We propose a heuristic model of the universe as a growing quasicrystal projected from a higher-dimensional lattice. By extending the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for a particle in a box with time-dependent boundaries, we derive an equation that resembles the Friedmann equation, addressing the Hubble tension. This model incorporates phonons and phasons, providing insights into cosmic-scale dynamics and the universe's expansion. We outline a pre-inflation tiling space phase with quantum error correction, a radiation phase dominated by quasiparticles, and a post-radiation phase with the emergence of matter. Our hypothesis, which posits that the universe is a growing quasicrystal, suggests that the necessity for an inflationary period may be obviated. Furthermore, phonon arising from this quasicrystalline structure could act as dark matter, influencing the dynamics of ordinary matter while remaining mostly undetectable by electromagnetic interactions. This hypothesis draws parallels with other crystalline matter at atomic scales that are fundamentally quantum in nature. We also explore how the notion of tiling space can support continuous symmetry atop a discrete structure, providing a novel framework for understanding the universe's expansion and underlying structure. Consequently, it is logical to start with quantum mechanics as the foundation of our model. Further development could enhance our understanding of cosmic expansion and the underlying structure of the universe. |
