Rethinking Spacetime and Time: Information Processing, Dynamic Generation, and the Arrow of Entropy

This paper introduces a conceptual framework exploring the nature of spacetime and time from an information-theoretic perspective. We propose two interconnected hypotheses: the 'Gravity Level (G) Field Framework', where a scalar field G represents local information density or complexity regulating physical interactions and propagation speed c(G); and the 'Dynamic Spacetime Generation (DSGT)' model, where spacetime itself is dynamically generated as 'cells' at a rate dependent on G. This leads to a novel definition of time as the rhythm of this cell generation process. We further explore how this dynamic generation, particularly through the lens of information entropy and microstate proliferation (Ω), could potentially provide a natural mechanism for the increase of entropy and the emergence of the arrow of time, suggesting a local entropy production rate σ(p) linked to G. While presented as an early-stage academic essay lacking rigorous mathematical formalism, this work aims to stimulate discussion and outline a potential research direction for addressing fundamental problems in physics, including singularity avoidance (via a G=1 limit) and the unification of spacetime dynamics with information principles. This document was created with the support of AI to provide linguistic assistance and enhance conceptual clarity. Full responsibility for the scientific direction and interpretations lies with the author.

Abstract

This paper introduces a conceptual framework exploring the nature of spacetime and time from an information-theoretic perspective. We propose two interconnected hypotheses: the 'Gravity Level (G) Field Framework', where a scalar field G represents local information density or complexity regulating physical interactions and propagation speed c(G); and the 'Dynamic Spacetime Generation (DSGT)' model, where spacetime itself is dynamically generated as 'cells' at a rate dependent on G. This leads to a novel definition of time as the rhythm of this cell generation process. We further explore how this dynamic generation, particularly through the lens of information entropy and microstate proliferation (Ω), could potentially provide a natural mechanism for the increase of entropy and the emergence of the arrow of time, suggesting a local entropy production rate σ(p) linked to G. While presented as an early-stage academic essay lacking rigorous mathematical formalism, this work aims to stimulate discussion and outline a potential research direction for addressing fundamental problems in physics, including singularity avoidance (via a G=1 limit) and the unification of spacetime dynamics with information principles. This document was created with the support of AI to provide linguistic assistance and enhance conceptual clarity. Full responsibility for the scientific direction and interpretations lies with the author.
