Dark Energy Is Pure Quantized Existential Energy

This paper presents a foundational declaration within the framework of the Dahli Model, proposing a new definition of dark energy in terms of its existential origin, quantum nature, and cosmic structure. The declaration is based on a fundamental principle: existence precedes the universes, and pure existential energy is the sum of the pure cosmic energies of all universes, without any activation. This energy takes a quantized structure, such that each existential quantum represents one pure cosmic energy. Based on this conception, the Dahli Model establishes that dark energy is pure quantized existential energy, and is neither the vacuum energy contained in physical fields nor the minimum energy of those fields. The model establishes a distinction between two types of cosmic vacuum: the relative vacuum associated with physical fields, and the pure cosmic vacuum resulting from the superposition of fields, which is most likely to take the form of a brane in an uncontracted pure cosmic spatial dimension, to which the existential quanta are connected through contracted pure cosmic temporal dimensions. Through this distinction, the Dahli Model separates vacuum energy, which is associated with the pure counterpart of our universe, from dark energy, which represents the remaining quantized pure cosmic energies. It also establishes the relationship between the depletion of existential quanta and the evolution of cosmic expansion within its theoretical framework. This paper aims to announce this definition, identify its existential, energetic, and geometric principles, and present a clear conceptual structure that distinguishes dark energy from vacuum energy, while establishing a pathway for its mathematical and physical formulation and the testing of its predictions.
