The Confinement Scale from the Electron Mass and the Fine-Structure Constant: Mutual Entanglement as Channelized Strain

The scale of QCD confinement is an input to the Standard Model, traceable to the measured strong coupling and unrelated to any electromagnetic quantity. This paper derives it from the electron mass and the fine-structure constant alone, σ=N_ch m_e^2 c^3/(ħα^2), where N_ch is an i...

Induced Gravity at the Arithmetic Interface: A Conditional Derivation of Newton's Constant

Two questions motivate this paper: why does mass curve spacetime, and why is gravity so weak? In the dual-domain ontology, spacetime is emergent, so gravity must be induced. Applying the one-loop induced-gravity mechanism to the DDC interface yields the Einstein equations with Ne...

The Fine‑Structure Constant as Interface Geometry

This paper presents a geometric and number-theoretic derivation of the fine-structure constant α within the Dual-Domain Cosmology (DDC) framework. In this ontology, stable matter emerges from discrete three-quanta anchors in an atemporal Quantum Domain (QD) that project into the...
