Dynamical Entropic Redshift Theory (DERT): A Thermodynamic Alternative to Cosmological Expansion

Abstract

English:This work introduces the Dynamical Entropic Redshift Theory (DERT), a theoretical framework in which cosmological redshift arises from cumulative entropic dissipation of photons interacting with a structured quantum vacuum. Instead of interpreting redshift as a consequence of metric expansion, DERT proposes an emergent thermodynamic mechanism governed by an effective entropic action. The theory reproduces the FLRW limit in homogeneous universes and offers a natural explanation for several observational anomalies, including early massive galaxies detected by JWST and the Hubble tension. The formalism is developed through a variational principle incorporating a covariant entropic tensor, and several falsifiable observational predictions are proposed using data from JWST, Euclid, DESI, and SKA. Français :Ce travail présente la Théorie du Redshift Entropique Dynamique (DERT), un cadre théorique dans lequel le décalage cosmologique des photons résulte d'une dissipation entropique cumulative dans un vide quantique structuré. Plutôt qu’un effet d’expansion métrique, la DERT propose un mécanisme thermodynamique émergent gouverné par une action entropique effective. La théorie reproduit les prédictions FLRW en univers homogène et offre un cadre naturel pour interpréter certaines anomalies observationnelles récentes, notamment les galaxies massives à très haut redshift détectées par JWST et la tension sur la constante de Hubble. Le formalisme s’appuie sur un principe variationnel intégrant un tenseur entropique covariant, et propose plusieurs prédictions observationnelles falsifiables basées sur les données de JWST, Euclid, DESI et SKA.
