  "abstract": "The Cold Dark Matter ($\\Lambda$CDM) paradigm relies on the ad hoc insertion of invisible, non-baryonic mass to justify the kinematic anomalies of galaxies, particularly flat rotation curves and gravitational lensing. Despite decades of underground research, direct detection of WIMPs has yielded exclusively null results. In this work, we resolve the CDM paradox by replacing the dark matter hypothesis with the torsional topology of the vacuum.\n\nBy moving beyond the torsion-free Levi-Civita metric in favor of a Riemann-Cartan spacetime, we demonstrate that the Kerr horizon of primordial supermassive black holes acts as a topological dynamo. During the active quasar phase, this engine imprints a long-range, non-dissipative torsional tension ($k_T$) along the galactic equatorial plane. This topological continuity modifies the geodesic balance equation, naturally generating an asymptotic constant velocity $v = \\sqrt{k_T}$ that remains structurally invariant up to the Megaparsec scale. Furthermore, we analytically prove that this radial tension gradient produces a constant null-geodesic deflection ($\\alpha_{Torsion} = 2\\pi(v_{flat}/c)^2$), perfectly mimicking the optical-gravitational weak lensing currently misattributed to dark matter halos.\n\nApplying our derivation to the kinematic data of NGC 3198, Andromeda (M31), and recent JWST/ALMA observations of massive rotating disks at high redshift ($z > 6$), we confirm that rapid early galactic assembly, flat core density profiles (resolving the Cusp-Core problem), and the Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation ($M_{bar} \\propto k_T^2$) are purely geometric consequences of vacuum rigidity. This deterministic Continuum 4D Engine approach definitively eliminates the cosmological need for dark matter, proving it to be a macroscopic optical-gravitational illusion representing the vacuum's topological memory.",
