Structural Time Theory as an Eliminative Program in Fundamental Physics

This work classifies Structural Time Theory (TFT) as an eliminative research program in fundamental physics. Rather than proposing new dynamics, entities, or unifying mechanisms, TFT operates by imposing structural constraints on admissible temporal interpretations in cosmology. Its scientific function is to eliminate structurally inconsistent frameworks through causal, global, and non-isolation criteria, thereby constraining the space of viable theoretical descriptions without constructing explicit models.

Abstract

This work classifies Structural Time Theory (TFT) as an eliminative research program in fundamental physics. Rather than proposing new dynamics, entities, or unifying mechanisms, TFT operates by imposing structural constraints on admissible temporal interpretations in cosmology. Its scientific function is to eliminate structurally inconsistent frameworks through causal, global, and non-isolation criteria, thereby constraining the space of viable theoretical descriptions without constructing explicit models.
