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.

Critical Values on a Non-Uniform Number Line: Bifurcation Markers, Normalization Dependence, and the Conjectured Specialness of Physical Constants
We examine the conjecture that the real number line, as a model of physical state space, is misleadingly uniform: that certain parameter values act as topological phase boundaries rather than smooth increments, and that fundamental constants such as the fine-structure constant $\alpha \approx 1/137$…
The Universe Category: A Single Functor Encoding Quantization, Stability, and Factorization
This paper proposes a single categorical object — a functor from the divisibility category of the positive integers to the category of smooth compact manifolds — and investigates whether its image simultaneously encodes three structures that have historically been treated as separate: quantization…
The Harmonic Paradigm Under Ostrowski’s Theorem: A p-Adic/Adélic Re-Evaluation with Helical Compton Vortex Synthesis
The Harmonic Paradigm (V1.0–V4.0) proposed the harmonic oscillator as the universal IR attractor of quantum theory, spanning an 8-rung ladder from transmon anharmonicity to quantum gravity. Its bibliography cited Vladimirov-Volovich-Zelenov p-adic QFT (1994) and Ostrowski's theorem (1918), invoking…
Adelic Quantum Error Correction: Intrinsic Qubit Protection from Ostrowski
We formalize an adelic approach to quantum error correction (QEC) based on Ostrowski's theorem: the only non-trivial completions of the rational numbers are the Archimedean (real) completion $\mathbb{R}$ and the p-adic completions $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and these topologies are mutually singular. The…
Ratio-Based Adelic Physics
The tension between continuous Archimedean spacetime paradigms and discrete, non-Archimedean topological realities constitutes the central mathematical bottleneck in modern complexity science, hindering the unification of quantum mechanics, spin glass phase dynamics, and cognitive psychophysics.…
General Theory of Process
Modern science is currently fragmented into siloed disciplines—quantum mechanics, artificial intelligence, network science, and signal processing—each describing complex systems using disparate vocabularies. This manuscript proposes a general theory of process, asserting that these fields are not…
Superfluid Vacuum Theory
The historical incompatibility between general relativity and quantum mechanics is identified not as a fundamental paradox of nature, but as an artifact of the “binning error”—the methodological fallacy of mistaking emergent topological stability for fundamental discreteness. This paper proposes a…
