Appendix — Black holes, event horizons, and regime equilibrium

Note: this appendix proposes a physical reading consistent with the rules of the Sphere of Everything. It is not presented as proven physics, but as an interpretative and deductive framework that does not aim to replace current scientific models.

In the model of the Sphere of Everything, black holes do not represent an exception to the fundamental rules of existence, nor a place where physics “breaks down”. On the contrary, they constitute one of the contexts in which the invariant rules of the center manifest themselves in an extreme and, for this very reason, particularly legible way.

The event horizon as a regime limit

As one approaches the event horizon of a black hole, ordinary physical description undergoes a progressive transformation. Time, as it is measured and experienced far from the black hole, increasingly contracts; causal sequence loses operational meaning; states become unstable and difficult to describe. This does not imply destruction of matter nor annihilation of existence, but a change of regime.

Within the framework of the Sphere, the event horizon is not an ontological boundary, but a limit of describability. Beyond this limit, it is no longer possible to follow the evolution of states using classical categories of space, time, and form. What remains valid is not the material configuration, but coherence with invariant rules: conservation, continuity, and equilibrium.

The black hole not as a “hole”, but as a region of pure rule

In this sense, a black hole is not a “hole” in the intuitive meaning of the term. It is neither an ontological void nor a point of destruction. Rather, it is a region in which rules persist, while describable forms decay. Matter approaching the horizon is not destroyed: it progressively loses state, time, and form, transforming into a regime in which only the information of the rules remains significant.

This is consistent with the fact that we cannot directly observe the event horizon. Light cannot “escape” from that limit, but we can observe everything that happens around it: the accretion disk, the increase in mass, the energy released in surrounding regions. A black hole, in fact, only grows; and this is an observationally confirmed fact.

Accretion and accumulation at the horizon

Matter attracted by a black hole does not “fall inside” as ordinary matter. Before reaching the event horizon, it passes through a phase of accretion and energetic transformation. The accretion disk grows over time, and with it the horizon itself grows. Matter does not disappear: it changes regime, accumulating in a form that is no longer directly observable as an object, yet still constrained by the rules of conservation.

Up to this point, the description is fully compatible with observational physics. However, an open question remains: why, in some cases, is part of this matter released in the form of extreme energetic jets, such as those observed in quasars?

Quasars as manifestations of rebalancing

In the current scientific context, we know that quasars are associated with supermassive black holes and that they release enormous amounts of energy. We also know that they are not eternal: they are born, evolve, and terminate their cycle. What is not yet fully clarified is the deep reason behind this expulsion.

In the model of the Sphere of Everything, this phenomenon can be read as a direct consequence of the rule of equilibrium. If a black hole progressively accumulates transformed matter at the event horizon, an increasingly pronounced regime asymmetry is created. Since equilibrium is a necessary and non-optional rule, such an asymmetry cannot grow indefinitely without compensation.

In this reading, a quasar is neither an anomaly nor a random event: it is the observable manifestation of a rebalancing process. Part of the energy and matter in an extreme regime is released, not because the black hole “chooses” to expel it, but because invariant rules impose a compensation.

Matter, antimatter, and a shared center

This interpretation becomes even more coherent if the center of the Sphere is considered as a common set of invariants, valid for both matter and antimatter. This does not imply in any way that matter transforms into antimatter or that there is a direct passage between the two regimes. On the contrary, it is essential to clarify that:

• matter remains matter;
• antimatter remains antimatter;
• no annihilation or transfer occurs.

What is shared is not substance, but the rules.

If black holes can collide — and we know that this occurs — then, within a symmetric framework of shared rules, it is legitimate to hypothesize that extreme configurations of matter and antimatter are subject to the same equilibrium constraints. In the presence of a significant asymmetry, one of the configurations must compensate. This compensation does not occur as a transfer of matter from one domain to the other, but as a release of regime within the same domain.

Finite lifetime of quasars

The fact that quasars have a limited lifetime thus finds a natural explanation. They do not represent a stable state, but a transitory phase of rebalancing. When the asymmetry is compensated, the process is exhausted. A quasar does not “die” due to lack of energy, but because the equilibrium imposed by the rules has been restored.

This approach does not claim to “know what is inside” a black hole: it claims that if the rules are invariant, then even the most extreme phenomena must respect them.
