Temporal Flow Physics
Temporal Flow Physics John Gavel First Principles of Temporal Flow Physics (TFP) Temporal Flow Physics (TFP) proposes that all physical phenomena—space, particles, energy, and forces—emerge from a discrete set of fundamental one-dimensional temporal flows. These flows evolve causally in time, and all familiar structures of physics are secondary to this foundation. The following five first principles define the axiomatic core of TFP and provide the foundation for the formal developments of Unit -1. Principle 1: Time and Flows Are Fundamental Statement: Time is the only fundamental dimension, and reality consists of discrete, one-dimensional temporal flows F_i(t), indexed by node i, each evolving at a local rate: u_i(t) = [F_i(t + Δt) - F_i(t)] / Δt, with Δt approximately equal to the Planck time. Justification: This merges the principles of temporal fundamentality and flow-based ontology. The temporal flow F_i(t) is the primitive ontological entity of the theory, with no pr...
