1. Introduction
The unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity remains a foundational pursuit in theoretical physics [
29]. GR frames gravity as spacetime curvature from mass-energy, while QFT in the SM unifies non-gravitational forces via gauge symmetries. Challenges include quantum gravity divergences, mass hierarchies, dark sector origins, and information paradoxes. Multi-messenger data—from LIGO/Virgo waves to IceCube neutrinos—highlight needs for linking macro- and micro-scales, potentially through transient fluctuations mediating curvature [

32].
Conventional models like string theory, loop quantum gravity (LQG), and grand unified theories (GUTs) provide mathematical rigor but face empirical hurdles: string theory’s vast landscape of vacua lacks predictive uniqueness, GUTs predict unobserved proton decays, and LQG struggles with semiclassical limits. Recent CMB data from Planck and Hubble tension measurements (
) highlight limitations in
CDM, particularly regarding dark components and early universe phase transitions [

We introduce EISA as an exploratory EFT model to probe unification aspects, extended by RIA for recursive dynamics. EISA’s -graded triple superalgebra over encodes SM symmetries, gravitational norms, and vacuum fluctuations. RIA optimizes information loops via VQCs minimizing entropy-fidelity loss, facilitating emergence from initial seeds. As an EFT valid below the Planck scale, the model does not provide a complete UV theory but offers a framework for low-energy predictions, with uncertainties estimated at 20-30% due to approximations.
Transient dynamics—Planck-scale virtual pairs—are coupled to a scalar in a modified Dirac equation, potentially contributing to curvature sourcing and phase transitions that branch irreps for hierarchies and non-local effects.
Four PyTorch simulations evaluate the model: c1b.py achieves entropy reduction to and fidelity up to 0.95. c2a.py predicts GW frequencies Hz in original configurations and explored to Hz, with curvature std . c3a1.py computes hierarchies and constants with <1% CODATA error. c4a.py explores Hubble tension via ODE integration.
EISA-RIA proposes fractal masses , CMB deviations, and anomalies, serving as an EFT below Planck, supported by simulations for potential multi-messenger tests. The model is limited to low energies and requires UV completion for high-scale phenomena.
2. EISA-RIA Framework
EISA is a -graded Lie superalgebra over , structured as , functioning as an EFT valid below the Planck scale. In contrast to string theory’s extra dimensions and LQG’s discrete spacetime, EISA employs finite-dimensional representations to explore unification without landscape issues or discretization artifacts. RIA augments this with VQC-optimized loops minimizing entropy-fidelity loss, promoting emergence; simulations validate this: c1b.py demonstrates entropy stabilization, c2a.py shows fluctuation feedback with GW frequencies in explored ranges, c3a1.py generates spectra, and c4a.py models evolution.
2.1. Algebraic Structure and Generators
EISA features bosonic generators in the even-grade sector and fermionic generators in the odd-grade sector, with dimensions motivated by scales (e.g., for octonionic-inspired , for ). The decomposition is:
- : .
- : Curvature norms resembling diffeomorphisms.
- : Transient terms .
The commutation relations are:
where structure constants
are antisymmetric. For an
subset in
, examples include
,
, etc., with antisymmetric permutations.
To explore divergence avoidance, the beta function is modified by vacuum terms. The standard one-loop beta function for a gauge theory is:
where
are quadratic Casimirs. The
term introduces contributions from vacuum diagrams, potentially making
finite at low energies, as explored with
in simulations. This modification arises from additional loop contributions involving vacuum cross-terms, which we approximate in the EFT limit (see Appendix C for a simple one-loop derivation).
For the information paradox, non-local effects from
-entanglement are modeled as:
facilitating information preservation via vacuum cross-products, consistent with semiclassical approximations. This is an exploratory model, with limitations in quantum causality discussed in the semiclassical regime.
Anticommutation relations are:
where
is symmetric; examples include
, tuned for hierarchies.
Mixed commutators are:
with
representation-dependent. Super-Jacobi identities hold, verified symbolically with SymPy for low dimensions and numerically for
matrices (see Appendix A), ensuring closure.
2.2. Representation and Norms
The Hilbert space features Fock-like irreps: fermionic Clifford norms , . Branching rules: irreps branch as for subset, yielding mass hierarchies via Casimir invariants.
Norms: masses in . Gravitational norms: . Vacuum: .
Consistency: unitary representations. c3a1.py computes via Casimirs and gradient , achieving <1% CODATA error for constants.

Appendix C. One-Loop Beta Function Derivation
In the EFT approximation, the vacuum term contributes to the beta function as follows. The standard gauge beta is modified by a vacuum Casimir-like term:
where
is estimated from transient loop diagrams, e.g.,
for dim=7 yielding
(analogous to scalar contributions in SU(n) models, similar to Lifshitz modifications in [
33]), leading to
for the scales considered. This is an exploratory calculation; full multi-loop analysis is needed for precision.
