Mathematician Offers New Solution to a Fundamental Cosmic Paradox

A new study suggests gravity may emerge from spacetime information and entropy.

The universe’s total entropy can rise even as entropy per unit volume falls, helping explain cosmic structure formation.

The theory also predicts a time-varying dark energy term and reduces to general relativity in weak-field limits.

Published in Physical Review D by Ginestra Bianconi of Queen Mary University of London, the work offers a testable quantum-gravity framework.
