My new paper, "The Axiomatic Fallacy..." (linked above), lays out the full technical argument. But the consequences of this idea—that pi is not a number but a dynamic scalar field, \Pi(x^\mu), coupled to geometry—are so profound that they rewrite our entire interpretation of reality.
Here, I want to outline what this "honest" universe actually looks like.
1. Consequence for Relativity: Spacetime as a Living Organism
The "Fraudulent" Interpretation (Einstein):
John Wheeler famously summarized General Relativity: "Spacetime tells matter how to move; matter tells spacetime how to curve." This is a two-participant dance. But the rules of the dance—the coupling constant 8\pi_0 G—are fixed. The language they speak is immutable.
The "Honest" Interpretation (My Thesis):
The dance is far more complex. It is a three-part organic system:
Spacetime tells matter how to move.
Matter tells spacetime how to curve.
And the curvature (the state of spacetime) tells the "language" (the $\Pi(x^\mu)$ field) how to change.
The "language" itself—the coupling constant 8\Pi G—is dynamic.
Implication (The "Death" of Physics in a Black Hole):
In Einstein's "fraudulent" model, a singularity is a region of extreme curvature, but the laws of physics (including 8\pi_0 G) are presupposed to hold all the way down.
In the "honest" model, a black hole is far more terrifying. As curvature increases, the $\Pi$-field (the $\pi$-Quotient) "extinguishes" and $\Pi(x^\mu) \to 0$.
If \Pi(x^\mu) \to 0, then the coupling constant \frac{8 \Pi(x^\mu) G}{c^4} \to 0.
This means the connection between matter and geometry is decoupled. Matter ($T_{\mu\nu}$) stops "talking" to geometry ($G_{\mu\nu}$). The singularity is not just a "place" of infinite density; it is an "epistemological horizon" where the laws of physics themselves (the coupling between cause and effect) dissolve. It is the "silence" we discussed, made physical.
2. Consequence for Quantum Mechanics: Uncertainty Becomes Geometrodynamic
The "Fraudulent" Interpretation (Heisenberg/Schrödinger):
Quantum mechanics is built on the "fraud" of $\hbar = h / (2\pi_0)$. This establishes a universal, constant "floor" of uncertainty ($\Delta x \Delta p \ge \hbar/2$). The "pixelation" of reality is assumed to be the same in empty space as it is in the heart of a star.
The "Honest" Interpretation (My Thesis):
The Planck "constant" is no longer constant. It becomes a dynamic field: $\hbar(x^\mu) = h / (2\Pi(x^\mu))$.
The Uncertainty Principle is now a function of geometry:
Implication (The "Evaporation" of Quantum Reality):
In our near-flat space, $\Pi(x^\mu) \approx 3.14...$, and we recover the quantum mechanics we know.
But in a black hole, where extreme curvature makes $\Pi(x^\mu) \to 0$, the denominator of the uncertainty equation goes to zero.
This means $\Delta x \Delta p \to \infty$.
The Unification: This is the holy grail. The singularity of Relativity (infinite curvature) and the singularity of Quantum Mechanics (infinite uncertainty) are the same event. Both are the consequence of the $\Pi$-field "evaporating" to zero. Reality collapses into total indeterminacy. The "quantum foam" becomes a boiling ocean.
3. Consequence for Cosmology: Physical Laws are "Emergent," Not "Eternal"
The "Fraudulent" Interpretation (Standard Big Bang):
The standard model assumes the laws of physics (including $\pi_0$, $G$, $c$) are eternal. They existed "before" the Big Bang. The Friedmann equations (which use the "fraudulent" $8\pi_0 G$) describe an explosion governed by these fixed laws.
The "Honest" Interpretation (My Thesis):
The laws of physics are not eternal. They are emergent properties of the universe.
At the instant of the Big Bang, the universe was in a state of extreme, perhaps infinite, curvature. In that state, the Pi-field was not 3.14...; it was at (or near) zero. The laws we know did not exist.
Implication (The "Crystallization" of pi):
As the universe expanded and cooled (Inflation), the curvature decreased. The $\Pi$-field began to "calm down." Eventually, the universe cooled enough for the $\Pi$-field to "collapse" into its state of lowest energy (its vacuum expectation value). It "crystallized" into a constant value throughout space.
Interpretation: The value \pi_0 \approx 3.14... that we measure today is not a fundamental law. It is the "frozen" or "vacuum" value of a dynamic field (Pi) in our old, cold universe.
The "fraud" of Einstein (and Pythagoras, and us) is not a "lie." It is the natural consequence of living in a "frozen" universe. It is the "marble on the table" experiment at a cosmic scale. We have mistaken the "ice" (the constant pi_0 of our cold universe) for the "essence" (the dynamic $\Pi(x^\mu)$, the "water" of the primordial universe).
The "honest" physics I am proposing is, therefore, a physics of phase transition: the study of how the "laws" themselves (the $\Pi$-field) "freeze" and "melt" along with the universe.
