Implications of a Closed Universe

[primpre]

This paper pertains to the interval between a near singularity and the onset of the putative Big Bang, and subsequent developments. A hypothetical emergent bounded universe, governed by a single overarching precept (P1) that reality cannot be unbound, is followed in its evolution through a sequence of causal feedback loops involving sustained cosmic energy generation, from a cold point-presence to a close fit analogue of a classic unbound hot Big Bang universe. P1 theory embraces the Standard Model and presents the curvature of space, and time as quantum-based effects. Comparison of a range of counterpart features from the two theories suggests that a P1 universe may meet the criteria for a grand unified theory, and that we might be living in such a universe.

Looking forward to your questions and views.

I downloaded your article. I am pursuing an alternative cosmology project and have long tried, without the necessary skills, to explain the tachyon (whose presence is demonstrated by quantum entanglement). I gave up because the problems of a cosmological model are enormous, and the tachyon is the last among them. But one day I will resume seeking a connection with quantum field theory.

Welcome to the forum!

Before attempting to read this paper, I have a question which I need to ask to enable me to fix the background.

It would seem to me, that any time interval between a supposed singularity and the "commencement" of a supposed Big Bang is right bang in the area between Science and Metaphysics. Would you agree? . . . . . . and what is your reaction to this?

This interested me, but you said nothing for me to 'get a grip'. So a bit of research re tachyons and entanglement is called for. Apologies for the diversion primpre.
.... I cannot find any connection except in sci-Fi

What a welcome! But thank you.
I can't speak for metaphysics, but thank you for pointing that out. If I understand you correctly, I can only say that Big Bang theory does not presume that cosmic inflation starts from a singularity. The size of the universe at the time of inflation has been roughly presented as anywhere from a golf ball to small grapefruit. I assume that those general estimates derive from the point where surface to volume ratio passes through 1 at 3 cm radius. That leaves a lot of room for the first phase phase to develop. Does that address your concern?

Well, Claudio, that is quite a project, especially considering that we haven't even found a graviton yet. Good luck with it, though.

I can't speak for metaphysics, but thank you for pointing that out. If I understand you correctly, I can only say that Big Bang theory does not presume that cosmic inflation starts directly from a singularity. The size of the universe at the time of inflation has been roughly presented as anywhere from a golf ball to small grapefruit. I assume that those general estimates derive from the point where surface to volume ratio passes through 1 at 3 cm radius. That leaves a lot of room for the first phase phase to develop.

Just Google 'cosmic inflation':

Cosmic inflation is the theory that the universe expanded rapidly and exponentially in its first moments

The period between a singularity and cosmic inflation is incredibly short, estimated to be around 10^-36 to 10^-32 seconds

Actually a P1 universe is always in a state of inflation on a hyperbolic curve, as explained in the text. The time frame of expansion is much slower though, but it is still exponential. It may not assume the expansion rate of a classic BB universe until somewhere around nucleosynthesis.
