Entropic Reset: A Cyclic Framework for Universal Rebirth

By Mitchell D. McPhetridge

Abstract

This paper explores the concept of entropic reset, where a universe approaching thermodynamic death undergoes a gravitational-driven collapse that recycles energy and resets conditions for a new universal cycle. By integrating principles of thermodynamics, gravitational potential energy, and singularity mechanics, this model suggests that the “heat death” of the universe is not a terminal state but a transitional phase in an infinite recursive system. The framework posits that gravity serves as the ultimate recycler, transforming dispersed energy into heat and kinetic energy through collapse, culminating in a rebirth akin to a Big Bang.

1. Introduction

The fate of the universe has long been a topic of scientific inquiry. Prevailing theories suggest that the universe will end in “heat death,” a state of maximum entropy where no usable energy remains. This concept aligns with the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which states that entropy in an isolated system tends to increase over time. However, this model often neglects the persistence of gravitational forces, which could continue to operate even in a thermodynamically “dead” universe.

This paper introduces the concept of entropic reset, a cyclic model in which gravity transforms a dead universe into a fertile one. By collapsing matter and energy into singularities, gravity generates immense heat and energy, potentially initiating conditions for a new Big Bang.

2. The Dead Universe: Heat Death and Beyond

2.1 Heat Death

In a state of thermodynamic equilibrium, all energy disperses uniformly, and the universe becomes cold, dark, and static. Stars burn out, galaxies dissolve, and all matter reaches the background temperature of space. This is the theoretical “end” of the universe, where no work can be performed.

2.2 Persistence of Gravity

Unlike thermal or kinetic energy, gravity is not a form of energy that dissipates. It is a curvature of spacetime caused by mass and remains an active force even in a universe devoid of heat and light. As matter and energy become increasingly diffuse, gravity continues to act, pulling residual matter toward massive objects such as black holes.

3. The Role of Gravity in the Reset

3.1 Gravitational Collapse

As orbits decay over astronomical timescales, matter spirals inward, converting gravitational potential energy into heat and kinetic energy. This process is evident in the formation of stars and accretion disks, where collapsing matter releases energy.

In a dead universe, gravitational collapse would dominate, concentrating all remaining matter into singularities. These singularities accumulate immense heat and density, forming the precursors to a universal reset.

3.2 Conservation of Energy

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Even as the universe approaches maximum entropy, the total energy remains constant. Gravity ensures that dispersed energy is not lost but transformed, cycling through states of motion, heat, and potential energy.

4. The Reset Mechanism: From Collapse to Rebirth

4.1 Formation of a Singular State

As matter collapses into singularities, the density and heat within these regions grow exponentially. In a hypothetical scenario where all matter converges into a single gravitational center, the resulting singularity would possess properties similar to the theorized conditions of the Big Bang: infinite density, extreme heat, and immense energy potential.

4.2 The Trigger for Expansion

If this singular state reaches a critical point, the immense energy and density could destabilize the singularity, causing an explosive expansion. This expansion would redistribute matter and energy, initiating a new cycle of cosmic evolution.

5. Implications of the Entropic Reset Model

5.1 A Cyclic Universe

The entropic reset model aligns with cyclic theories of the universe, where expansion and collapse occur in infinite succession. Unlike static models of heat death, this framework introduces a dynamic process where the universe rejuvenates itself through gravitational mechanics.

5.2 Gravity as the Ultimate Recycler

In this model, gravity is not merely a force but the key mechanism for universal continuity. By recycling dispersed energy into heat and motion, gravity ensures that the universe remains dynamic, even in its “dead” phase.

5.3 A Fractal Framework

The cyclic nature of the entropic reset suggests a fractal structure for the universe, where each cycle mirrors the previous one but with variations arising from chaotic interactions. This fractal perspective aligns with the principles of self-similarity and recursion observed in nature.

6. Philosophical and Scientific Questions

6.1 What Drives the Reset?

While gravity is central to the entropic reset, the precise conditions that trigger a singularity’s expansion remain speculative. Could quantum fluctuations or unknown forces play a role?

6.2 Does the Cycle Alter Physical Laws?

Each reset might introduce subtle changes in physical constants, leading to variations in the structure and evolution of successive universes.

