Golden Ratio Subdivision in Black Hole Formation and Accretion: A Topological Hypothesis
Golden Ratio Subdivision in Black Hole Formation and Accretion: A Topological Hypothesis Ritesh January 8, 2025 Abstract This paper proposes that gravitational collapse, black hole formation, and accretion dynamics follow a recursive subdivision pattern governed by the golden ratio (φ ≈ 1.618). Inspired by the topological properties of Möbius strip subdivision, I hypothesize that stellar collapse partitions mass approximately 38:62 (golden ratio proportions), with similar patterns manifesting in accretion disk structure and ultimately in quantum field dissolution at the event horizon. Specific testable predictions for Event Horizon Telescope observations at 0.87mm wavelength are provided. 1. Introduction The observation that initiated this hypothesis was a simple physical experiment: cutting a Möbius strip longitudinally at 1/3 of its width produces one small Möbius strip (retaining the topological twist) and one larger twisted loop. This 1/3 subdivision ratio, which ap...
