Relax strict metric symmetry assumptions,
Introduce non-singular origin scenarios,
Accommodate scale-dependent or fractal structure,
Embed cosmology in a deeper informational or quantum gravitational framework.
Our proposed theory builds upon and transcends these previous efforts by unifying three distinct perspectives---Blink genesis, multilayered topology, and fractal geometry---within a single information-centric formalism. We argue that this integrative approach is not only consistent with current data but provides novel testable predictions for future observations.
I.3. Motivation for a Unified Paradigm Shift
Despite its empirical successes, the CDM model remains phenomenologically incomplete and theoretically unstable in the face of mounting observational tensions and foundational paradoxes. Attempts to resolve these issues via isolated extensions---whether inhomogeneous metrics, cyclic scenarios, or holographic conjectures---often yield piecemeal solutions, each addressing only a subset of anomalies. This fragmented approach suggests a deeper need: a paradigm shift toward an integrative cosmological framework rooted not in geometric extrapolations alone, but in informational dynamics, emergent topology, and nonlinear structure formation.
We propose such a shift through a composite cosmological architecture that synthesizes three novel concepts: Blink Universe, Multilayer Multiverse, and Fractal Universe. Each addresses a different tier of unresolved cosmological phenomena---origin, topology, and internal structure---while maintaining mathematical coherence and testable observational predictions.
1. Blink Universe: A Quantum Origin Without Singularity
The "Blink Universe" component is motivated by the need to resolve the singularity problem and the philosophical discomfort with a time-zero boundary condition in standard Big Bang cosmology. Rather than invoking an initial singularity or inflationary patch, we posit a non-singular origin via quantum tunneling from a pre-geometric or sub-spacetime regime. This process is described as a "blink", in which localized quantum fluctuations---akin to Wheeler's quantum foam---undergo probabilistic coherence, giving rise to spacetime regions.
This conception aligns with:
The Hartle--Hawking "no-boundary" proposal and Vilenkin's tunneling wavefunction,
Euclidean path integrals in semiclassical quantum cosmology,
Probabilistic emergence mechanisms in causal dynamical triangulations and spin foam models.
However, unlike models that yield a single universe from tunneling, the Blink Universe allows for a multiplicity of spatial-temporal nucleation events, forming the basis for a Multilayer Multiverse, each blink being a layer or "brane" in the composite cosmological structure.
2. Multilayer Multiverse: Topological Stratification of Cosmological Domains
While standard cosmology assumes a simply connected, globally homogeneous metric, large-scale anomalies and Hubble tension suggest that cosmic geometry may possess a stratified, layered topology. We extend this idea through a Multilayer Multiverse model in which spacetime consists of interconnected, anisotropic layers---each defined by slightly different vacuum densities, expansion rates, or curvature scalars.
Each layer:
