NOTEBOOKS

The computational evidence behind every load-bearing claim

Version 11.9  |  May 31, 2026  |  Pre-empirical

"If we can specify how we're wrong, we might be right."

WHAT THIS PAGE IS

Every numerical claim TSO makes — σ = 0.18058, pc = 0.3116, 1−pc = ΩΛ to 0.07%, the Pip mass spectrum, sin²θW = 3/13, the Anderson localization gap, and the rest — comes out of a notebook that can be opened, run, and verified. This page is the index of those notebooks. They are organized by topic, with the most load-bearing results listed first.

Notebooks marked [load-bearing] support a claim referenced from the landing page, math cheat sheet, or house. Notebooks marked [exploratory] or [roof level] are speculative work in progress and should be treated accordingly. Notebooks marked [superseded] are kept for the historical record; newer notebooks above them carry the current result.

The framework's policy: anything claimed in prose has a notebook behind it. If a notebook below conflicts with prose elsewhere on the site, the notebook wins — please report the discrepancy.

v11.8 REFERENCE NOTEBOOKS — NOTATION CLEANUP

Three reference notebooks support the v11.8 disambiguation of κ into three distinct named quantities (α the branching factor, λ the rate constant, ν the correlation exponent). The first is the canonical reference for the renamed framework; the other two are the substantive investigations of λ = e and the corrected ν ≈ 0.88.

Notebook 1 — Renamed framework referenceCanonical definitions of α, λ, ν, pc, Wfloor, δW with the BEST_PERM Fano line assignment; the single source of truth for the renamed framework[load-bearing]
Notebook 2 — λ = e investigationMIPT fit returns λ = 2.728 ± 0.080 (0.12σ from e); four candidate derivations (structural, max-entropy, self-consistency, geometric) all examined and judged insufficient; status: EMPIRICALLY FIRM, THEORETICALLY OPEN[load-bearing]
Notebook 3 — ν correction (Fano-bond MC)Direct Monte Carlo of Fano-bond percolation on the BEST_PERM Z = 7 lattice gives ν ≈ 0.82 (variant a) and ν ≈ 0.74 (variant b), both 3D class; standard 3D site percolation benchmark recovers literature ν = 0.876; previous claim ν = 4/3 from 2D universality retired[load-bearing]

v11.9 NOTEBOOKS — DARK MATTER / EPI-MATTER (WORKING)

Six notebooks were produced during the May 31, 2026 dark matter session, which introduced the framework's identification of dark matter with epi-matter — substrate adjacent to matter in the V(W) landscape but distinct from it, occupying the protected percolation regime. Companion to Prediction 42.

The notebooks span: structural due diligence, quantitative cluster ratio test, σ₈ tension investigation, Euclid prediction package, finite-size scaling check, and Kibble-Zurek consistency test. They are listed in roughly the order they were produced during the session, which is also the order they should be read in. The framework does not yet commit to a single mechanism for the cluster ratio match; four candidate explanations are tracked.

