From Absolute Nothingness to Cosmic Genesis: An ICCF-Based Thermodynamic Account of the Universe’s Origin

The origin of the universe is often framed as an inexplicable singularity. In this paper, we propose an alternative framework rooted in the Information-Cognitive Compression Field (ICCF) theory. Building on the thermodynamic laws and the principle of least action, we argue that the universe’s birth can be understood as an emergent, stepwise physical process. Entropy, balance, and conservation act as the primordial regulators of existence, while the principle of least action emerges as their optimal reconciliation. Within this scheme, the “Big Bang” is not an initial singularity but a critical phase transition arising from cumulative entropic asymmetries within the quantum void. This account provides a unified philosophical-physical perspective on how order, time, and space emerge naturally from absolute nothingness.
