CMB Anomalies from Topology
Three large‑angle CMB features have persisted across COBE, WMAP, and Planck with no explanation within ΛCDM. The Möbius embedding in S³ restricts the mode spectrum at large scales, breaks even‑odd symmetry through the non‑orientable identification, and defines a preferred axis as the twist normal. What has been called the “axis of evil” may be the universe revealing the geometry of its beginning.
