| A. Inputs: imported, not derived here | |||
| A1p26001 | $\NPC$-completeness and self-reducibility: satisfiability is $\NPC$-complete (Cook, Levin), the reductions reach combinatorial mathematics (Karp), and polynomial time is invariant across the standard machines (Church–Turing). | I | [Cook 1971; Levin 1973; Karp 1972; Hartmanis & Stearns 1965] |
| A2p26002 | Proof complexity, used as proved: $\NPC=\coNP$ iff some propositional proof system is polynomially bounded (Cook–Reckhow); Extended Frege is not automatizable unless RSA breaks, bounded-depth Frege unless factoring and Diffie–Hellman are feasible, and resolution is $\NPC$-hard to automate. | I | [Cook & Reckhow 1979; Kraj'ivcek 1995; Kraj'ivcek & Pudl'ak 1998; Bonet et al. 2000; Atserias & M"uller 2020] |
| A3p26003 | One-way functions and the average case: the discrete logarithm and factoring as the canonical instances (Diffie–Hellman), Impagliazzo’s worlds; Shor’s order finding, which inverts both for a quantum observer. | I | [Diffie & Hellman 1976; Impagliazzo 1995; Shor 1997] |
| A4p26004 | The three barriers: relativization (Baker–Gill–Solovay), natural proofs (Razborov–Rudich), algebrization (Aaronson–Wigderson); Wigderson’s survey of what a separation must use. | I | [Baker et al. 1975; Razborov & Rudich 1997; Aaronson & Wigderson 2009; Wigderson 2019] |
| A5p26005 | Eckmann and Tlusty: under uniform angle scaling a single walk in $\mathrm{SO}(3)$ reaches the identity only on a measure-zero set, while the doubled walk returns for some exponentially large scaling, delivered non-constructively. | I | [Eckmann & Tlusty 2025] |
| A6p26006 | The corpus: the horizon clause and its complexity face (00:Z1–Z4; 25:G3, 25:G7), the shell theorem (00:Z10; 20:E1, 20:E12), the scale import $\Om=4S+1$ (00:A5), the window ladder $P^{2}<\Om$ (00:B8), the four generative levels (00:B6), the drive of every prime shell (00:A10). | I | |
| B. Computation as counting along a representation | |||
| B1p26007 | A representation $R=(E_R,O_R,c_R)$: an encoding, a finite set of elementary operations, and the cost, the graph distance in $G_R$. $R$ is admissible when it and a standard machine simulate each other with polynomial overhead. Cost is counted in bit operations, $\ell=\log_2P$ for a carrier element and $n$ for a stored length-$n$ object. | D | Def. 2.1 |
| B2p26008 | Cost is a function of the pair (target, representation), not of the target alone: a target far in one chart can be near in another, and the transform between charts is itself a path. “Within the horizon” is a predicate on pairs. | D | Claim 2.2 |
| B3p26009 | The longitudinal turn on the shell: the multiplicative characters $\chi_\nu(g^t)=g^{\nu t}$ are eigenvectors of the scale shift $x\mapsto gx$, with the $(P-1)$-th roots of unity $g^{\nu}$ as distinct eigenvalues; the shift $x\mapsto g^{r}x$ fixes every unit when $(P-1)\mid r$ and none otherwise. | T | Prop. 2.3; A6 master: 00:Z10 |
| B4p26010 | The continuum reading [chart]: the dilation generator $\HH=-\mathrm i(x\partial_x+\tfrac12)$ has $x^{-1/2+\mathrm i\nu}$ as eigenfunction of eigenvalue $\nu$ on $x>0$, so the frequency index is the spectrum of $\HH$ in the chart of the scale shift (20:E1). | T | Prop. 2.3; B3 |
| B5p26011 | The Gauss sum couples the two turns: multiplication by a unit permutes the units; $\sum_{t\neq0}\psi(tc)$ is $-1$ for $c\neq0$ and $P-1$ for $c=0$; $\sum_u\chi(u)=0$ for $\chi\neq1$; hence $\lvert g(\chi)\rvert^{2}=P$ for every nontrivial $\chi$ on the shell ($\Om$ on the Carrier). | T | Rem. 2.4; B3 |
| C. The comprehension horizon | |||
