The Minesweeper-Type Cosmological Model -- Inferring the Nature of the Universe from Observations --

This paper proposes the Minesweeper-Type Cosmological Model, an approach to understanding the universe by inferring possible cosmic states from observational constraints. Inspired by questions about the physical interpretation of cosmological redshift and the idea that space itself stretches, the paper explores an alternative starting point: rather than relying exclusively on an existing model, investigate what kinds of universes are consistent with observed phenomena. The proposal does not reject established cosmology, but invites further consideration of how observational evidence can guide the construction of cosmological models.

Abstract

This paper proposes the Minesweeper-Type Cosmological Model, an approach to understanding the universe by inferring possible cosmic states from observational constraints. Inspired by questions about the physical interpretation of cosmological redshift and the idea that space itself stretches, the paper explores an alternative starting point: rather than relying exclusively on an existing model, investigate what kinds of universes are consistent with observed phenomena. The proposal does not reject established cosmology, but invites further consideration of how observational evidence can guide the construction of cosmological models.
