Papers you can read, cite and question

728 papers from the QNFO program, filed on nine shelves by the reader each one is written for: energy per answer, error correction, physics, numbers and p-adics, logic and formalism, AI and knowledge, autonomous systems, assessments, and cross-cutting essays. Every page renders its mathematics and can be questioned in place. How a living paper works.

    Distinction, Discretisation, and the Cost of Law: A Quantitative Sketch of Approximation Entropy

    The deepest question in physics is often posed as "What are the laws?", but a prior question is "What does it cost to state, and to compute with, a law?" Building on the distinction-based formalism of Spencer-Brown's Laws of Form as consolidated in the Quantum Laws of Form (QNFO) programme, and on…
