Geometric Unification of Gravity and Gauge Fields through Torsion

For decades, scientists have tried to unite gravity with quantum forces, but leading theories like string theory and supersymmetry often rely on complex extra dimensions that make physical interpretation difficult¹,². Recent research in geometric field theory suggests that ordinary four-dimensional spacetime may hold untapped potential for a simpler solution³,⁴. Here we show that shifts in a scalar field can twist spacetime in a specific geometric way, introducing what’s known as torsion. This twist helps recreate the force patterns seen in particle physics⁵ and adds new behaviors to gravity⁶,⁷, without needing to expand the number of dimensions. Our approach resolves key mathematical issues by linking curvature to clear, countable geometric features. These insights lead to measurable predictions, such as shifts in gravitational wave patterns⁸, changes in black hole entropy⁹,¹⁰, and detectable effects in particle collisions¹¹,¹². Altogether, this framework shows that subtle twists in space itself could be the missing piece that connects quantum fields and gravity, offering a more unified and testable vision of the universe.
