Entanglement entropy gradients define zones of emergent causality and curvature.
Nonlocal correlations between field excitations provide scaffolding for phase coherence, leading to geometric emergence.
Local curvature and energy density co-develop with entangled phase-locking, simulating proto-spacetime behavior in a controllable platform.
In this sense, locality itself becomes an emergent property of coherently entangled systems.
3. Information Causality: A New Ordering Principle
Unlike traditional relativistic causality (lightcones), information causality provides a more general constraint for emergent systems:
Causal structure is redefined by the ability of one region to inform another---not just via signal propagation, but via entangled state coherence.
Blink excitations create localized bursts of information flow, whose influence spreads nonlinearly, building causal connectivity dynamically.
This supports a causality lattice, where temporal directionality arises from informational asymmetries, rather than pre-imposed time.
Thus, the Blink Universe model offers a bottom-up mechanism for the emergence of spacetime causal structure---an idea aligned with causal set theory and tensor network models.
4. From Spin-Lattice Dynamics to Metric Signatures
By modeling nonlinear information fields on spin or magnon lattices, we gain:
A platform for quantum-classical transition, where microscopic fluctuations (magnons, phonons) lead to macroscopic patterns (geometry, curvature).
A mapping from entanglement patterns phase defects curvature spikes, mimicking gravitational wells or cosmic domain structures.
Emergent behavior that mimics a metric tensor, shaped by information gradients and nonlinear phase modulations.
These processes offer insight into how geometry might arise naturally, not from spacetime axioms, but from field-theoretic computation.
5. Reinterpreting Cosmological Questions
Within this framework, several deep cosmological questions can be re-posed:
This invites a radically different ontology, where the universe is a dynamic information network, evolving according to nonlinear coherence rules rather than fundamental spacetime constraints.
