The Meliverso: A Coherence-Driven Informational Dynamics Framework for Emergent Reality

We propose the Meliverso, a theoretical framework in which physical reality emerges from the dynamics of an underlying informational substrate. The core variable is an informational density field I(x,t)I(x,t)I(x,t), identified with Fisher Information, which provides an intrinsic geometric structure via the Fisher–Rao metric. The evolution of this field is governed by a nonlinear reaction–diffusion equation coupled to a coherence field C(x,t)C(x,t)C(x,t), acting as an order parameter that modulates the transition between incoherent and self-organized regimes. The model introduces a coherence-driven amplification mechanism with logistic saturation, leading to a critical phase transition at a threshold coupling parameter. Below this threshold, coherence decays and informational structures dissipate; above it, stable, self-amplifying coherent configurations emerge. This transition provides a quantitative criterion for the formation of self-referential structures within the system. Spacetime geometry is treated as an emergent phenomenon arising from gradients of the informational field, with an effective metric that maps onto scalar–tensor theories within the Horndeski class. The framework further outlines multiple falsifiable predictions, including signatures in interferometric noise, coherence dynamics in biological networks, and propagation anomalies in engineered informational media. The Meliverso is presented as a computationally tractable and experimentally testable framework that unifies informational dynamics, emergent geometry, and coherence-based structure formation, providing a foundation for further investigation into the relationship between information, physical law, and complex self-organizing systems.
