Empirical Predictions of The NavMesh Cosmology: Resolving the Hubble Tension and Quantizing Time Dilation via Spatial Latency

Open access0 citations

Abstract

We present four falsifiable empirical predictions of The NavMesh Cosmology, a parameter-free discrete spacetime framework. The model derives cosmic acceleration and spatial kinematics strictly from an inverse relation between the expansion rate and baryonic information density (H ∝ 1/√D), without invoking dark energy or particulate dark matter. We predict: (I) Inside the Boötes Void (D ≈ 0.2), the local Hubble rate will converge to a theoretical baseline of 166.3 km/s/Mpc. (II) The total observable baryonic mass will asymptotically converge to a maximum computational payload of 1.67 × 10⁵³ kg. (III) Time dilation measured by orbital optical clocks will exhibit quantized, step-wise anomalies at the threshold of a₀ = (c · H₀) / 2π. (IV) An extreme 8.6x spread in fundamental expansion rates between deep voids (D < 0.3) and dense clusters (D > 10), in stark contrast to the <10% variance expected in ΛCDM. These predictions are testable within the near term by upcoming missions and surveys such as DESI, Euclid, and ACES.
