The fundamental force by which mass and energy curve spacetime, drawing bodies together.
Newton's description: attractive force proportional to product of masses, inverse square of distance
Einstein's description: geometry of spacetime shaped by mass-energy distribution — see relativity
weakest of the four fundamental forces yet dominates at cosmic scales — see cosmology
predicts gravitational waves: ripples in spacetime from accelerating mass
governs planetary orbits, tides, and large-scale structure of the universe
gravitational field assigns a potential to every point in space — see field
unifying gravity with quantum mechanics is the central unsolved problem in physics
in the tri-kernel framework, gravity maps to the springs operator: the graph Laplacian is the discrete version of ∇² that governs gravitational potential. mass in physics corresponds to tokens in cyber — both curve the geometry of their respective spaces
