Explaining Galactic Dynamics by a Mechanism Driven by the Multiverse Meta-Field

We propose a paradigm shift in the understanding of dark matter. Rather than being an unknown particle, we demonstrate that the observed phenomenology of dark matter emerges naturally as an emergent gravitational phenomenon caused by the interaction between visible matter and a cosmic scalar field, the meta-field (Φ). This field is posited to define the fundamental energy tiers of a quantized multiverse. From an action principle featuring a non-minimal coupling ( ξR|Φ|^2) between the meta-field and spacetime curvature, we derive a modified Einstein equation. Its weak-field limit reveals that the interaction between visible matter and the meta-field sources an effective dark matter density: ρ_"DM" (r)=(16πGξv_0 )δΦ(r) ρ_"visible" (r), where δΦ is the meta-field perturbation. This relation predicts, without fine-tuning: The complete suppression of the dark matter effect in galactic centers due to the vanishing of the field perturbation (δΦ→0) in high-curvature regions; The strict absence of dark galaxies, as ρ_"DM" →0 where ρ_"visible" →0; and a mass-dependent gravitational coupling G_"eff" , offering a unified solution to the observed paucity of dwarf galaxies and the core-cusp problem, which is resolved by the absence of any dark matter contribution to the central potential. Our model renders particle-based dark matter unnecessary, replacing it with a novel interaction between known matter and the multiverse’s architecture, testable with next-generation astronomical surveys. This includes the definitive prediction that precise orbital measurements in galactic centers (e.g., of the S-stars around Sagittarius A*) will find no gravitational anomaly attributable to dark matter.