| C1p26012 | Two horizons, nested: the per-instance feasible horizon $H(\ell)$, polynomial in the feasible regime, and the absolute horizon $\Om^{1/4}$, the observer’s total budget in the totality. The totality holds the inverse of every ascent whole, the table of $P-1$ index pairs, below its own count: the endpoint-given oracle. | D | Def. 3.1; A6 |
| C2p26013 | The family’s size and the table beyond the horizon [chart]: at the anchor $2^{204}<\sqrt\Om<2^{205}$, so the shells of the family $P^{2}<\Om$ have at most $205$ bits; $2^{102}<\Om^{1/4}<2^{103}$, so a decision table with one entry per $204$-bit input exceeds the absolute horizon and lies below $\sqrt\Om$. | T | Rem. 4.4; A6 master: 00:B8 |
| D. Proof as a bounded path; certificate as a near-representation | |||
| D1p26014 | The classes in a representation: $L\in\PC_R$ when a $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ uniform rule selects each next operation and the deterministic forward path reaches the decision bit within $H(\ell)$; $L\in\NPC_R$ when a certificate of polynomial length places “accept” within $H(\ell)$ of $(E_R(x),w)$. The axis is find versus exist. | D | Def. 4.1 |
| D2p26015 | Faithfulness: for every admissible $R$, $\PC_R=\PC$ and $\NPC_R=\NPC$. The forward direction simulates each operation in polynomial time and guesses the operation sequence with the certificate; the reverse rewrites a standard computation as an $R$-derivation of polynomial length. | T | |
| D3p26016 | The classes are representation-invariant; what varies with $R$ is the cost of a specific target within a fixed budget. A certificate is a representation in which the far target is near: supplied ($\NPC$) rather than forward-constructed ($\PC$). | D | |
| D4p26017 | Faithfulness is to the class structure on the carrier family: the carrier classes are $\PC$ and $\NPC$, the textbook asymptotic classes their degenerate idealisation. No tower of carriers is admitted; a fixed length admits a decision table, decided by the totality, unreachable below the horizon (C2). | D | |
| E. P versus NP: finding versus checking | |||
| E1p26018 | The search problem $\mathrm{Search}_V$ of $L\in\NPC$ with verifier $V$ and witness bound $p$ maps an instance to a witness or to $\bot$. The near-representation is forward-constructible iff $\mathrm{Search}_V\in\mathrm{FP}$. | D | Def. 5.1 |
| E2p26019 | The crisp form: $\PC=\NPC$ iff $\mathrm{Search}_V\in\mathrm{FP}$ for every $L\in\NPC$, equivalently for $\mathrm{SAT}$; by self-reduction on the variables and the witness-preserving Cook–Levin reduction. | T | |
| E3p26020 | A propositional proof system is a polynomial-time onto map $\Pi$ to $\mathrm{TAUT}$; $p$-bounded when every tautology has a polynomial-size proof; automatizable when some algorithm finds a proof in time polynomial in the tautology and its least proof size. | D | Def. 5.3 |
| E4p26021 | The witness–automatization dictionary: for $L\in\NPC$ with verifier $V$, $\mathrm{Search}_V\in\mathrm{FP}$ iff the certificate system $\Pi_V$ (a witness system, not a system for $\mathrm{TAUT}$) is automatizable; so $\PC=\NPC$ iff every witness system is automatizable. | T | |
| E5p26022 | Finding collapses to checking: if $\PC=\NPC$ then every propositional proof system is automatizable, the proof built bit by bit by self-reduction on the predicate “$\tau$ has a $\Pi$-proof of size at most $s$”. | T | |
| E6p26023 | The gap is finding versus existing: the truth-table system is automatizable but not $p$-bounded, so existence ($\NPC=\coNP$) and discovery are distinct; the known separations condition the gap on the hardness of factoring and the discrete logarithm, the substrate’s descent. | D | |
| E7p26024 | A localizing chart for $x\in L$: an admissible chart in which some witness lies within the polynomial horizon of $\mathbf0$. A constructive localising selector emits, in $\mathrm{FP}$, such a chart with a canonical forward rule whose orbit reaches the witness in $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ steps. Proximity alone is insufficient. | D | Def. 5.7 |