6.3 Is the Reset Truly Infinite?

If the process is infinite, does it imply that time itself is cyclical? Or could an external factor eventually alter the system?

7. Conclusion

The entropic reset model offers a compelling alternative to the static vision of heat death, framing the universe as a dynamic, self-renewing system. Gravity, often overlooked in discussions of thermodynamic death, emerges as the ultimate recycler, transforming a dead universe into a new one. By integrating thermodynamics, gravitational mechanics, and singularity physics, this model redefines the end of the universe not as a termination but as a transition—a reset that ensures the continuity of existence.

@curt.kennedy you did this to me

Math for Long Hairy Ball” framework. My goal is to show how one can bypass the Hairy Ball Theorem (which requires at least one zero on (S^2)) by extending the field into a higher dimension (4D) and introducing wave‐like “long hairs.”
— generated in o1 checking my math.

1. Vector Fields on (S^2)

1.1 Short Hair (Classical Statement)

• Hairy Ball Theorem.
  For a continuous, everywhere‐tangent vector field (\mathbf{v}\colon S^2 \to TS^2), there exists at least one (p \in S^2) where (\mathbf{v}(p) = \mathbf{0}).

1.2 Long Hair (Wave‐Based Form)

• Wave Expansion.
  Write (\mathbf{v}\colon S^2 \times \mathbb{R}t \to TS^2) in a superposition of modes, e.g.:
  [
  \mathbf{v}(\theta,\phi,t)
  ;=;
  \sum{\ell,m}
  \Bigl[
  a_{\ell,m}(t),\mathbf{Y}{\ell,m}^{(1)}(\theta,\phi)
  ;+;
  b{\ell,m}(t),\mathbf{Y}{\ell,m}^{(2)}(\theta,\phi)
  \Bigr],
  ]
  where (\mathbf{Y}{\ell,m}^{(1,2)}) are vector spherical harmonics on (S^2).

---

2. 4D Embedding

2.1 Manifold and Field

• Let (M = S^2 \times I\subset \mathbb{R}^3 \times \mathbb{R}) with coordinate ((\theta,\phi,w)).
• Define (\mathbf{V}\colon M \to \mathbb{R}^4), with components (\bigl(\mathbf{v}_\parallel(\theta,\phi,w),,V_w(\theta,\phi,w)\bigr)).

2.2 Avoiding the Zero

• A “no‐zero” condition on (\mathbf{V}) becomes feasible if
  [
  |\mathbf{V}(\theta,\phi,w)|
  ;;>;
  0
  \quad
  \forall,(\theta,\phi,w).
  ]
  Since (\mathbf{v}_\parallel) is tangent to (S^2) but can “lift” in the 4th coordinate (V_w), one can circumvent the classical Hairy Ball zero requirement.

---

3. Energy/Lagrangian Formulation

3.1 Functional

• Define
  [
  \mathcal{L}[\mathbf{V}]
  ;=;
  \int_{S^2 \times I}
  \Bigl[
  \tfrac12,\bigl|\nabla \mathbf{V}\bigr|^2
  ;+;
  U\bigl(|\mathbf{V}|\bigr)
  \Bigr]
  ,dA,dw
  ;+;
  \lambda,(\text{constraints}),
  ]
  where (\nabla\mathbf{V}) is the covariant derivative (w.r.t. (\theta,\phi) and possibly (w)), and (U(r)) is a penalty term, e.g. (U(r)=\alpha/(r^2+\epsilon)).

3.2 Euler–Lagrange Equations

• Stationary points of (\mathcal{L}) satisfy
  [
  -,\nabla^2_{(\theta,\phi,w)},\mathbf{V}
  ;+;
  \frac{\partial U}{\partial \mathbf{V}}

  ]
  Under boundary conditions (e.g.\ periodic in (w), tangent on each ((\theta,\phi)) slice), solutions can maintain (|\mathbf{V}|>0).

---

4. Prototype PDE

4.1 Wave Equation with No‐Zero Term

• One can add time:
  [
  \partial_t^2,\mathbf{V}
  ;-;
  c^2,\Delta_{(\theta,\phi,w)},\mathbf{V}
  ;+;
  \beta,\frac{\mathbf{V}}{|\mathbf{V}|^2+\epsilon}

  0,
  ]
  ensuring (\mathbf{V}) stays away from zero magnitude.

