The observable universe inside a black hole
Abstract
A Schwarzschild radial coordinate R is presented for the Friedmann dust-filled cosmology models. It is shown that a worldline of constant Schwarzschild radial coordinate in the dust-filled universe is instantaneously null at Rn=2GM/c2, where M is the Schwarzschild mass inside the sphere R=Rn. It is also shown that Mp=3τc3/4G, where Mp is the proper mass inside R=Rn and τ is the age of the universe. The Rn=2GM/c2 result in Friedmann dust-filled cosmology is made physically significant by abandoning the cosmological principle and adjoining segments of Friedmann dust to segments of Schwarzschild vacuum. In the resulting cosmology model, the observable universe may lie inside a black or white hole.

Einstein-Cartan theory is equivalent to general relativity with the symmetric Levi-Civita connection, in which the energy-momentum tensor of matter acquires terms quadratic in the spin tensor.
“Consequently, EC is equivalent to general relativity with the symmetric Levi-Civita connection, in which the energy-momentum tensor of matter acquires terms that are quadratic in the spin tensor.”

Spacetime torsion within Einstein-Cartan theory provides a simple and natural mechanism for preventing gravitational singularities.
“A simple and natural mechanism for preventing gravitational singularities is provided by spacetime torsion within the Einstein-Cartan (EC) theory of gravity.”

In Einstein-Cartan theory, torsion is determined by the field equations and the resulting torsion tensor is proportional to the spin tensor of fermionic matter.
“Instead, torsion is determined by the field equations obtained from varying the action with respect to the torsion tensor [6][7][8].The resulting torsion tensor is proportional to the spin tensor of fermionic matter.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