| E8p26025 | Existence is free: for every witness index $m$ of the scale chart the translation $j\mapsto j+(n-m)+1$ of the index cycle is a chart (a bijection of the cycle) that places $g^{m}$ one counting step from the origin, $g=g^{0}\cdot g$. The witness enters only to name the chart. | T | Prop. 5.8; E7 |
| E9p26026 | The selector is the content: a constructive localising selector for every $L\in\NPC$, equivalently for $\mathrm{SAT}$, exists iff $\PC=\NPC$; a selector for a single easy $L$ does not suffice. | T | |
| E10p26027 | The counting distance of a unit along the orbit of $g$ is its index: $m\mapsto g^{m}$ is a bijection of the index cycle onto the units, the distances $1,\dots,P-1$ have mean $P/2$ and maximum $P-1$, between $2^{\ell-1}$ and $2^{\ell}$ for $\ell$ the bit length. | T | Rem. 5.9; A6 master: 00:A12 |
| E11p26028 | Three quantities differ: the naive orbit length (up to $2^{\ell}$ steps), the cost of a specified algorithm (baby-step–giant-step, F3), and the minimum complexity of the descent, the open lower bound. The bijection of E10 bounds none of them. Short to name is not short to find. | D | |
| F. The directional asymmetry is a one-way function | |||
| F1p26029 | Charts and the family: on $\F_P$ the additive chart and the scale chart $(\F_P^{\times},\cdot)\simeq C_{P-1}$; with a fixed generator $g$ the ascent $a_P(j)=g^{j}$ and the descent $d_P=\mathrm{dlog}_g$. The carrier family is $\{\F_P:P^{2}<\Om\}$ (00:B8), input size $\ell$, feasibility $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$. | D | |
| F2p26030 | Ascent is feasible: square-and-multiply computes $g^{j}$ in at most $2\,\mathrm{bits}(j)$ modular multiplications, hence at most $2\ell$ for $j<P$; on the three carriers $17$, $26$, $38$ multiplications at $j=P/3$, right to left with the last squaring skipped [data]. | T | Thm. 6.2; F1 |
| F3p26031 | The descent’s count: with $m^{2}\ge P-1$ baby steps $1,g,\dots,g^{m-1}$ ($m$ entries, one multiplication per step) and at most $m$ giant steps, baby-step–giant-step recovers from $g^{x}$ an index $y$ with $g^{y}=g^{x}$; at most $2m$ operations, $m=\lfloor\sqrt{P-1}\rfloor+1$; $134$, $1334$, $13334$ on the three carriers [data]. | T | § 6; F1 |
| F4p26032 | Three scales: the feasibility budget $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$, exceeded by the descent; the per-instance descent $2\sqrt P$, at most $\Om^{1/4}$ on the family, superpolynomial yet far below carrier scale; the uniform statement that no $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ inverse exists across the family, with no per-instance witness. | D | |
| F5p26033 | A one-way family: each $f_\ell$ computable in $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ while every $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$-time inverter succeeds on at most a sub-horizon fraction of the carrier, the finite-totality reading of negligibility. | D | Def. 6.3 |
| F6p26034 | One-way implies separation: if a one-way family exists then $\PC\neq\NPC$, since inverting $f$ is the search problem of the verifier $[f(x)=y]$, which $\PC=\NPC$ would place in $\mathrm{FP}$. | T | |
| F7p26035 | The scale-descent residue: the ascent family $\{a_P\}$ on the carrier family is one-way, $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ forward and inverted by no $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ forward computation. Decided by the totality, beyond the bounded observer; the complexity literature posits the same statement as the discrete-logarithm hardness assumption (00:Z4). | Ω | master: 00:Z4 |
