An idea that comes to my mind, by considering the generalized GR Einstein-Hilbert equation that I discussed in earlier postings of this thread, is that the universe might achieve its stability by a balance between visible and dark matter: Suppose (as a thought experiment, even though it may sound strange) that the visible matter has a special levity force, perhaps due to its QM activities, which then would generate a pressure on the before mentioned Lagrangian in a direction opposite to that of classical matter. Then this would put a pressure on visible matter to move apart, which dark matter would instead contract, until it ignites. If there is an instability, the universe would adjust by producing more of dark/visible matter, whatever needed to achieve the stability again. There are several problems with such a model: Why isn't there a pressure making double stars falling apart (perhaps the levity force only acts on longer distances). And why isn't the universe more homogenous with respect to local age differences of galaxies, i.e., why aren't there say more quasars local to us. In general, the more homogeneous the universe (or our "glob") is with respect to such local age differences of galaxies, the older it should be. I should also have said that the original reason that I started to think about "cosmic convection" is if it possible for black hole matter to tunnel out of the black hole. This might be possible via a generalized GR Einstein-Hilbert equation as above, because then particles near the black hole classical event horizon will have a state simultaneously inside and outside it: The GRQM event horizon will be "fuzzy", not sharp. One can construct intrinsic particle spin by letting the Clifford bundle acting on the differential forms algebra. Then the Levi-Civita connection, which communicates gravity in GR, will act trivially on those differential forms. This suggests that at least intrinsic particle spin will be preserved when matter entering a black hole, and therefore also if tunneling out of it, if that is possible. If this process generalizes so that other fundamental particle invariants are preserved when entering the black hole (which should be in the case of the GRQM Fock space model I mentioned, as it is known, I think, that the Levi-Civita connection will be trivial on the cotensor bundle part), then the particles tunneling out of the black hole might be the stable particles composed of those invariants. This matter might then be not so energetic, explaining why it can't be observed as visible matter. And then one gets, at least locally, also dark matter leaving the galaxies, i.e., from the black hole at the hub. This should be in the form of a weak particle stream sort of trickling out of it.
