Section 01: Unified Constraint System Framework

Introduction: From Six Isolated Puzzles to Unified System of Equations

Imagine six locks in front of you, each with its own keyhole:

  1. Black Hole Lock: Why is black hole entropy exactly equal to horizon area divided by 4 times Planck area?
  2. Cosmological Constant Lock: Why is cosmological constant so small, 120 orders of magnitude smaller than theoretical expectation?
  3. Neutrino Lock: Why do neutrinos have mass, and why such special mixing angles?
  4. Thermalization Lock (ETH): Why do isolated quantum systems spontaneously thermalize?
  5. Strong CP Lock: Why do strong interactions almost not violate CP symmetry?
  6. Gravitational Wave Lock: Why is gravitational wave propagation speed so close to speed of light, with no dispersion?

Traditional research treats these six locks as independent puzzles, searching for their own “keys” separately. But this chapter tells you: These six locks are actually six lock holes of same safe, sharing same internal mechanism, must be opened simultaneously to reveal universe’s secrets.

Core Idea:

These six problems should not be viewed as six mutually independent sub-problems, but should be rewritten as six sets of consistency constraints on same universe parent object.

This section will construct this unified constraint system framework, transforming six major puzzles into six mathematical constraint equations on a finite-dimensional parameter vector .


Part I: Universe Parameter Vector : Finite-Dimensional Universe DNA

1.1 Why Can Universe Be Described by Finite-Dimensional Parameters?

Analogy: Imagine universe is a supercomputer. Although it runs countless particles and fields, this computer’s “factory settings”—those basic parameters determining physical laws—must be finite.

Finite Information Principle:

If all observable physical constants and effective laws in universe can be completely described at finite precision and finite order, then this parameterized description should be compressible to finite-dimensional variables.

This is similar to:

  • An MP3 file contains millions of sample points, but its essential information can be encoded with finite parameters
  • A DNA sequence is long, but its genetic information is discrete and finite

1.2 Structure of Parameter Vector

Define universe parameter space:

where is finite integer (possibly between hundreds and thousands).

Part II: Unified Time Scale : Common Bridge of Six Major Constraints

2.1 What Is Unified Time Scale?

Analogy: Imagine listening to a symphony. Although there are different instruments like violin, cello, piano, they all follow same metronome. Unified time scale is universe’s metronome, coordinating time flow of all physical processes.

Unified Time Scale Master Formula:

This formula says: Three seemingly different physical quantities are actually same thing:

  1. : Frequency derivative of total scattering phase
  2. : Relative state density (state density difference between perturbed system and free system)
  3. : Trace of Wigner-Smith group delay matrix

2.2 Why Can Connect Six Problems?

Core Insight: Different frequency bands of control different physical phenomena.

    style GW fill:#f3e5f5
    style Neutrino fill:#e0f2f1
    style ETH fill:#fff4e6
    style Lambda fill:#f1f8e9

Frequency Band Control:

  1. High Frequency Band :

    • Determines energy fluctuations of small causal diamonds
    • Controls black hole entropy coefficient
    • Determines discrete dispersion corrections of gravitational waves
  2. Mid Frequency Band:

    • Spectral data of flavor-QCA sector
    • Neutrino mass matrix
    • Energy spectrum statistics of ETH
  3. Low Frequency Band :

    • Enters vacuum energy through spectral windowing integral
    • Determines effective cosmological constant

Key Point: This means six problems cannot be independently adjusted! If you change high-frequency to solve black hole entropy problem, automatically affects gravitational wave dispersion; if you adjust low-frequency part to solve cosmological constant problem, affects vacuum energy integral.


Part III: Six Constraint Equations: Turning Six Locks into Six Equations

3.1 General Form of Constraint Functions

For each physics problem , we define a constraint function:

This function measures “deviation of parameter from observation”. Ideally:

(1) Black Hole Entropy Constraint

Physical Requirement: Microscopic state counting entropy of black hole must equal macroscopic area law.

Constraint Form:

where is effective cell entropy density.

Core Equation:

(2) Cosmological Constant Constraint

Physical Requirement: Effective cosmological constant must be close to observed value, and cannot depend on fine-tuning.

Constraint Form:

where is naturalness functional, penalizing fine-tuning.

Key Mechanism:

High-energy spectrum sum rule:

(3) Neutrino Mass and Mixing Constraint

Constraint Form:

Observation Constraint:

GW170817/GRB170817A gives:

3.3 Unified Constraint Mapping

Combine six constraint functions into a vector-valued mapping:

Common Solution Space:

Physical Meaning: is set of points in parameter space simultaneously satisfying all six constraints. Our universe corresponds to some point (or some extremely small neighborhood) in .


Part IV: Geometric Structure of Solution Space: Why Is Universe So Special?

4.1 Implicit Function Theorem and Submanifold Structure

Mathematical Theorem:

Assume at some point , Jacobian matrix of constraint mapping has full rank:

Then near , solution set is a smooth submanifold of dimension .

Geometric Intuition:

    style C2 fill:#f3e5f5
    style C6 fill:#e8f5e9

Analogy Understanding:

Imagine parameter space is an -dimensional room. Each constraint is a wall (-dimensional hypersurface). Intersection of six walls is solution space (-dimensional).

  • If , solution space is 4-dimensional manifold (still has some degrees of freedom)
  • If , solution space is 0-dimensional (isolated point!)
  • If , system over-constrained, usually no solution

4.2 Special Case: Discrete Solutions When

Important Conclusion:

If parameter space is exactly 6-dimensional (), and Jacobian has full rank, then:

Physical Meaning: This means universe has almost no degrees of freedom! All basic parameters uniquely determined by six observational constraints (or only extremely few discrete choices).

Actual Estimate:

Actual parameter space dimension may be:

Therefore solution space is approximately 1894-dimensional submanifold, still has huge solution family. But key point: Six problems no longer independent, must simultaneously satisfy on same .

4.3 Discretization of Topological Sectors

Additional Constraint:

Parameter space is actually direct product of continuous part and discrete part:

where is topological sector (finite or countable set).

Specialty of Strong CP Constraint:

Condition only allows finite number of values in .

Final Conclusion:

Solution space is union of finite number of continuous branches, each branch corresponds to an allowed topological sector.

Part V: Cross-Locking Between Parameters

5.1 High-Frequency Locking of Black Hole Entropy-Gravitational Waves

Locking Mechanism:

Both constraints depend on high-frequency band and lattice spacing :

Overlap Window: Ranges of given by two constraints have non-empty intersection, but extremely narrow!

5.2 Internal Spectrum Locking of Neutrino-Strong CP

Locking Mechanism:

Both depend on spectral data of internal Dirac operator :

Key Point: If you adjust internal geometry to match neutrino data, automatically changes determinant phase of quark Yukawa matrices, thus affecting !

5.3 Spectrum Density Locking of Cosmological Constant-ETH

Locking Mechanism:

Both require energy spectrum to have specific statistical properties, cannot be independently adjusted.


Part VI: From Constraint System to Physical Predictions

6.1 Quantitative Correlations Across Fields

Unified constraint system leads to quantitative correlations between seemingly unrelated physical quantities:

Example 1: Black Hole Entropy ↔ Gravitational Wave Dispersion

If future discovery finds black hole entropy deviates from area law in extreme cases, then:

Example 2: Neutrino CP Phase ↔ Strong CP Angle

If neutrino experiments precisely determine CP phase of PMNS matrix, then:

6.2 Possibility of Parameter Inversion

Observation → Constraint → Invert

Theoretically, through precise observations in six fields, can gradually narrow allowed parameter intervals:
