Geometric Energy Mechanics (GEM): A Unified Framework
Stage 1 Dissemination Paper
Abstract
Geometric Energy Mechanics (GEM) introduces a unified framework that elegantly bridges classical and quantum mechanics through geometric constructs. By embedding core equations within fractal and cycloidal dynamics, GEM integrates vacuum fluctuations, energy coupling, and wave dynamics, and gives it an entirely new perspective. Through simple geometric constructions, GEM reinterprets foundational principles and equations, aligning them with observed physical laws while offering new predictive insights. This paper outlines the development of GEM, its core equations, and key simulation results, demonstrating its validity and utility in both quantum and classical contexts.
Introduction
The GEM framework begins with a straightforward geometric analogy: a ball rolling inside a larger sphere. This seemingly simple system provides a robust foundation for understanding quantum and classical mechanics. By shrinking this analogy to the quantum scale, GEM transitions from macroscopic mechanics to a 1-dimensional energy trajectory embedded in 3-dimensional space, preserving core geometric principles while accommodating quantum behavior.
1.1 Core Premise
As the ball rolls, nested mini-cycloids emerge:
Extrapolation to Quantum Scales
The analogy shrinks to describe 1D quantum trajectories embedded in 3D space.
Geometric Wavefunctions:
The particle's quantum state () combines transverse and longitudinal wave components:
Separation of Wavefunction Components ( and ):
- The statement emphasizes that the decomposition of into and , coupled via , aligns with quantum mechanics, where wavefunctions are inherently complex.
- This respects the mathematical structure of quantum states, where real and imaginary parts often correspond to distinct physical interactions or states (e.g., oscillatory behavior, phase relationships).
- This provides a theoretical basis for the separation, motivated by the dual nature of wave-particle behavior. While it doesn't specify experimental measurability, the geometric analogy (rolling motion and energy coupling) enhances conceptual clarity.
2. Coupling Term ():
- The coupling term naturally emerges from the interaction of transverse and longitudinal components within the geometric model. The premise uses the rolling motion analogy to illustrate energy exchange and coherence.
Revised GEM Equation and Energy Framework
The revised GEM energy equation integrates geometric dynamics, fractal feedback, and vacuum fluctuations, expanding the traditional Dirac formulation:
where:
- : Energy in transverse oscillations.
- : Energy in longitudinal oscillations.
- : Coupling term representing energy exchange between transverse and longitudinal waves.
- : Approximation term for vacuum fluctuations, employing Gaussian modulation to reflect localized intensity and decay over space and time, consistent with quantum field theoretical behavior.
This energy-based formulation complements the wavefunction representation in the reformulated Dirac equation:
where:
- : Mass-energy term.
- : Energy exchange term between transverse and longitudinal waves.
- : Modulation term for vacuum fluctuations, ensuring consistency with quantum field theory through Gaussian approximation.
2.2 Energy Conservation with Vacuum Contributions
The total energy conservation in GEM integrates vacuum fluctuation dynamics:
where:
- : Energy in transverse oscillations.
- : Energy in longitudinal oscillations.
- : Coupling term for wave interaction.
- : Vacuum fluctuation term, dynamically modulating energy exchange.
The vacuum term () reflects stochastic contributions from the Dirac sea and introduces localized corrections to wave evolution. Its Gaussian form ensures effects diminish with distance and time, aligning with quantum field theory predictions.

Refined GEM Equation
The refined GEM equation expands the foundational energy and wavefunction dynamics by incorporating additional terms to model vacuum fluctuations and spin-induced interactions. This extension provides a comprehensive geometric framework that aligns with quantum mechanical principles:

- : Represents the mass-energy term, encapsulating the rest energy of the particle.