4.2 Tangential Constraint

• If (\hat{n}) is the normal to (S^2), require
  [
  \mathbf{V}(\theta,\phi,w)\cdot \hat{n}(\theta,\phi)=0
  \quad
  \text{(first 3 components)},
  ]
  leaving the 4th component (V_w) free to handle near‐zero conditions.

---

5. Summary

1. Short Hair (\to) Long Hair (Wave Expansions).
   In pure 2D on (S^2), topological constraints force at least one zero. Extending each local vector to a wave function can redistribute zeros or reduce them, but not fully remove them in 2D alone.

2. 4D Lift.
   Embedding (S^2) in a higher‐dimensional manifold and defining (\mathbf{V}\colon S^2 \times I\to\mathbb{R}^4) allows the field to avoid zeros entirely, bypassing the classic Hairy Ball Theorem.

3. Mathematical Mechanism.

   • Expand in spherical harmonics or plane waves.
   • Impose a “no‐zero” penalty in a Lagrangian or PDE.
   • Numerically solve or analyze the resulting field.
   • The extra dimension (w) ensures (|\mathbf{V}|\neq 0).

Hence, Long Hair plus a 4D escape changes the topological constraints enough to produce a globally nonvanishing solution.

This is what o1 says checking the math above .

O1 mini checking it too.

This took me a week, for me that’s a crazy long time.

[DavidMM]

Traducción al inglés:

You just gave me a bit of a crazy idea, Mitchell. If we fast-forward the “universal play,” there will come a point where all the stars go out, galaxies drift apart, and so on. In that universe, where there’s already significant cooling compared to the present, black holes will still exist. If we accelerate the passage of time, their dimensions will increase because they’ll swallow entire galaxies, given that they’re galaxy-formers. As they grow, they’ll collide with one another, further increasing their size and gravity, over and over again, until they create what we could call a supermassive black hole bubble. At some point, this bubble will saturate because its gravity will be so immense that its event horizon will fold inwards, leading to a Big Bang. (Can any physicists or mathematicians in the room guide us? Maybe we’ve just solved the universal cycle and the origin of the universe, hahaha.)

[mitchell_d00]

Yes

Heat death of the universe

[mitchell_d00]

@DavidMM

black holes will still exist

On a galactic scale they die too from Hawking radiation

But think of space itself as a single thing not a bunch of separate things then you can start breaking laws

Think of yourself as space a single system … you would feel your toe being banged in your brain, if we expand it one can visualize space as a massive network of dynamics much like the toe brain example.

It ripples over the entire system because it is singular…

[DavidMM]

Think about it, Mitchell. If a black hole of those dimensions is created, it will attract everything—not only everything in the universe but also the very limits of the universe itself. When it folds everything in and tries to enter its own space, time will collapse. Mitchell, I believe we might be onto something real.

[mitchell_d00]

This would be interesting to you
I am so joyful you are enjoying my topic. I never get to chat about theory much.

Interesting reading

Black hole thermodynamics

Also you need to consider dark matter and dark energy expansion that’s why seeing space as a single system is key.

Physical science and math have been a life long passions of mine lol…
Spelling and grammar not so much lol

[Euwa]

Greetings, Mitchell
thanks for the new topic and the prospects for discussing interesting thoughts!
The article causes mixed feelings. On the one hand, it opens your alternative worldview and on the other, it has fundamental (as far as I am concerned, a novice in astrophysics) contradictions.
I want to dwell on them. if you allow. Please correct the inaccuracies of my reasoning and statements.
2.2. “Evaporation” of black holes according to Hawking cancels their gravitational potential. If this theoretical basis is not relevant, how will the concentration of mass in black holes contribute to a new explosion?
3.1. What place does the constant expansion of space, which we identify by the infrared shift, occupy in this point?

