TTU-Q: An Ontological Answer to the Quantum Bridge Problem

Abstract: The problem of unifying general relativity and quantum mechanics has reached a fundamental ontological impasse: the status of time. Standard approaches, which attempt to build a "bridge" between the two theories, fail because they leave time as an external parameter. This work presents an ontological reconstruction, TTU-Q, in which time is not a parameter but the primary substance. It is shown that spacetime, gravity, and quantum effects emerge as properties of the entanglement (scepka) of time streams τ⁺ and τ⁻. Thus, TTU-Q does not build a bridge between the two shores; it rethinks the very landscape, resolving the original contradiction.
