Abstract
Death of Reality presents the final movement of the Feldt–Higgs Universal Bridge (F-HUB) Theory, completing the informational cycle initiated in Birth of Spacetime and Life of the Cosmos. It extends the F-HUB framework to describe the phenomenon of de-collapse: the dissolution of coherent structure when observation ceases and informational stability fails. Within this formulation, reality is not destroyed but gradually unravels as organised light returns to the quantum potential. Building on Frequency of Real-Time Actualisation via Metastable Entropy (FRAME) and Informational Entropic Gravity (IEG), this paper models death as a recursive reversal of collapse governed by exponential decay laws for mass, coherence, curvature, and entropy. These processes are defined by the observer-interface coupling (Λₒ), whose viability determines whether quantum information remains classically resolved. When Λₒ < 1, coherence fails and form returns to potential. A worked example demonstrates how the dimensionless parameter εₒ (expressing coherence, entropy gradient, and decoherence resistance) could be estimated experimentally in optical or biological systems. The resulting formulation renders collapse failure empirically tractable and conceptually unites quantum, relativistic, and informational domains. Death of Reality therefore establishes F-HUB as a complete informational cosmology linking observation, entropy, and spacetime within a single recursive process: birth as emergence, life as stabilisation, and death as the return of light to its source.

Title
Informational Entropic Gravity (IEG): Deriving G from the Informational Basis of Spacetime within the F-HUB Framework
Description
This paper proposes Informational Entropic Gravity (IEG), a new derivation of Newton’s gravitational constant G grounded in the Feldt-Higgs Universal Bridge (F–HUB) framework. Rather than treating gravity as fundamental, IEG interprets spacetime curvature as the statistical equilibrium of structured quantum information. By combining entropy-information correspon- dences, holographic boundary conditions, and the Higgs-informational coupling, G is recovered in closed form from known constants without circular assumptions. This informational route unifies entropy, mass, and curvature into a single basis, reframing gravity as an emergent consequence of informational geometry. The result is a dimensionally consistent, testable law that challenges dark placeholders and restores explanatory power to the informational paradigm. If correct, IEG not only situates G within the same architecture as mass and entropy but also signals that gravity itself is evidence of the universe’s informational foundation. Gravity emerges not as a fundamental force but as a statistical equilibrium of structured information.

Frequency of Real-Time Actualisation via Metastable Entropy (FRAME) A Collapse-Based Interpretation of the Speed of Light as the Universal Refresh Rate of Classical Reality
Description
We propose a radical reinterpretation of the speed of light, c, not as the mere propagation speed of photons but as the maximum informational refresh rate of objective reality. This insight forms the foundation of the Frequency of Real-Time Actualisation via Metastable Entropy (FRAME1) model, which describes reality not as a continuous flow but as a sequence of discrete collapse events that render spacetime frame by frame. In this framework, where ΨC denotes the universal quantum informational field and Λ o represents the stabilising observer interface, conscious observation actively collapses quantum potential into classical spacetime structure. FRAME reveals c as the upper limit of decoherence tempo, the fastest rate at which reality can transition from probabilistic potential to rendered form. Beyond offering a conceptual synthesis, this reframing links relativity, quantum mechanics, and perception under a single informational principle, providing a novel lens through which constants acquire meaning.

Birth of Spacetime: The Feldt-Higgs Universal Bridge (F-HUB) Theory, Part One - A Universal Informational Framework for Mass, Gravity and Entropy
Description
or over a century, physics has been divided between two dominant theories: General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. While both are highly successful, they remain fundamentally disconnected. To address this, the Feldt-Higgs Universal Bridge (F-HUB) introduces a new paradigm. Specifically, it proposes that mass, gravity, and spacetime are not fundamental properties, but instead emerge from structured quantum information. This model draws upon the Holographic Principle, black hole thermodynamics, and quantum information theory. As a result, F-HUB offers a cohesive framework in which mass arises from quantum energy stabilised by information, and gravity becomes an entropic effect—rather than a fundamental force. Moreover, the master equation derived from this model is both dimensionally consistent and thermodynamically grounded. Crucially, it is also testable, offering new experimental pathways that challenge the need for dark matter and dark energy.

Life of the Cosmos: The Feldt-Higgs Universal Bridge (F-HUB) Theory, Part Two -Observation, Information, and the Expanding Universe
Description
Life of the Cosmos extends the Feldt-Higgs Universal Bridge (F-HUB) framework by proposing that the accelerating expansion of the universe arises from the cumulative impact of conscious observation. Life advances the hypothesis that observation itself stabilises reality and drives cosmological growth. Each act of conscious measurement collapses quantum wavefunctions and irreversibly encodes information into spacetime, requiring expansion to accommodate the increasing informational load. The model suggests that spacetime behaves more classically in regions of high observational density and more quantum-like in low-observation zones. It provides testable predictions, including redshift anomalies linked to under-observed regions and prolonged coherence in deep space. The optimised Life Equation demonstrates improved empirical alignment, achieving a reduced χ² of 0.62 compared to 1.03 for ΛCDM. This framework challenges prevailing interpretations of dark energy and positions consciousness as a fundamental driver of physical reality.
