Hypothesis I: Quantum Entanglement as Higher-Dimensional Boundary Contact

Summary ‐ Quantum Entanglement as Higher-Dimensional Boundary Contact Hypothesis

This hypothesis proposes that quantum entanglement is not merely a non-local correlation occurring within spacetime, but a manifestation of contact between distinct layers of a higher-dimensional manifold that underlies spacetime itself.

In this view, what appears to us as instantaneous entanglement between distant particles arises because those particles are co-located or intersect at a shared boundary in a higher-order dimensional structure.

Thus, entanglement is re-interpreted not as an information exchange across distance, but as a geometric continuity across hierarchical dimensions ‐ a form of topological adjacency beyond three-dimensional space and temporal separation.

This framework aims to reconcile the apparent non-locality of quantum mechanics with a deeper geometric ontology, where causality and connectivity emerge from the structure of multidimensional contact itself.

Entanglement as higher‑dimensional boundary contact Two spatially separated particles A and B in spacetime (3+1D) are co‑located via contact at a shared boundary Σ in a higher‑dimensional manifold. Vertical projections illustrate that apparent non‑locality arises from higher‑order adjacency rather than distance‑traversing signals.
