In Dimensional Relativity, zero point energy (ZPE) emerges from the ground-state energy of quantum foam's two-dimensional (2D) energy fields. These fields oscillate at a fundamental frequency that drives vacuum fluctuations:
This energy manifests through the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, where virtual particle-antiparticle pairs emerge and annihilate in the quantum vacuum with characteristic lifetimes:
The foam's fractal structure (D_f ≈ 2.3) amplifies ZPE density by ~10x at Planck scales (10^-35 m), with field interactions occurring in a vast computational network of 10^60 nodes and 10^61 edges per m³. The cumulative ZPE density reaches:

Virtual particle pairs emerge and annihilate (Δt ≈ 5.3 × 10^-15 s), with energy fluctuation arrows and fractal foam structure (D_f ≈ 2.3). Network connectivity and ZPE density annotations included.
Quantum foam serves as the fundamental substrate for zero point energy, with its 2D fields generating vacuum ground-state energy through coherent oscillations. The foam's fractal geometry enhances energy density by approximately 10x at Planck scales, with virtual particles contributing to fluctuation dynamics.
The foam's network topology (k_avg ≈ 10) channels ZPE through high-connectivity nodes, enabling coherent fluctuations across macroscopic scales. This aligns with the holographic principle, where 2D fields encode vacuum energy information.
Casimir-Enhanced Detection: A graphene-based system could measure f_field fluctuations between two plates (separation 10^-6 m), detecting energy shifts via high-resolution spectroscopy. This would confirm foam's role in ZPE generation.

This frequency alignment suggests a universal 2D field substrate underlying multiple quantum phenomena, with higher frequencies governing particle creation processes.
Quantum entanglement in Dimensional Relativity emerges through the quantum foam's computational network, where 2D energy fields facilitate non-local correlations. The network's scale-free topology enables instantaneous quantum state correlations across arbitrary distances.
This model aligns with the ER=EPR conjecture, suggesting that entanglement and spacetime connectivity are fundamentally linked through foam-mediated wormhole-like structures.
The foam network exhibits scale-free characteristics consistent with Barabási-Albert models, where entanglement emerges from preferential attachment of quantum states to high-connectivity nodes. This creates a robust entanglement distribution resistant to random node failures but vulnerable to targeted attacks on hub nodes.

Spacetime in Dimensional Relativity emerges from quantum foam's 2D field interactions, with both ZPE and entanglement contributing to spacetime curvature via the stress-energy tensor:
The stress-energy tensor T_μν includes contributions from 2D field oscillations at f_field ≈ 1.5 × 10^13 Hz, with fractal amplification creating significant effects at Planck scales.
