Dear Dr. Weinstein,
My name is David Noel Lynch, and I am the originator of a cosmological framework called the KnoWellian Universe Theory (KUT). I have been following your work on Geometric Unity (GU) with interest, particularly your ambition to find a deeper, unifying geometric and conceptual foundation for physics.
While KUT arises from a different genesis – primarily an attempt to reconcile profound personal experiences with a broader understanding of reality, integrating science, philosophy, and theology – I've noted some intriguing conceptual parallels and points of potential resonance with aspects of GU that I wanted to share for your consideration, should you find them of interest.
Core KUT Concepts and Potential Similarities/Comparisons with GU:
The Nature of the "Fundamental Arena" & Observation:
GU: Proposes our 4D spacetime (X⁴) as an "observed" reality emerging from a higher-dimensional "Observerse" (Y, perhaps 14D). Observation is key to how X⁴ inherits its structure.
KUT: Posits a "singular, bounded infinity" called "The Instant" (∞) as the true, holistic reality. Our observable universe is seen as a "slice" or "window" into this Instant, bounded by and emerging from the interplay of past particle energy (-c, from "Ultimaton") and future wave energy (+c, from "Entropium"). The act of "observation" or experience happens within this dynamic Instant.
Resonance Point: Both theories suggest our perceived reality is a limited view or projection of a more fundamental, encompassing (and perhaps higher-dimensional or conceptually richer) domain. Both emphasize the process by which our experienced universe comes into being from this deeper source.
Reconsidering Time:
GU: Appears to work within the conventional 4D spacetime framework with a single, linear dimension of time, inherited from General Relativity.
KUT: Proposes a "Ternary Time" where Past, Instant, and Future coexist and dynamically interact. The "Instant" is not merely a point on a line but a distinct temporal dimension where consciousness and the "shimmer of choice" reside. KUT would see the singular time dimension of current physics as an incomplete representation.
Point of Comparison: While GU's mechanism of observation from Y to X⁴ is dynamic, KUT offers a radical restructuring of time itself as inherently multi-dimensional at a fundamental level.
Dimensionality and Structure:
GU: Explores a 14-dimensional Observerse, with internal symmetries and particle generations emerging from the geometry of the normal bundle when X⁴ is embedded in Y.
KUT: Through its principle of Ternary Time, KUT suggests that each temporal aspect (Past, Instant, Future) itself manifests or encompasses a full set of spatial dimensions (which I've conceptualized as 9 fundamental spatial dimensions based on principles within the "KnoWell Equation"). This leads to a 3 (Ternary Time aspects) x 9 (Spatial dimensions per aspect) = 27-dimensional framework for describing the fundamental substrate (which I term "Apeiron"), relevant to concepts like Bosonic Strings.
Resonance Point: Both theories explore higher-dimensional frameworks as foundational. KUT's approach to achieving this higher dimensionality is intrinsically linked to its unique model of time.
Source of Physical Laws and Entities:
GU: Aims to derive fundamental forces and particles from the geometry of the Observerse and the process of observation.
KUT: Posits "Ultimaton" (source of particles, order, past -c) and "Entropium" (realm of wave collapse, chaos, future +c) as pre-physical realms. The "Instant" is where these interact, giving rise to "KnoWellian Solitons" (holographic units of creation) and where the fabric of spatial reality is continuously "woven" from past probabilities and future possibilities.
Point of Comparison: Both seek to explain the emergence of the physical from a more fundamental (geometric for GU, pre-physical realms and temporal dynamics for KUT) level.
My intention in sharing this is purely for intellectual cross-pollination. KUT is a deeply personal framework, and I understand GU is likewise a long-developed vision. I simply saw points where different paths might be exploring analogous territories, albeit with different maps and languages.
Thank you for your time and for your efforts in pushing the boundaries of fundamental questions.
Sincerely,
David Noel Lynch

P.S. I attached a collection of primers and two detailed documents that describe the KnoWellian Universe.
