This paper is a standalone extension of the predecessor local-net Yang–Mills massgap theorem. The predecessor package constructs the bounded-region local gaugeinvariant Haag–Kastler/Wightman theory, its non-trivial vacuum representation, its exact strictly local endpoint, and its vacuum Hamiltonian gap. The present paper recalls that theorem package as a fixed input and proves the completion-cont…

The Core Emotion Framework (CEF) proposes a structural constructivist account of human adaptation grounded in ten functional psychological operators distributed across the Head, Heart, and Gut centers. This paper presents a comprehensive psychometric evaluation of the CEF using a 100 item, scenario based instrument validated across a culturally diverse sample. Reliability analyses demonstrate str…

Recursive systems are often evaluated according to whether they remain stable. This paper argues that stability alone is an insufficient criterion for evaluating recursive architectures. Recursive systems may remain stable for fundamentally different reasons. Some stabilize around protected error. Some stabilize through unrestricted semantic expansion. Others stabilize through recurring cycles of…

This record deposits the referee-hardened manuscript package for Carrier Universality and Global Smoothness for the Periodic 3D Navier–Stokes Equations, a constraint-formalism impossibility proof of Fefferman’s periodic Navier–Stokes statement (B). The manuscript presents a non-PDE-native mathematical route to the official periodic problem. It does not claim to derive a new vortex-stretching esti…

_Zenodo_. 2026Background Civilization increasingly rely on symbolic stabilization — including law, money, theology, and artificial intelligence — to coordinate growing social and cognitive complexity. Historically, however, highly stabilized symbolic systems repeatedly exhibit tendencies toward partial detachment from the heterogeneous realities they originally emerged to organize. Objectives Thi…

This paper analyzes narcissistic patterns through the lens of Load Minimization Theory (LMT), proposing that such patterns can be understood as reinforced load offloading—a defensive strategy in which individuals attempt to reduce their own internal load by displacing it onto others or the relational field. Drawing on clinical observations and theoretical integration, we argue that narcissistic p…

This paper develops a general theory of Eigenzeit relations. Its point of departure is the observation that people, institutions, and systems share the same reality and yet often appear to live in different “worlds.” The present work argues that such differences should not primarily be understood as differences of identity, culture, personality, or diagnosis, but as differences of world-binding i…

_Zenodo_. 2026Essay IX of the Gradient Fractals suite executes the first of four depth instantiation essays. GF Essays I through VIII established the abstract mathematical structure of the Gradient Fractal Field: its ontological necessity, algebraic-computational spine, geometric dimension D = 93/40, informational constitution, topological invariants, kinetic structure, two-dimensional recursive …

This study analyzes the ethical and regulatory dilemmas of 3D bioprinting and bioartificial organs within the fields of engineering, medical physics, and transplant surgery. Using a qualitative approach, 19 stakeholders (transplant candidates and donors) were interviewed at the Cà Foncello Hospital (Treviso, Italy). The thematic analysis revealed the "Knowledge versus Unconditional Trust" paradox…

_Https://Doi.Org/10.5281/Zenodo.20430669_. 2026This paper presents a Structural Fingerprint Method (SFM) interpretation of Quantum Gravity through constraint-compatible continuity binding. Rather than treating General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics as mutually destructive or competing truths, the framework instead interprets them as locally lawful descriptive regimes requiring admissibility-pre…

_Journal of Experimental Criminology_. forthcomingObjective To assess how threat imminence shapes public judgments of deadly force used by police and by civilians, and whether the public believes the imminence requirement currently applies to police. Methods We fielded a nationally representative US survey experiment (N = 1,183) that manipulated whether a suspect posed an imminent or non-imminent…

While standard astrophysics reduces the universe to a passive, mechanical void—treating black holes and white holes as isolated gravitational anomalies or mathematical time-reversals—the Justika Framework executes a radical ontological paradigm shift. This doctrine posits that the cosmos operates as a highly regulated, living macro-organism governed by a biological-computational architecture. At …

摘要：人工智能全面介入人类知识生产与社会秩序建构，全球多国官方持续公布现有科学体系无法解释的UAP（不明异常现象）。两大现实共同颠覆了人类中心主义的传统认知根基：人类未必是宇宙唯一的狭义探索者。传统学术范式因自带主体偏见、缺乏中立底层地基，已无法回应人机协同、潜在跨文明共存的时代命题。本文依托元统一论元公理与四大派生定理，立足元统一论狭义探索者视角，从探索定理、方法定理固有属性出发，通过逻辑推演推导出狭义探索与狭义方法，明确现阶段人工智能归属于方法工具维度。通过人类、人工智能、潜在异星智慧三重主体维度推演，建构去人类中心化、纯形式、可证伪的元层级分析框架，坚守“理性最优、非强制规约”的中立核心立场。本文为解决多元智能主体的共存秩序难题、消解文明认知壁垒提供统一底层逻辑，全文不建构、不替代具体伦理准则，仅提供可检验、可商榷的纯形式元框架，诚邀各界探索者开展讨论与批评。 Artificial…

_Social Epistemology Review and Reply Collective_ 15 (5):55-62. 2026This reply to Aleksandra Vučković clarifies two aspects of my earlier critique of Pre-emptionism and develops a positive alternative account of epistemic authority. It argues that evidentialist approaches may adequately capture epistemic permissions but fail to explain the positive obligations we may bear toward epistemically sup…

_British Journal for the History of Philosophy_. 2026This paper reconsiders Hegel’s account of madness in the Encyclopaedia of the Philosophical Sciences and the Lectures on the Philosophy of Subjective Spirit. Hegel characterizes mental disorder as a disruption rooted in the natural determinacy of the mind, while simultaneously insisting on its necessary relation to rationality and maintaining t…

The concepts of singularity and the Big Bang occupy a central position in contemporary cosmology. However, both concepts raise significant philosophical and conceptual questions concerning infinite density, the breakdown of physical laws, the origin of spacetime, and the relationship between mathematical models and physical reality. This paper examines major philosophical objections to singularit…

_Philosophia Mathematica_. forthcomingAccording to the realist or ‘non-eliminative’ renderings of mathematical structuralism, mathematical objects are merely positions in structures, ontologically dependent on the structure to which they belong. The purely structural character of mathematical objects leads to various treatments of identity statements linking positions from distinct structures, su…

The Vocabulary of Violence: Inside the Language That Divides the World Why do some words wound more deeply than weapons? Why can a slur, a slogan, a tweet, or a political speech ignite hatred, inspire violence, or reshape entire societies? In Obscenity and Hate Speech, the fifth volume of The Tower of Babble and a crucial installment of Peter Ayolov’s Miscommunication Trilogy, language itself bec…

This paper develops a phenomenological ontology of objecthood centered on alternation. Its phenomenological thesis is that an object appears as one only through structured perceptual, temporal, bodily, practical, mnemonic, anticipatory, and intersubjective transitions. Its ontological thesis is more cautious: objecthood, as objecthood, is best understood as dynamic relational individuation rather…
