Dichronous Universe, a concentrated transition between sub-verses.
Each black hole in our universe is thus a localized energy geyser/white hole in the Reverse. These bursts of energy, such as gamma-ray bursts or quasars, could represent transient manifestations of inter-sub-verse flows. As matter collapses, it interacts with the brane, potentially transferring information and energy between sub-verses.
Energy Conservation: Energy is not lost to entropy but transformed, transitioning smoothly across the brane between phases. This cyclical transfer ensures energy balance and continuity in any ‘cross-section’ of the Dichronous Universe.
Quantum Entanglement: Entangled particles might demonstrate the all-touching nature of the brane in both space and time. Perhaps as we create such particles they are separated in space but not time. Perhaps they are still connected along the Brane in time. The observational collapse of probability is therefore just a re-confirmation of their time co-ordinates in a 5D universe. In other words, the Brane provides an hidden element to explain the phenomenon.
Dark Matter and Energy: These are not invisible forces but a result of the impacts on space-time of concentrations of normal matter, transmitted through the Brane.
Matter/Anti-Matter: Anti-matter in our universe is simply opposite charged matter. There is no reason to think that the Reverse is composed of such.
Provability
Conclusion
The Dichronous Universe offers a purely hypothetical vision of infinite cycles, where entropy, structure, and spacetime form a seamless whole. By redefining the Big Bang, addressing dark matter and energy, and reconciling quantum mechanics within a block framework, this model might resolve many of cosmology’s and the quantum realm’s greatest puzzles.
