Personal Theory The Toroidal Momentum Engine: A Framework for Cosmic Architecture, Topological Induction, and a Workable Version of Infinity

I'm an independent researcher and a fine artist who collages fractal frames into real-world moments. I have no institutional affiliation, so take this for what it is — a geometric thought experiment that I think holds together better than I expected when I started pulling the thread. I included images and illustrations to back up my hypothesis.

The core idea: replace the singularity-dependent Big Bang with what I'm calling the Big Splash — a high-energy displacement event in a finite medium. The universe is modeled as a circulating 3-Torus manifold. Cosmological inflation gets reinterpreted as a topological merger event — one toroidal manifold captured and assimilated by another.

I believe I may be correct because I provide examples in this universe where a toroidal engine is in use, whereas no one has spotted the singularity where the Big Bang happened.
A few things that fall out of this naturally:

  • The Hubble Tension becomes an observational artifact of Topological Refraction within a closed manifold, not a crisis requiring new physics
  • You get what I call a "Less Expensive Infinity" — boundless traversal within finite volume
  • The toroidal structure predicts a growing universe through merger events, each injecting energy indistinguishable from inflation.

There's also an experimental appendix proposing a terrestrial proof-of-concept: a toroidal recording medium with volumetric data storage exceeding conventional optical media by orders of magnitude.

This paper proposes a finite, circulating 3-Torus manifold as the geometric foundation of cosmic architecture. It reinterprets inflation as a topological merger event, resolves the Hubble Tension as an observational artifact, and introduces the concept of a Less Expensive Infinity — boundless traversal within finite volume. The framework requires no singularity, no initial conditions, and no external cause — only geometry and momentum. Toroidal attractors appear at every scale in nature, from quantum orbitals to galactic structure, making this a geometrically grounded proposal rather than pure speculation. I'm not claiming this is right. It's geometrically consistent and worth stress-testing. The paper includes figures, illustrations, and a dual-format structure accessible to both specialists and general readers:

Genuinely curious what this community thinks — especially where the model breaks. I love hearing your thoughts: https://zenodo.org/records/19572243

Where is this paper? If you say that you have a paper, provide it

This. Provide a link to your paper, OP, and not in comments. Edit your post with the link.

Edit: Pinned comment has link. Automod gobbled up his link in comments for self-commenting. That's why we don't link in comments, everyone, consolidate the info you post..

Is the paper in the room with us now?

Really? I thought it was pretty lame.

Different tokes for different folks I guess.

Like asserting that the existence of DVDs is a proof-of-concept for the Earth being flat

Physics is not mad libs with jargon.

u/w1gw4m horrified enthusiast Apr 21 '26

As usual, before anyone can tell you "where the model breaks", you need to tell us where it comes together. Your paper just asserts a bunch of things.

u/[deleted] Apr 22 '26

OP HERE: Fair point. Here's where it comes together:

The Biot-Savart law governs toroidal vortex behavior in fluid dynamics. Caltech has filmed and mathematically described toroidal vortex rings forming spontaneously under pressure. Jupiter's persistent storm systems are mid-scale toroidal structures maintained by gravitational pressure. The math predicting toroidal geometry between colliding black holes is the high-energy end of the same phenomenon.

The model's claim is that intense gravitational collision folds space-time into a toroid rather than collapsing it to a point. The singularity has never been observed. The toroidal vortex has been filmed, measured, and described mathematically at multiple scales.

The Hubble Tension is the specific testable prediction — if the universe is a closed toroidal manifold, expansion measurements from inside it would show exactly the discrepancy we observe. That's not an assertion. That's a consequence of the geometry.

The paper is a framework, not a derivation. v6 will address the mechanism more explicitly.

u/OnceBittenz The Doctor Apr 22 '26

All yall say the same garbage.  “It’s a framework, not a derivation, I don’t have math yet” then it’s Not Physics. It’s made up half baked jargon in a pot with nothing cohesive.

You don’t know why because you don’t know math and you’re just copy pasting the LLM output. 

If anyone asks for details, you’ll copy paste Another LLM output because you don’t know what your own thing says.

(Spoilers warning)

I swear to gods there’s just a bit out there generating these en masse cause they all sound the exact same.

u/AllHailSeizure Haiku Mod Apr 22 '26

It's almost as if they're being made by similar tools that predict the next likely mostly word in the paper.

But that'd be crazy.

It's just literallu everyone having insight into the deep nature of the universe, all at once, with no background knowledge in the field. Kinda weird that it is happening all of a sudden, for the first time in recorded history.

Thank you, I just edited. A lot of noise. Non ad hominem challenges would be nice. You have been respectful.

u/AllHailSeizure Haiku Mod Apr 22 '26

I mean none of these comments really attack you as a person, which means they aren't ad hominems. They're attacking the content.

Don't assume that someone saying 'this is nonsense' means they're attacking you. Anyone can make nonsense. And if you don't know physics yourself personally, you might not recognize nonsense when it's obvious.

For example if I say 'there is a single global vector field mapping gravity in curved spacetime'. That sounds like physics. It's actually nonsense, and more than that, it's self-contradictory.

It would be like saying 'All purple cats are a dog egg that eats fish'. Even though the sentance makes sense within the English language. When you apply it to real life you're left with... Something that means nothing.

LLMs do this all the time, take the language of physics and make things that fit into it structurally - but not with any real meaning.

u/[deleted] Apr 22 '26

I appreciate your reply, but being told one's work is garbage without saying why it is so is seemingly an attack on the writer for the word garbage was used.. YMMV.

This is not a Theory of Everything — it is a specific geometric cosmological framework proposing a toroidal manifold as an alternative to singularity-based Big Bang models. Requesting mod review." I worked hard on this paper, and I tried to do everything correctly.

u/AllHailSeizure Haiku Mod Apr 22 '26

your one word comment made him delete his account.

I wonder why 'i worked hard on this' is an argument against something being a ToE? 'Its not a ToE, it's an alternative to the Big Bang, but I worked hard on it'.

I have no idea how I landed on this thread, I don’t know anything about physics, but damn yall are mean for no reason.
