Gravity as Residual Collapse Geometry:
A Semantic Field Perspective on the Weakness of Gravity
Toward a Unified Interpretation of Weak Interaction and
Gravitational Curvature in Semantic Collapse Geometry
Abstract
Why is gravity so weak compared to the other fundamental forces? While the Standard Model offers an elegant explanation for electromagnetic, weak, and strong interactions through gauge symmetries and exchange bosons, gravity remains an outlier—geometrized by general relativity, yet defying unification and resisting quantization. In this paper, we propose a radical reframing: gravity is not a fundamental force in the traditional sense, but a residual curvature of collapsed meaning in semantic phase space. Drawing from the framework of Semantic Meme Field Theory (SMFT), we introduce the concept of collapse geometry, where all forces are reinterpreted as consequences of observer-induced semantic projection, and where gravity emerges as the geometric memory trace of past semantic collapses. Unlike electromagnetism or the weak interaction—which act through active tension gradients (∇θΨ)—gravity is shown to originate from the inertia of meaning: a curvature induced by collective meme alignment and semantic trace saturation. We argue that gravity’s weakness is a natural consequence of its passive role as a semantic echo, not a gradient force. Furthermore, we uncover deep structural parallels between gravity and the weak interaction—both serving as mediators of phase transitions in cultural or informational systems. This collapse-theoretic approach opens new possibilities for unifying gravity with quantum field dynamics—not by symmetry merging, but by functional geometry across the collapse landscape of reality.
