Falsification Criteria

HDIF is grounded in the principle that every major prediction must be refutable. This experiment outlines the conditions under which HDIF would be proven false, ensuring that the framework meets the highest standards of scientific rigor. The falsification criteria evaluate phase-lag behavior, Casimir deviations, horizon quantization in analogues, and quantum memory patterns.

​

Why It Matters:

Clear falsification pathways distinguish HDIF as a scientifically responsible theory—one that can be evaluated, challenged, and improved through empirical evidence.

​

Methods

HDIF’s predictions are tested across multiple experimental domains. Each pathway establishes explicit thresholds that must be met for the theory to remain viable. Cross-comparison ensures that no single experiment defines the outcome; instead, the framework is assessed through a multi-axis falsification matrix.

Predicted Signatures (or Lack Thereof)

HDIF is falsified if the following hold under reasonable sensitivity:

• No phase-lag signatures in interferometric data

• No Casimir deviations matching curvature-memory predictions

• No quantized steps or memory-driven oscillations in analogue gravity platforms

• No coherence-to-memory mapping in quantum systems

• No measurable form of curvature-memory coupling within experimental limits

A clean null result across all tests would indicate that spacetime does not behave according to HDIF’s interface-memory model.