NotebookResultStatus
DM due diligence Tests whether the identification "dark matter = protected percolation regions" survives structural scrutiny. 4/4 sections PASS: maps cleanly to the TSO landscape regime between pc and pq; reproduces all v6.1 observational successes (Bullet Cluster, cored profiles, frictionless, no classical rotation) through a sharper mechanism; γ_c/γ_o environmental sensitivity adds new testable predictions; no internal conflict with framework's other commitments. [load-bearing]
Unified cosmogenesis v2 3D site percolation at pc, with no Fano structure and no free parameters, reproduces the observed cosmic baryon : epi-matter : void ratios to within factor 1.6 across all three components. Void match exact (0.3%); epi-matter match within 5%; baryon match within factor 1.6 (34% low). The void identification is essentially exact and L-independent. [load-bearing]
σ₈ asymmetry quick check Tested whether attenuated gravitational coupling for epi-matter (T function operational, X₂ function partially severed) could explain the observed σ₈ tension between Planck CMB and weak lensing surveys. Simplest Fano-line counting gives 13σ disagreement — would over-predict suppression by 6×. Gravitational asymmetry parked as a candidate explanation. [negative result, archived]
Euclid DR1 predictions (epi-matter) Pre-registered predictions for Euclid DR1 (October 21, 2026): four hard predictions (P-EM-1 through P-EM-4) independent of Euclid data, four soft predictions (P-EUC-1 through P-EUC-4) testable in DR1, four candidate explanations for the baryon discrepancy honestly listed. Written with the Fayfar-Bretaña-Montfrooij group at Missouri as the natural domain-expert audience. [load-bearing]
L-scaling test Tested whether the cluster ratio match at L=24 was finite-size effect. L bracket from 8 to 96. Result: empty fraction is L-independent (matches 1 − pc across all L); spanning fraction scales as L-0.66, not the literature L-0.48 for standard 3D percolation; epi-matter (finite cluster) fraction drifts with L from 0.241 to 0.297. Best baryon match at L ≈ 11, best epi-matter match at L ≈ 15. The L=24 match was not asymptotic; different components match at different L. [diagnostic]
Kibble-Zurek test Tested whether the L-dependent matches could be explained by Kibble-Zurek sequential lock-in during continuous early-universe expansion. Result: structurally consistent. Required time-separation between baryon and epi-matter lock-in moments is 1.94×–2.65× (depending on dynamical exponent z = 1 or 2). At z = 2 (overdamped Model A dynamics), required ratio is 2.65× ≈ e ≈ 2.72 — one e-fold of inflation. Not yet a derived prediction (z chosen as input), but consistent. [suggestive]

Open Problem 60 (added v11.9): how is the cosmic L (where the cluster ratios get locked in) set? Three candidates: (a) Planck-scale cutoff at L ~ ℓPlanck; (b) Kibble-Zurek-driven lock-in scale set by cosmic quench rate at percolation event; (c) cosmic correlation length at the moment of the percolation event. Resolution requires either deriving the lattice unit in physical length from framework axioms or specifying the cosmic dynamics during the early-universe percolation event. The Fayfar-Bretaña-Montfrooij group at Missouri (published protected percolation universality class with γ' = 1.3066, the closest condensed-matter analog) is the natural expert audience for this question; outreach planned.

See Prediction 42 for the consolidated dark matter / epi-matter prediction package on the predictions page.

1. CORE RESULTS — σ DERIVATION AND THE CY STAIRCASE

The thermodynamic noise scale σ = 6/√1104 = 0.18058 is the centerpiece of v11.6. It is a proposed closed form built from two TSO axiom integers (Vtet = 4, χ(K3) = 24), with provenance unverified: it reproduces 0.18058, but 6 and 1104 are not yet shown to be forced rather than selected to match the target, and the derivation chain has not been independently reconstructed. The Calabi-Yau staircase associated with it has been PALP-verified at three rungs.

2. STRESS TESTS AND FIXES — THE v11.6 / v11.7 COLLABORATION

Joshua Osborne's six stress tests subjected TSO's geometric primitives to independent checks against PDG masses, the fine-structure constant, dark energy density, the W boson mass, and lepton ratios. Five of six pass cleanly. The sixth (lepton absolute scale) became Fix 4, which has a candidate resolution via the Fano-Tetrahedron formula A = √EPip × (Z/Vtet)² — a 0.04% numerical match, though not truly parameter-free: EPip derives from σ = 6/√1104, whose provenance is unverified, and the (Z/Vtet)² factor and the squaring step are proposed, not derived. A genuine 0.04% match resting on a candidate σ, pending the squaring derivation.

3. THE DECISIVE TEST — RYDBERG SIGMOID

The Rydberg sigmoid experiment tests four independent predictions (P1 shape, P40 ν ≈ 0.88, P29 width, P30 peak location) from a single sweep. It is the experiment that confirms or falsifies TSO. The protocol notebook closes the open observability questions (Γ_net measurement, δW window, and the question of which Kim et al. dataset to audit). Outreach to KAIST (Ahn) and MPQ Munich (Gyger) is pending response. v11.8 update: the original P2 prediction (κ = 4/3 from 2D universality) has been retired and replaced by P40 (ν ≈ 0.88 from 3D universality) — see retired Prediction 2 and Prediction 40.

