Resolution of the Strong CP Problem via Topological Vacuum Cancellation in the SV0 Theory of Everything (Preprint)

The Strong CP Problem—the puzzling absence of CP violation in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) despite the presence of a theoretically allowed \theta-term—remains one of the most significant unsolved problems in particle physics. The standard solution invokes a new pseudoscalar particle, the axion, which has yet to be detected. In this paper (Paper XXV of the SV0 series), we present a natural geometric resolution within the Signed-Volume (SV0) framework. We demonstrate that the QCD \theta-angle is dynamically driven to zero by the SV0 exchange law. The topological vacuum of QCD is identified with the two-sector volume constraint |V_A| + |V_B| = V_0. The CP-violating phase is proportional to the volume asymmetry (1-2x). As the universe evolves towards the symmetric attractor x=1/2, the effective \theta-angle dynamically relaxes to zero. This mechanism eliminates the need for axions and resolves the Strong CP Problem through the geometry of discrete Space Packets, providing a falsifiable prediction for future axion searches.

Abstract

The Strong CP Problem—the puzzling absence of CP violation in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) despite the presence of a theoretically allowed \theta-term—remains one of the most significant unsolved problems in particle physics. The standard solution invokes a new pseudoscalar particle, the axion, which has yet to be detected. In this paper (Paper XXV of the SV0 series), we present a natural geometric resolution within the Signed-Volume (SV0) framework. We demonstrate that the QCD \theta-angle is dynamically driven to zero by the SV0 exchange law. The topological vacuum of QCD is identified with the two-sector volume constraint |V_A| + |V_B| = V_0. The CP-violating phase is proportional to the volume asymmetry (1-2x). As the universe evolves towards the symmetric attractor x=1/2, the effective \theta-angle dynamically relaxes to zero. This mechanism eliminates the need for axions and resolves the Strong CP Problem through the geometry of discrete Space Packets, providing a falsifiable prediction for future axion searches.
