Introduction
Abstract: This paper proposes a unified model where spacetime is composed of discrete units -Space Elementary Quanta (SEQ). (i)Time emerges from irreversible state transitions of the SEQ network, with each step corresponding to a calculable entropy(S=∏mᵢ, i∈N) from transformation matrices governing spatial changes. (ii)Crucially, matter itself is a manifestation of compressed space: SU(3) symmetry mediates local SEQ compression, storing energy as mass while stretching surrounding space to generate gravity. The Higgs field stabilizes compressed regions via symmetry breaking, acting as a "quantum lock". (iii)This model explains why time slows near massive objects—local compressed SEQ network undergo fewer state transitions frequency. (iv)The model makes testable predictions, including a chiral asymmetry in electron-positron magnetic moments due to their distinct coupling to the fixed-spin SEQ ground state. (v)It also resolves black hole singularities by imposing an upper limit on SEQ tension. (vi) By treating spacetime as a dynamic quantum-elastic network, this framework bridges general relativity, quantum field theory, and thermodynamics.

Introduction: The mystery of time has long fascinated humanity. This paper attempts to provide a conceptual framework for understanding the nature of time, offering explanations for both special relativistic effects (time dilation and length contraction) and general relativistic gravitational time dilation at a mechanistic level. While general relativity has given us fundamental insights into the mass-gravity relationship, the unification with quantum theory continues to challenge those seeking deeper understanding of our universe. This work presents an alternative perspective to comprehend the connection between mass and gravity, as well as the fabric of space itself. Though primarily conceptual in nature, this framework remains consistent with most observed phenomena. We sincerely welcome readers’ feedback and constructive criticism to help refine and improve these ideas.
