Space is not my area of expertise. Matrix math even less so. I'm not even remotely conversant on cosmological physics. So take the following as the cranky meanderings it truly represents.
Have you ever had an idea that won't let you go? I've got one. I'm not sure what to call it, but it is the idea that the expansion of space is uneven. Couple to that the idea that dark matter is an illusion created by negative pressure created by this uneven expansion. Finally, speculate that this expansion is sensitive to matter, and the more matter there is, the less expansion.
So, why is this an idea at all? Well, it started out as a concept looking at what a negative pressure field would look like. You know, "antigravity." I'm not a crank in that regard, and I don't believe in free energy or a lot of the kooky malarky that gets dredged up by a lot of folks. Still, my idea is probably cranky at that, because I don't have good numbers, or much idea of where to look.
The depiction of galaxy distribution looks vaguely like a foam. Accumulations of dark matter appear to be "hollow." Dark matter continues to evade direct detection. The falloff in inflation after the big bang, the reheating issue, the accelerating expansion, there are a lot of issues that appeal to my urge to problem solve. So I throw together a bunch of what-ifs, and then mull it over.
So, I'll mull it over. Maybe someday I'll do some math analyzing the behaviors of inverse-gas in a foam.