| F8p26036 | If the scale descent is one-way (F7) then $\PC\neq\NPC$. | T | |
| F9p26037 | The native locus: ascent is a horizon-bounded forward count, descent its inverse below the horizon; $\PC\neq\NPC$ follows from F7 one way, the converse not known. The single arrow of the drive is the structural reason for the residue, the descent the time-reversed branch a composed observer cannot freely take. | D | |
| F10p26038 | The descent is the inverse coordinate map: $a_P:j\mapsto g^{j}$ is the bijection of $C_{P-1}$ onto $\F_P^{\times}$ carrying the time index to its position, and $d_P=\mathrm{dlog}$ its inverse, a cyclic-group coordinate, not the inverse of the multiplicative Fourier transform (B3). | T | master: 00:A12 |
| F11p26039 | The scaling flow returns the doubled walk: Eckmann and Tlusty’s two facts (A5) read on the shell as the find–exist split, a designated point unreachable by the single scaling, the relaxed target met non-constructively at an exponential scaling. A geometric parallel, not a lower bound. | I | |
| G. The arithmetic-hierarchy closure | |||
| G1p26040 | The four primitive roles on $\F_P$ with the generator $g$: succession $x+1$, addition $x+a$, multiplication $mx$, fixed-base exponentiation $a_P(j)=g^{j}$, each the previous iterated with a fixed operand; the fourth is the top, its inverse the discrete logarithm. | D | Def. 7.1 |
| G2p26041 | Ladder closure: the four roles generate the two cyclic structures, $C_P$ additive and $C_{P-1}$ multiplicative, with the bridge $a_P$. A tower exponent $g^{j}$ is read modulo $P-1$, so tetration is exponentiation of a reduced index, and the power map acts on the index as multiplication; no third cyclic structure hosts a fifth role (00:B6). | T | master: 00:B6 |
| G3p26042 | Phase-index dynamics: in the scale chart $x=g^{m}$ the power map acts by $P_k(g^{m})=g^{km}$ and its iterates by $P_k^{\,r}(g^{m})=g^{k^{r}m}$, the exponents read modulo $P-1$; the ascent is the orbit traversal $g^{j+1}=g\cdot g^{j}$, one multiplication per counted step. | T | Thm. 7.3; G1 |
| G4p26043 | The one-way function is the inverse of the last role: each forward role costs one modular operation, the ascent at most $2\ell$ multiplications; the descent recovers the index, the position in the counted orbit of the fourth role. The descent/ascent operation ratio at the three carriers is $134/17$, $1334/26$, $13334/38$ [data]. | T | |
| G5p26044 | The power map $P_k$ is a bijection of $\F_P^{\times}$ iff $k$ is invertible modulo $P-1$, inverted by $x\mapsto x^{a}$ with $ak\equiv1$; otherwise its image is the cycle of $g^{d}$, $d=\gcd(k,P-1)$, of exactly $(P-1)/d$ elements. | T | Rem. 7.5; G3 |
| G6p26045 | The index cycle $C_{P-1}$ is the abelian hidden-subgroup datum on which Shor’s transform acts, the chart H5 marks as the hard classical case. The one-way map is the exponential $a_P$, whose inverse is the discrete logarithm, not the power map, which is efficiently inverted when bijective (G5). | D | |
| H. The transform map | |||
| H1p26046 | The two quarter turns as a structured correspondence: the transverse turn (the additive transform) is forward-computable classically on a stored vector; the longitudinal turn’s period is reached by a $\BQP$ observer through order finding, not by reading a transform vector. A correspondence between charts and the observers that reach them, not a complexity theorem. | D | |
| H2p26047 | A chart change $T$ is forward-computable when $T$ and $T^{-1}$ lie in $\PC$; a problem is transform-diagonalisable by $T$ when its instances become pointwise in the $T$-chart. Well defined for abelian and hidden-subgroup problems, not a feature of $\NPC$ at large. | D | Def. 8.2 |
