| contents | <p>This paper explores a novel hypothesis: that the flavour structure of the Standard Model—including the observed pattern of fermion masses, mixing angles, and CP violation—may arise from the dynamics of an underlying informational scalar field, denoted I(x). Building on previous work positioning I(x) as a fundamental pre-geometric degree of freedom, this framework proposes that flavour is not an arbitrary feature of the Standard Model, but an emergent property shaped by the informational topology of early spacetime.</p> <p>The field I(x) interacts with Standard Model sectors via informationally weighted portal couplings, modulating Yukawa textures and mixing hierarchies without invoking new symmetries or arbitrary parameters. The paper connects deep questions in particle physics—such as the origin of mass and flavour—to emerging ideas in quantum gravity and information-based field theory, presenting a unified picture where flavour is not just a puzzle, but a diagnostic of spacetime's informational substrate.</p> |
