Temporal Gradient Theory (TGT)

Temporal Gradient Theory (TGT) is a forthcoming extension of the Temporal Strand framework, designed to model gravitational effects as drift through time-pressure gradients rather than curvature in space.

In contrast to general relativity, which describes gravity as the bending of spacetime, TGT proposes that inertial motion and gravitational acceleration arise from an object’s natural drift along differential flows of compressed time. This perspective aims to provide a more unified and intuitive model for both macroscopic gravity and relativistic redshift.

A New Foundation for Gravitational Modeling

TGT builds upon the principles of Temporal Strand Theory (TST), offering a refined view of how mass and energy influence time directly—producing gradients that affect motion, frame alignment, and redshift without invoking geometric warping of space.

Key research areas under development include:

  • Modeling inertial frame drift as a function of time-pressure
  • Reformulating gravitational redshift using temporal compression profiles
  • Exploring gravitational sensing via time-tension differentials
  • Introducing non-curvature-based dynamics in relativistic systems

Research in Progress

The formal paper on TGT is currently in development. Early models and visualizations are under review, with simulation frameworks and echo dynamics planned for integration.

Coming Soon

A preprint of the Temporal Gradient Theory will be released in an upcoming research update. If you’d like to be notified when the paper goes live, follow us on:
