The Universe That Builds Itself: Why I Stopped Looking for Dark Matter

How the same two scalar fields that create particles at the femtometer scale drive cosmic structure formation through self-reinforcing feedback loops — and why dark matter may be unnecessary.

1.65 GeV: What the Vacuum Told Me About the Millennium Prize

The Clay Mathematics Institute offers one million dollars for a proof that the Yang-Mills mass gap exists. My paper predicts its value — 1.65 GeV — from the gluon condensate with zero free parameters, matching the lattice benchmark to 3.5%. Here is what the mass gap is, how I derived it, and what it means for the Millennium Problem.

Why I Believe the Vacuum Holds the Answer to Gravity

What if Newton's gravitational constant G is not a free parameter at all, but something the universe computes from the structure of the quantum vacuum? This is the question that led me from emergent gravity to the Yang-Mills mass gap — and to a prediction with zero free parameters.

The Wheeler-Feynman Connection: Why Gravity Might Be a Conversation Between Past and Future

In 1941, Wheeler and Feynman proposed that electromagnetic radiation travels both forward and backward in time. Decades later, I arrived independently at a parallel structure for gravity. The correspondence is striking — and the divergences are where the Ashebo Framework says something new.