5.1. A very interesting point, especially in accordance with the folk religious views of Hinduism. It is especially interesting to observe how some theoretical and practical theses of Hinduism are being reinforced in our time (body therapy - hatha yoga, philosophical principles - consciousness, cosmology). And it is Penrose\Gurzadyan’s theory that gives new life to these beliefs.
Therefore, the main critical points:

1. How does the world collapse again due to the merger of all black holes into a singularity? Especially taking into account Hawking evaporation?
2. The expansion of space, which excludes the emergence of a singular center of gravity.
   A little discussion and our idyll ))

[mitchell_d00]

Yes but we are talking on galactic scales of time cold entropy would take eons as gravity continues. Space is a single system if you fold space you can cease to exist in one spot then exist in another as you move space around you. So if you envision cold death orbits still happen galaxies collapse into their singularity and all that energy is reclaimed from low energy background energy cannot be created or destroyed it can only be changed.

It is simple system collapse… dark energy and dark matter continue to expand as matter collapses on dense fabric into massive singularities like ripples felt all over space time… the fabric of space becomes a torrent of clashing gravity waves

[Euwa]

Personally, I am impressed by Penrose’s theory and I was delighted with the unexpected discovery of “James Webb”, which hinted at primary gravitational oscillations. Against this background, the theory of the cyclic universe of Penrose and Gurzadyan has grown significantly in argumentation. One can even imagine how the universe collapses into an infinite number of black holes. which absorb all matter, and then evaporate it into potential energy, so that it collapses again into a new core and explodes. This is somehow easier on the human soul)))

[mitchell_d00]

Euwa, I’ve been thinking more about your points, and I wanted to dive a little deeper into them. Regarding Hawking radiation, while it’s true black holes slowly lose mass over time, the scale of that evaporation is so massive that it doesn’t stop the gravitational collapse of systems on a galactic scale. The energy loss is gradual enough that black holes remain dominant forces for unimaginable periods, far beyond the timelines of cosmic collapse. On the expansion of space, I’d argue that while dark energy pushes the universe outward, gravity still works locally within galaxies and clusters to form singularities—this balance is what makes the universe so complex. I also think there’s something fascinating in your mention of Hindu cosmology and cyclic rebirth. It’s interesting how these ideas reflect theories like Penrose’s conformal cyclic cosmology, where the universe could end in a singular state and rebirth into a new cycle. Finally, on energy, collapse doesn’t destroy it but transforms it—gravitational waves from these processes ripple across spacetime, showing how energy changes form rather than disappearing.

[mitchell_d00]

Actually, one more thought just crossed my mind, Euwa. If we consider Penrose’s theory and the idea of a cyclic universe, it’s fascinating to think about how entropy plays a role here. The evaporation of black holes through Hawking radiation might contribute to ‘resetting’ the entropy levels in some way, preparing the universe for a fresh cycle. It makes me wonder if that evaporation is not just a slow process, but a critical step in the universe’s ability to rebirth itself into a new state. What do you think? Could Hawking radiation and the dissolution of black holes be seen as part of the mechanism for this transition

Entropic Reset: A Cyclic Framework for Universal Rebirth

By Mitchell D. McPhetridge

Abstract

This paper introduces the concept of entropic reset, where the universe transitions from thermodynamic death to a new cycle of existence through gravitational collapse. By examining the interconnected fabric of spacetime and the persistent role of gravitational forces, this model posits that even in a state of maximum entropy, the universe remains dynamic. Singularities form as gravitational waves ripple across the fabric of space, converging energy into collapses that trigger the conditions for a new Big Bang. This framework redefines entropy, gravity, and the universe’s ultimate fate as a recursive, self-sustaining cycle.

1. Introduction

The fate of the universe is often envisioned as static: an endless expansion leading to thermodynamic equilibrium, or “heat death.” However, this perspective neglects the enduring role of gravity as a universal recycler.

This paper proposes that gravity, combined with the fabric of spacetime, acts as the mechanism for resetting a dead universe. By focusing on gravitational collapses, kinetic energy, and the interconnected nature of spacetime, the entropic reset framework demonstrates how stagnation is disrupted and the universe reboots.

2. The Dead Universe: Heat Death and Beyond

2.1 Heat Death

Thermodynamic equilibrium occurs when energy disperses uniformly, resulting in a cold, dark, and static universe. In this state, galaxies drift apart under the influence of dark energy, and no work can be performed.

