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.

Operational Axioms Do Not Select the Standard Model: A Formal Audit of a Generalized-Probabilistic-Theory Reconstruction Conjecture
A conjecture in the foundations of physics holds that four operational axioms of generalized probabilistic theories (GPTs) — causality, no-signaling, local tomography, and continuous reversibility — extended to systems with infinitely many degrees of freedom, necessarily yield quantum field theory…
When Reconstruction Knowledge Exceeds System Information: Thermodynamic and Algorithmic Limits
Reconstructing a scrambled physical or digital system—such as a burned manuscript, a highly entangled quantum state, or a tomographic image—requires auxiliary information that is not contained in the scrambled object itself. Existing reconstruction techniques often assume that the required knowledge…
The Self-Referential Scalar Family: e, the Half-Turn, and the Unification of Information Theory, Statistics, Thermodynamics, and QND Measurement in the Adelic Picture
Standard information theory measures uncertainty at the archimedean place; the adelic program extends it to all completions of the rationals, carrying a p-adic valuation entropy alongside Shannon entropy. This paper shows that the two most familiar distributions of statistical mechanics are already…
Non-Archimedean Syntactic Paradigm for Physics
The prevailing paradigm in modern physics assumes that the universe operates over continuous, Archimedean geometries, leading directly to the widespread belief that quantum information is intrinsically fragile. By projecting fundamentally discrete quantum states onto smooth vector spaces, standard…
Structural Mediation of Planckian Dissipation in Strongly Correlated Electron Systems
The pursuit of macroscopic quantum coherence in strongly correlated electron systems is fundamentally limited by Planckian dissipation, a universal scattering rate that renders active-dynamic control thermodynamically untenable. This paper introduces “Quantum Architectonics,” a design paradigm that…
Base State–Disturbance (BS-D) Ontology
This presents the formalization and computational validation of the Base State–Disturbance (BS-D) Ontology, a framework proposed to resolve the conceptual fragmentation between Quantum Field Theory (QFT) and General Relativity. We posit that physical reality is reducible to two interdependent…
Superfluid Substrate
The paradoxes limiting contemporary physics—from the vacuum energy catastrophe to the thermodynamic scaling of quantum computers—are artifacts of a static ontology. A unified framework is defined where physical systems are topological modes within a dynamic, relativistic condensate. By modeling the…
Emergent Physical Reality
This work presents a comprehensive, first-principles derivation of physical reality, positing that the universe is a hierarchical, emergent structure founded upon a minimal set of foundational postulates governing information, conservation, and logical inference. The argument proceeds in two stages:…
