Abstract
We report the discovery of discrete spacetime expansion events preceding recombination, revealed through quantum phase transitions in CMB E-mode polarization at ℓ = 1076, 1706, 2336 with overwhelming significance (>>5σ). These transitions illuminate pre-existing computational topology at scales 17,500-38,000 pc with expansion factors 2.2-3.1×, driven by scale-dependent vacuum energy variations.
The expansion mechanism emerges from quantum information constraints: ρ_Λ/ρ_P = (γ × t_P)² × S_coh/|S_decoh|, where the universal quantum-thermodynamic entropy partition ratio S_coh/|S_decoh| ≈ 2.257 governs quantum-to-classical transitions. This reveals the cosmological "constant" is time-dependent: Λ_eff(z) ∝ H(z)²/[ln H(z)]². The complete framework—incorporating horizon information processing, spherical geometry (4π steradians), and historical expansion topology from universe instantiation—predicts Λ₀ = 1.10×10⁻⁵² m⁻² from zero free parameters, achieving exact match with observations when all five expansion events from instantiation are included.
This transforms the cosmological constant problem from 120 orders of magnitude (10¹²² QFT over-prediction) to zero discrepancy. The same QTEP ratio manifests independently in ATLAS momentum distributions (2.28±0.31) and ALPHA-g antimatter gravity (0.75±0.29 g), establishing universality across 20 orders of magnitude. CMB-S4 detection of predicted ℓ₄ and ℓ₅ transitions will complete experimental verification.
