SU(3) Symmetry and Chirality in the Genetic Code: A Quantum-Astrobiological Framework for the Emergence of Life

This preprint presents a quantum-astrobiological model for the emergence of life, proposing that the SU(3) symmetry of the genetic code reflects a deeper informational structure shared by quantum field dynamics and biological chirality. By analyzing the codon space through group theory and topological symmetry, the study explores how life's architecture may emerge from cosmic, entangled, and symbolic conditions.

It argues that the triplet nature of the code, its degeneracy, and stereochemical structure are not arbitrary but manifestations of SU(3) harmonic logic, linking genetic information with early-universe symmetry breaking. The work connects biological handedness, quantum algebra, and informational entropy within a symbolic coherence framework and explores the possibility that life's emergence is guided by resonant symmetries present across physical and biological systems.

This is the fifth entry in a six-preprint foundational series on realistic quantum biology, grounded in the framework presented in:
