Why We Are Sponsoring This Research
The Selection-Stitch Model offers a unified, topological explanation for Dark Energy, Cosmic Inflation, and the Hubble Tension without invoking new exotic particles. It derives the mass of Dark Matter via volumetric displacement and predicts a distinct gravitational signature for Black Hole decay. However, extraordinary claims require rigorous verification.
IDrive® is establishing the SSM Research Fund to provide the resources necessary for:
to verify the 13/12 porosity boost.
of existing JWST and DESI data for SSM signatures.
of the polycrystalline vacuum hypothesis.
Our Goal
To confirm or falsify the geometric mechanisms proposed in the SSM.
Requests for Proposals (RFP)
We are accepting grant applications for research focused on the following Experimental Protocols:
Track A : Computational Simulation
Objective: Verify Finding D (The Saturation Limit).
Develop high-resolution Monte Carlo or Tensor Network simulations to test the "Sintering Limit." Proposals should aim to replicate or disprove the 0.02% deviation seen in preliminary periodic boundary simulations, scaling the grid size to investigate lattice saturation behaviors.
Track B : Observational Cosmology (Data Analysis)
Objective: Verify the "Cold Spot" and Spin Bias.
Analyze CMB data (Planck/LiteBIRD) for "Equilateral Non-Gaussianity" at the Eridanus Cold Spot. Or, analyze large-scale galaxy catalog data to test the SSM prediction of a spin dipole aligned with the primary nucleation vertex.
Track C : High-Energy Astrophysics
Objective: Search for the $M^2$ Decay Profile.
The SSM predicts that Black Holes decay via geometric un-stitching ($t \propto M^2$) rather than thermodynamic evaporation ($t \propto M^3$). We fund research into Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) archival data or CTAO observational strategies to distinguish these decay profiles

Key Predictions
As the universe evolved from a solid "Shielded" phase ($N=12$) to a porous "Mesh" phase ($N=13$), expansion accelerated by 8.3%. This matches the gap between Early and Late universe measurements.
Dark Matter is identified as a $4_1$ topological knot (Figure-Eight) with a derived mass of 0.88 GeV.
Acceleration is driven by a "Repair Mechanism" ($V \propto S^{1.5}$) healing cosmic voids, not a cosmological constant.