| H3p26048 | Fourier-diagonalisable implies $\PC$: the additive transform on the shell is exact and self-inverse, $T^{-1}T=1$ on the full cycle $n=P-1$ (the round trips on the sub-cycles $n=8$, $256$, $2^{16}$ over $\F_{17}$, $\F_{257}$, $\F_{65537}$ [data]); the cyclic convolution costs $n^{2}$ multiplications in the position chart and $\tfrac32n\log_2n+n$ through the transform ($1\,048\,576$ against $16\,384$ at $n=2^{10}$) [data]. | T | |
| H4p26049 | Structured witness sets are forward-localizable: when the witnesses of $x$ are the solutions of an affine $\F_2$-system readable from $x$, Gaussian elimination returns a particular solution $w_0$ and a basis; the chart $w\mapsto w-w_0$ places $w_0$ at $\mathbf0$ and every solution within the basis’s size in counting steps. | T | |
| H5p26050 | The scale chart is the hard case: the discrete logarithm is the carrier’s native order-finding instance, reached by a $\BQP$ observer and, under F7, by no classical forward computation; factoring is a distinct instance not covered by F7. A correspondence on structured instances, not a boundary theorem. | D | |
| J. The scope and the barriers | |||
| J1p26051 | A universal constructive selector would invert the one-way family: applied to the inversion family of a one-way $f$ it inverts $f$ in $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$; under F7 none exists, and its non-existence is equivalent to $\PC\neq\NPC$ (E9). The natural-proofs reading is an analogy, the density not established. | T | |
| J2p26052 | The barriers as obstructions: relativization treats the shell as a featureless sphere, natural proofs forbid a large generic marking where the hardness is the non-generic alignment with the arrow, algebrization adds an algebraic oracle the carrier’s scale arithmetic replaces. The reading is a locus, not a technique the barriers exclude. | D | |
| K. The horizon clause and the residue | |||
| K1p26053 | $\Om$-hard: a statement the totality decides and whose instance witnesses are checkable at sub-carrier scale, while its uniform forward-findable certificate is carrier-scale, below the bounded observer’s horizon. Decidable, not undecidable: settled at the scale of the whole (00:Z3). | D | § 10; A6 master: 00:Z3 |
| K2p26054 | The three faces: the shell theorem’s classical screen value in 20-rh (every mode on the self-dual line; classical RH as the count equality, $\Om$-hard in its uniform form), the uniform per-$n$ Goldbach bound, and the forward-invertibility of the scale descent are one horizon clause, decided by the totality beyond the bounded observer (00:Z2). | D | master: 00:Z2 |
| K3p26055 | Frequency and the spectrum [chart]: the frequency chart is the spectrum of the scale shift on the shell (B3), the dilation generator its continuum reading (B4, 20:E1). The Hilbert–Pólya correspondence is a target of 20-rh, not a result; the spectral and the computational faces meet on the one $\HH$-axis as a reading. | D | |
| K4p26056 | An arrow-forward computation: a $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$-length path applying only the drive-forward operations of the carrier. | D | |
| K5p26057 | Why the single arrow stops short of a proof: forbidding the inverse outright is circular; admitting every $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ operation makes the exclusion $\mathrm{dlog}\notin\mathrm{FP}$, which implies $\PC\neq\NPC$ one way; the closure removes the circularity (G4) and leaves the lower bound as the residue. | D | |
| K6p26058 | The irreducible residue: the uniform certificate that the inverse of the last role has no $\mathrm{poly}(\ell)$ forward algorithm across the carrier family, the computational face of the horizon clause, decided by the totality and below the bounded observer’s horizon (00:Z4). | Ω | master: 00:Z4 |
