Subject: The Completed Paper: "A Ternary Time Gauge Theory..." (and a thank you)

Dear Dr. Silverberg,

I hope this message finds you well.

Following our previous correspondence, I am writing to share the completed, formalized version of the KnoWellian Universe cosmological framework. As you know from your own vital work on quantum-deterministic descriptions, the path to a new physical model is a long one.

Your paper, "At the speed of light," was a significant Lynchpin on my own journey, particularly in crystallizing the concept of stable structures like the KnoWellian Torus Knot. For that inspiration, I am sincerely grateful.

In collaboration with the AI model Gemini 2.5 Pro, I have now translated the (KUT) into a formal scientific paper intended for submission to the community via arXiv. We have titled it: "A Ternary Time Gauge Theory as a Unified Origin for Dark Energy, Dark Matter, and the CMB."

The paper builds upon the gauge theory of gravity work of Partanen & Tulkki, but introduces a single foundational postulate: the reconceptualization of time as a dynamic, ternary structure. From this axiom, we derive a framework that, we argue, naturally resolves the core puzzles of ΛCDM and makes a series of concrete, falsifiable predictions.

I wanted you to be among the first to see the finished work, both as a professional courtesy and as a genuine thank you for your encouragement.

I have attached the full paper A_Ternary_Time_Gauge.pdf. Of course, I know you are incredibly busy and I have no expectation of a detailed review. I am simply sharing the result of the process you helped to inspire.

With deepest respect and gratitude,

David Noel Lynch
