Discretization and de-geometrization (II): Quantizing Minkowski's spacetime continuum

A path toward quantizing gravity is suggested by describing the emergence of the spacetime continuum and its curvature using a mechanistic substratum model of discrete entities. By fusing pregeometry and the new mathematics of endo-geometry, a concept of a dynamically changing hyperspherical “quantized bubble” replaces the conventional geometric point. A quantum foam is an assemblage of these interacting bubbles. The structure of the cosmos, particles, and black holes are treated as naturally emerging four-dimensional hyperspheres. An insight into dark energy is considered.
