The Structural Interpretation of Dark Matter

This paper reframes dark matter as a structural binding mode rather than a particulate substance. Instead of treating the dark‑matter deficit as evidence for an undiscovered material component, the work shows that the phenomenon emerges naturally from the universe’s generative architecture and the persistence of inherited curvature states. Building on the principles established in the Creation and Structural Memory papers, this study demonstrates that regions of early‑universe curvature can retain binding capacity across cosmic time, producing stable, non‑luminous halos without requiring new particles or exotic matter.The result is a coherent structural interpretation of dark matter: a manifestation of preserved curvature and binding behavior that maintains galactic and cluster‑scale coherence without contributing light. This framework resolves long‑standing inconsistencies in particulate models and aligns dark‑matter behavior with the broader structural grammar of the universe.
