Artian Geometry & Quantum Traction Theory

Abstract. Quantum Traction Theory (QTT) is a ground-up ontological reconstruction of classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and general relativity from a small set of foundational axioms. The framework introduces an absolute background clock distinct from laboratory time, a real-valued internal dial replacing the imaginary unit as a primitive with clear physical explanation, quantum capacity, and bundled existence saturating one modular circle at every world-cell address. From these primitives, the standard structures of contemporary physics are derived rather than postulated. Axioms. A1 — Two-clock cosmological geometry: an absolute background tick alongside the laboratory clock, related by a smooth positive…