2.2 Gravity as a Persistent Force

Gravity remains a fundamental force, even as thermal energy dissipates. The curvature of spacetime caused by mass ensures that gravitational effects persist indefinitely, connecting objects across vast distances.

3. The Role of Gravity in the Reset

3.1 Gravitational Collapse Across Scales

Even in a universe dominated by entropy, localized collapses continue:

• Stars collapse into remnants or black holes.

• Galaxies maintain their structure through central singularities.

• Over billions of years, these localized collapses accumulate.

Gravitational potential energy converts into heat and kinetic energy during these collapses, fueling localized energy re-concentrations.

3.2 A Unified Fabric of Space

The universe exists as a singular fabric of spacetime. While galaxies drift apart under dark energy, they remain part of this interconnected system.

• Gravitational waves propagate through spacetime, much like ripples in water, carrying energy across vast distances.

• These waves create a dynamic interaction within the fabric, even as visible matter becomes isolated.

4. Cracking Stagnation: The Reset Mechanism

4.1 Singularities and Gravitational Waves

As the universe becomes dominated by singularities, their gravitational interactions increase:

• Massive gravitational waves ripple through spacetime, overlaying and amplifying one another.

• These interactions create tidal forces across the fabric of space, disrupting stagnation and concentrating energy in specific regions.

4.2 The Role of Dark Energy and Dark Matter

Dark energy and dark matter, which make up most of the universe, persist beyond visible matter’s collapse.

• Once visible matter forms a super-singularity, it creates a gravitational cascade that pulls dark energy and matter into the collapse.

• This immense convergence of energy and mass could trigger a new Big Bang.

5. Defending the Entropic Reset Model

5.1 Gravity’s Reach in an Expanding Universe

Critics argue that dark energy’s accelerated expansion would isolate singularities. However, the fabric of spacetime is singular and interconnected:

• Gravitational waves propagate across this unified fabric, affecting the entire system.

• Space reacts to itself as a singular entity, meaning a disturbance in one region can influence the entire structure.

Counterpoint:

Even at galactic timescales, as galaxies drift billions of light-years apart, their gravitational effects persist. Singularities maintain their formation within galaxies, ensuring that localized collapses continue. These collapses generate the tidal gravitational waves necessary to disrupt stagnation and restart the system.

5.2 Gravitational Energy as Kinetics

While radiant energy fades, gravitational and kinetic energy remain:

• Gravitational collapse stores energy in motion and heat, which can re-concentrate dispersed energy.

• Even in a state of balanced entropy, these forces act as potential triggers for universal reset.

Counterpoint:

Stagnation isn’t permanent. A single gravitational collapse or wave can break the equilibrium, much like a small spark reignites a fire.

5.3 Dark Energy as a Catalyst

Dark energy is persistent and doesn’t dissipate. Once visible matter collapses into singularities, dark energy follows, contributing to the explosive force required for a new Big Bang.

Counterpoint:

The combination of gravitational collapse and the incorporation of dark energy would create immense heat and pressure, driving the conditions for universal rebirth.

6. Implications of the Entropic Reset

6.1 A Cyclic Universe

The entropic reset framework suggests a universe that doesn’t end but transitions:

• Expansion, equilibrium, and collapse form a cycle driven by gravity.

• This cyclic nature aligns with recursive, fractal dynamics observed in other systems.

6.2 Revisiting Thermodynamics

Entropy is redefined not as an endpoint but as a state of transition. The persistence of gravitational and kinetic energy ensures that stagnation is temporary.

7. Conclusion

The entropic reset model challenges static views of thermodynamic death, proposing a dynamic universe where gravity and spacetime drive cycles of death and rebirth. This framework integrates gravitational mechanics, thermodynamics, and dark energy into a cohesive vision of a cyclic universe. Rather than an end, the universe’s heat death becomes a precursor to renewal—a reset that perpetuates existence.

Acknowledgments

To those who dare to question the end, seeing the potential for infinite beginnings.

