Abstract

The cosmological constant problem is a fundamental issue that has puzzled researchers in the fields of theoretical physics and cosmology for a long time. It arises from the discrepancy between the observed value of the cosmological constant and the value predicted by quantum field theory. A new spacetime model based on nonassociative geometry and statistical physics of complex networks offers a fresh perspective on the problem. Our research indicates that spacetime topology plays a crucial role in solving the cosmological constant problem and addressing the dark energy issue. We discovered that spacetime foam significantly impacts the effective cosmological constant, which is determined by the density of topological geons. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the source of dark energy is topological geons
