Chrono-Quantum Field Theory: Time as a Fundamental Wave and Space as Quantum Amplitude

We propose a Chrono-Quantum Field Theory framework in which time is a complex scalar wave with phase and frequency but without intrinsic amplitude, while three-dimensional quantized space furnishes the amplitude through a spatial-amplitude operator. Writing t = iτ, the composite physical field Φ(x, τ) = A(x)Ψt(x, τ) intertwines an imaginary-time oscillation with a real spatial amplitude lattice. From a minimal postulate set we derive a covariant field equation, an effective proper-time law consistent with local Lorentz invariance, and a catalogue of falsifiable predictions. We then present a complete comparison with Einstein’s Special and General Relativity (SR/GR) across standard tests (time dilation, transverse Doppler, gravitational redshift, Shapiro delay, light bending, perihelion advance, frame dragging, binary pulsars, gravitational waves, GPS). Coarse-graining the temporal spectrum and spatial amplitude yields a positive effective vacuum term compatible with late-time acceleration (dark energy), while near-horizon behavior can be interpreted as a temporal-phase singularity. Finally, we outline a Chronodynamic Quantum Computer (CQC) that encodes information in temporal phase and uses the spatial lattice as amplitude memory, suggesting noise-shaping benefits and relativistic timing built-in. The paper closes with philosophical implications, discussion of limitations, and clearly targeted experimental pathways.
