This is Version 4 of the work. It introduces a variational principle for the informational metric, derives equations of motion, and presents a modified quantum evolution, It includes a dynamical derivation of the informational metric and introduces a testable prediction for entropy-dependent entanglement growth.This work proposes a theoretical framework in which entropy is treated as a geometric degree of freedom in an extended quantum state space. By introducing a resolution parameter defined as the inverse of von Neumann entropy, an informational metric is constructed on the space of density matrices. Within this framework, a causal structure emerges from a null condition on the metric, defining a light-cone-like boundary for the propagation of quantum correlations. Entanglement propagation is derived and shown to depend on entropy evolution, leading to a dynamical causal structure. In the near-equilibrium limit, the model reproduces a Lieb–Robinson-type bound with finite correlation speed. Connections to holography are established by interpreting entropy as a radial coordinate controlling scale, and an analogue of the Ryu–Takayanagi relation is derived, where entropy corresponds to the length of minimal curves in the informational geometry. Black hole horizons are interpreted as maximal entropy surfaces corresponding to a collapse of distinguishability in quantum state space. The framework suggests that spacetime geometry, causality, and gravitational behavior may emerge from entropy-weighted quantum information structure. This work is an independent theoretical exploration aimed at providing a unified perspective linking quantum information, geometry, and gravity.
