Speculative Model of Coupled Mirror Universes: A Conceptual Framework

This work presents a speculative cosmological model in which the cosmos is part of a global system composed of two mirror universes (A and B), symmetric and non-locally coupled. The system dynamics are described through alternating phases of expansion and contraction, with an effective transfer of global conditions (rather than local forces) between both universes. The observed accelerated expansion is interpreted as an emergent geometric effect of this global coupling, compatible with an effective cosmological constant . The model incorporates considerations on entropy, the arrow of time, and temporal symmetry, and employs physical analogies (membranes, bubbles, crossed springs, coupled pistons) as intuitive support. This record also includes the original Spanish version of the manuscript and AI-generated text to speech audios from PDFs (from v4 ahead). Version 4 This version adds a new conceptual appendix addressing: Singularities (Big Bang–like events and black holes) as operational limits of space, time, and ordering. The notion of reset of degrees of freedom at singular limits. Clarification of why time-reversal symmetry does not imply reconstruction of past states. Additional dimensional and geometric analogies to improve conceptual clarity. The description also briefly notes speculative intuitions regarding black holes as potential sites of enhanced geometric coupling, acting as geometric anchors and their possible conceptual relation to entropy and Hawking radiation, without incorporating these ideas into the core framework. No changes are made to the core structure, assumptions, or conclusions of the model. Added AI-generated text to speech audios from PDFs Version 3 This version extends the conceptual framework presented in v2 through the addition of two appendices, without modifying the main body of the manuscript.

Abstract

This work presents a speculative cosmological model in which the cosmos is part of a global system composed of two mirror universes (A and B), symmetric and non-locally coupled. The system dynamics are described through alternating phases of expansion and contraction, with an effective transfer of global conditions (rather than local forces) between both universes. The observed accelerated expansion is interpreted as an emergent geometric effect of this global coupling, compatible with an effective cosmological constant . The model incorporates considerations on entropy, the arrow of time, and temporal symmetry, and employs physical analogies (membranes, bubbles, crossed springs, coupled pistons) as intuitive support. This record also includes the original Spanish version of the manuscript and AI-generated text to speech audios from PDFs (from v4 ahead). Version 4 This version adds a new conceptual appendix addressing: Singularities (Big Bang–like events and black holes) as operational limits of space, time, and ordering. The notion of reset of degrees of freedom at singular limits. Clarification of why time-reversal symmetry does not imply reconstruction of past states. Additional dimensional and geometric analogies to improve conceptual clarity. The description also briefly notes speculative intuitions regarding black holes as potential sites of enhanced geometric coupling, acting as geometric anchors and their possible conceptual relation to entropy and Hawking radiation, without incorporating these ideas into the core framework.