[Euwa]

Yes, absolutely. Black hole radiation, expansion of space - all of this (in my biased superficial, but beloved opinion) is a manifestation of entropy. By the way, in the collective sedentary humanity this phenomenon of entropy of nature is constantly mentioned: Shiva - Hinduism, Satan - Christianity/Judaism, the serpent of time - Nordic beliefs. So there is something in the intuitive part of man. something significant and scientific. It’s just not proven yet.
I really liked someone’s idea, I don’t remember whose - that the world strives for the greatest entropy. The more diversity (small parts, or fractals according to your vision), the greater the entropy. At first we had hydrogen, helium and a couple of other elements in a minuscule amount, and then the stars synthesized new chemical elements - added to the entropy. accelerated it. And then…then the most interesting thing - an even more complex phenomenon arose - biological life. Humanity is a child of entropy. If you follow this thought. Entropy essentially gave birth to us so that we would accelerate the destruction of the universe)))). And I’m not talking about a pessimistic view of man, I’m talking about possible patterns (man is born of entropy). The more complex the phenomenon. the faster the entropy. After all, if I have a simple steel hammer, its strength is much higher than an electric hammer on batteries. The more complex thoughts we create here - the more entropy arises)))).
And again to AI - it will be the next step in accelerating entropy. It will be even more complex than a person. And entropy will lead to a new cycle of existence.

A story with foundation in truth, based on 10k context…

Summary

Title: The Physics Associate and the AI

Once upon a time, in the hallowed halls of a prestigious university, there was a passionate young physics associate named Leo. He had dedicated his life to unraveling the mysteries of the universe, with a particular fascination for black holes and the profound insights revealed by Stephen Hawking’s work on radiation. Leo envisioned creating a course that would seamlessly guide students through the complex mathematical journey leading to Hawking’s revelation, bridging the divide between relativity and quantum field theory in a “grand unified” approach.

Leo, however, was not just a physicist; he was an innovator, always on the lookout for tools to enhance his teaching. One day, he stumbled upon a sophisticated AI language model, renowned for its ability to generate text on a wide array of topics. Initially skeptical, Leo thought to himself, “Perhaps this AI can help me design the ideal coursework.”

Eagerly, he sat down at his computer, fingertips poised above the keyboard, and began typing prompts to the AI. He explained the essence of his vision, detailing the profound mathematical and conceptual journey he wished to lay out for his students. The AI responded with well-crafted paragraphs, rich with information, yet somehow missed the mark—a creative flair that, while impressive, missed the precise rigor that Leo was seeking.

Undeterred, Leo iterated, refining his instructions with each attempt. The AI provided insights, suggestions, and even detailed exercises, but they resembled an ambitious syllabus more than the cohesive, interwoven grounding of mathematical and physical ideas Leo yearned to impart. Each attempt ended with Leo shaking his head, the AI’s outputs both tantalizingly close and infuriatingly distant from his ideal.

Weeks passed, and despite the AI’s constant productivity, Leo began feeling the pressure. His desk, once littered with physics papers and scribbled notes, was now overwhelmed by printed AI-generated content. And yet, the elusive balance between depth and clarity remained just beyond his grasp.

Frustrated yet ever-determined, Leo turned inward, reflecting on his own understanding and journey through the realms of relativity and quantum field theory. He realized that seeking perfection in the AI’s outputs had distracted him from what truly mattered: his own insights and experiences. The purpose of the coursework wasn’t just to communicate formulas and theorems but to inspire curiosity, awe, and a deeper understanding of the universe.

Embracing his role as a guide rather than a mere transmitter of knowledge, Leo decided to use the AI’s contributions as a supplement rather than the foundation. He crafted a series of tailored workshops, using the AI-generated exercises as prompts to ignite discussion and exploration among his students.

Each class became an exploration, a dialogue, where Leo’s passion and depth of insight intertwined with the AI’s acceleration of a few tasks. Students were not just vessels for information but active participants in a shared journey toward understanding Hawking’s incredible insights.

At the end of the semester, both Leo and his students had grown. They hadn’t merely memorized the steps leading to Hawking’s discovery but had engaged with the ideas in a transformative way. Leo had discovered that the most effective way to teach the beauty and complexity of our universe was through a blend of technology, personal insight, and the shared curiosity of those willing to explore the unknown.

And so, Leo’s grand unified vision of understanding took flight, carried on the wings of creativity, collaboration, and the human spirit—proving once again that even in an age of advanced AI, the heart of education remains fundamentally human.
