Primordial Spacetime Deformations as Seeds of Supermassive Black Holes and Early Galaxy Formation

Recent observations by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have revealed the presence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with masses above 10^8 solar masses at redshifts greater than 10, challenging standard models of structure formation. Classical scenarios relying on stellar progenitors, Eddington-limited accretion, or direct-collapse gas clouds struggle to account for the required masses and formation timescales. In this work, we propose a novel framework in which SMBHs arise not from baryonic collapse but from primordial spacetime deformations produced independently of matter. We model spacetime as a set of discrete, quasi-elastic layers whose compression encodes curvature. Interactions between adjacent or higher-dimensional spacetime regions can induce localized over-compression, generating deep curvature wells that act as black-hole-like structures before the appearance of the first stars. These primordial deformations naturally behave as gravitational seeds that drive early galaxy formation. We derive the conditions under which such defects form, show their consistency with a quantized-curvature limit analogous to the Loop Quantum Gravity bounce, and outline observational signatures that distinguish this mechanism from conventional black hole formation pathways. This model provides a coherent explanation for the anomalously massive SMBHs in the early universe and suggests new avenues for understanding the relationship between cosmology, quantum gravity, and the emergence of large-scale structure.
