Timeless Dual Equilibrium Cosmology (TDEC) v2.1 [WITHDRAWN]

Abstract

Timeless Dual Equilibrium Cosmology (TDEC) v2.1 [WITHDRAWN] WITHDRAWN AS A SCIENTIFIC CLAIM (August 2026). The central quantitative result of thispaper, that a CPT-conjugate mirror sector reproduces the observed dark-matter-to-baryon ratio,rests on an arithmetic error of roughly a factor of twenty three: Section 13.3 states thatxi^3 with xi = 0.6 gives a ratio of 4 to 6, whereas 0.6^3 = 0.216. Obtaining the observed ratiowould require a hotter mirror sector, which violates the dark-radiation bound by two orders ofmagnitude. The dark-radiation values quoted in Section 13.2 are also inconsistent with thepaper's own formula, and the interaction operator in Section 4.1 is assigned the wrong massdimension. Furthermore, the MCMC constraints reported in the appendices were supplied by an AIassistant during manuscript preparation and were never independently computed or verified; theyhave no evidential basis and should not be cited. A full erratum is attached. The record isretained rather than deleted so that the errors and their correction remain traceable.