4. EXISTING HARDWARE TESTS — QUANDELA AND IBM

Quandela Belenos (photonic boson sampling) supplies the only anchored Pip calibration to date: γBS = 522 Pips. IBM heavy-hex hardware confirms the Anderson localization gap direction (pq > pc) but cannot resolve its position because the hardware sits above pc by engineering. The Fano 7-qubit circuit is the most direct available test of G2 structure.

5. PARTICLE STRUCTURE — PIPS, CODEWORDS, AND THE FANO PLANE

Topological particles (proton N=28, D meson N=56, Omega⁻) sit ON [7,4,3] Hamming codewords; energetic particles (kaon N=15, Λ, Σ, Ξ) sit OFF codewords with HD=1 — decay is the universe correcting a bit error. The Pip mass spectrum (EPip = 33.437 MeV) anchors hadron masses to 0.2–1.6% across the table. Strangeness emerges as the 4th coordinate of PG(3,2) — non-strange particles live in the 2D Fano subplane.

6. STANDARD MODEL CONSTANTS

Specific numerical results for SM constants derivable from TSO geometric primitives. sin²θW = 3/13 from Fano degree counting (0.09% from measurement, zero free parameters — integer counting, no tuned values). [Caveat added July 13, 2026: sin²θW runs with energy (≈0.2312 at MZ, ≈0.2386 at low Q), so a fixed integer ratio matches at most one scale — the 0.231 match implicitly selects MZ, unexplained. Treat as the MZ-scale value. The "13 gauge degrees" count is also downstream of the gauge-group reading corrected below.] All four Maxwell equations are recovered from X₁ conservation and T as active path (a derivation within the framework's assumptions). The cosmological constant Λ_TSO is obtained from Fano geometry and checked against four independent tests.

7. G2 GEOMETRY AND THE FANO STRUCTURE

The 7D G2 manifold is the compactified boundary of a Calabi-Yau fourfold. The Fano plane provides the irreducible 7-path structure that grounds Z=7. Octonion / Fano mapping produces an identity-best 74% match with carrier neutrality. [CORRECTED July 13, 2026] An earlier version stated "spontaneous G2 → SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1) symmetry breaking occurs at pc — the transition IS the GUT symmetry breaking event." That is group-theoretically impossible (G2 is rank 2, the Standard Model group rank 4; a subgroup cannot exceed its parent's rank — computed: dim Der(𝕆)=14, rank 2) and is retracted. What survives is colour SU(3) only, as the stabilizer of ∅/HERE in G2; the electroweak factor needs a separate rank-≥4 structure (octonion left-action / triality), not G2, and is open. See house.

8. DYNAMICS — V(p), RG FLOW, AND LINDBLAD

The equation of motion dp/dt = γo(p, stored) − γc(p, interactions) IS the RG beta function with mechanical meaning. The wave phase is the high-energy state; γc lowers energy via interaction, γo raises it via stored configuration. TSO's γ events map onto Lindblad jump operators in the technical sense — pair-correlated operators commute with the charge operator exactly (‖[L, Q]‖ = 0), making charge conservation structural rather than postulated.

9. BLACK HOLES AND COSMOLOGY

Black hole resonance derived from Bell + Itô SDE formulations. Vacuum closing tension γc connects to dark energy as undepleted stored γo. The cosmological match 1 − pc = ΩΛ at 0.07% (Planck 2018) is one of the framework's tightest results. Boundary flux injection produces p₁ = 30 and the tadpole condition N = 15 as exact integers.

10. FRACTIONAL QUANTUM GRAVITY (FQG) BRIDGE

The primary theoretical framework for TSO is Fractional Quantum Gravity (Calcagni 2021, Class. Quant. Grav. 38, 165006, arXiv:2102.03363; recent perturbative-unitarity work Calcagni & Briscese 2026, arXiv:2603.25709). The bridge equation dS(FQG) = df(TSO) = 2.571 at E = EPip connects the two frameworks at the Pip scale. The PG(n,2) → PG(n+1,2) level transitions in the projective hierarchy ARE the FQG dimensional flow.
