Dark Energy from Topological Sector Imbalance: A Rigid Falsiable Prediction from the Temporal Direction Topology Principle

We derive the dark energy equation of state from the Temporal Direction Topology Principle (TDTP), which identifies the time direction as a topological invariant of the Pin+ bundle. The Pin- bordism group vanishes in 4D (Ω_4^{Pin-} = 0), making Pin+ the unique spacetime structure capable of producing topological dark energy. The Z_2 exchange symmetry constrains the dark energy density to ρ_DE = ρ_0(1 + c_2 Δ(t)^2), where ρ_0 is the sector background vacuum energy and Δ(t) = e^{-2Γ_Σ t} is the sector imbalance. Combined with Lindblad dynamics (supported by the de Sitter thermalization result of Yu & Wu), this yields two rigid falsifiable constraints: (i) w > -1 for all z (phantom crossing never occurs), and (ii) a specific exponential-decay functional form w(z) + 1 ∝ Δ(z)^2/(1 + c_2 Δ(z)^2) with a non-monotonic peak at z ≈ 0.8. With Γ_Σ = H_0 and c_2 ≈ 10.3, we predict w_0 = -0.762, agreeing with DESI DR2+DESY5 (w_0 = -0.752 ± 0.057) within 0.2σ. DESI DR3 and Euclid will provide decisive tests.

Abstract

We derive the dark energy equation of state from the Temporal Direction Topology Principle (TDTP), which identifies the time direction as a topological invariant of the Pin+ bundle. The Pin- bordism group vanishes in 4D (Ω_4^{Pin-} = 0), making Pin+ the unique spacetime structure capable of producing topological dark energy. The Z_2 exchange symmetry constrains the dark energy density to ρ_DE = ρ_0(1 + c_2 Δ(t)^2), where ρ_0 is the sector background vacuum energy and Δ(t) = e^{-2Γ_Σ t} is the sector imbalance. Combined with Lindblad dynamics (supported by the de Sitter thermalization result of Yu & Wu), this yields two rigid falsifiable constraints: (i) w > -1 for all z (phantom crossing never occurs), and (ii) a specific exponential-decay functional form w(z) + 1 ∝ Δ(z)^2/(1 + c_2 Δ(z)^2) with a non-monotonic peak at z ≈ 0.8. With Γ_Σ = H_0 and c_2 ≈ 10.3, we predict w_0 = -0.762, agreeing with DESI DR2+DESY5 (w_0 = -0.752 ± 0.057) within 0.2σ. DESI DR3 and Euclid will provide decisive tests.
