Mating strategies, whether sexual or asexual, confer unique costs and benefits to populations and species that facilitate evolutionary processes. In wild isolates of Caenorhabditis elegans, mating strategies are dependent on developmental history. Outcrossing significantly increa...

This article examines whether quantum indeterminacy provides a sufficient metaphysical basis for libertarian free will. It argues that although quantum mechanics may undermine the strongest form of classical physical determinism, the existence of objective chance does not by itse...

The PANDIV series extends the SEND governance failure documented in PASEND (SSRN 6765758) to its full moral and economic consequence, establishing the systematic destruction of neurodivergent human capital as a quantifiable, repairable governance failure. The series introduces th...

Singularity Regularization and the Emergent Planck Scale in the Logarithmic Superfluid Vacuum
This is a clarity revision. The physics, the derivation, and the result — the Planck length emerging as the condensate healing length by self-consistency — are unchanged. The main change tightens one claim that was overstated. The earlier version said dimensional analysis alone u...

This version retracts and replaces the previous one at this DOI. The earlier version ("Frozen Vacuum Perturbations as a Dark Matter Analogue in the Logarithmic Superfluid Vacuum") proposed that frozen perturbations of the vacuum density act as a dark-matter analogue, supplying an...

How two conducting plates reshape the photon spectrum without retuning the photon The ideal parallel-plate Casimir coefficient is familiar. The sharper question is what mathematical operation a conducting boundary performs on the physical photon space. This paper constructs that...

Version 3 (2026-08) — CORRECTION of the published v2 record. (1) The hand-curated bilateral matrix is corrected from USD 27.84B to USD 27.61B; JPMorgan's equal-split share from USD 5.10B / 18.3% to USD 4.79B / 17.3%; HHI from 1214 to 1063 equal-split and from 2011 to 1657 lead-ar...

The Kármán constant κκ in the logarithmic law of wall turbulence is a universal constant whose accepted value is approximately 0.41, yet for more than a century it has generally been treated as an empirical parameter. In the framework of global realism, we derive κκ from first pr...

The Physical Essence of Decoction: From Molecular Extraction to Charge Topology Transfer
Traditional Chinese medicine decoction has long been viewed as a chemical extraction process—water decocting dissolves the active components of medicinal herbs, and molecules are considered the sole carriers of medicinal efficacy. This paper proposes a competing hypothesis: the c...

This paper proposes a novel conceptual framework and geometric model evaluating black hole inte-riors as continuous, non-singular thermodynamic cycles. The physical limits governing macroscopicquantum phenomena suggest a structural mechanism that avoids geometric infinities, prom...

Complex evidential reasoning often involves events whose occurrence depends on several qualitatively different processes and evidence items whose relevance crosses those processes. The difficulty is not that established probability theory is inadequate within a well-defined model...

Entros Protocol: A Framework for Temporally-Consistent, Decentralized Proof-of-Personhood
The proliferation of sophisticated AI and bot networks necessitates robust methods for verifying human uniqueness and liveness in digital ecosystems. Existing Proof-of-Personhood (PoP) solutions rely on centralized authorities, invasive static biometrics, or socially-correlatable...

On the Axial Nature of Relativistic Quantum Interactions
This record contains an early preprint draft of a research paper on the intrinsic fields of fundamental particles. Conventional frameworks of physical interactions inherently rely on bipartite descriptions, necessitating static central fields to govern conservative forces. This p...

Finite Character-Trace Saturation and the Limits of Vertex-Based Class-Function Cascades
The Cosmochrony relaxation cascade generates an inter-generational mass hierarchy through the contraction of the Kesten–McKay spectral support as the effective valence $p(n)$ grows. The cascade exponent $\beta$ in $p(n) \sim n^\beta$ is the sole remaining free parameter: O3 const...

SkillFortify: Formal Analysis and Supply Chain Security for Agentic AI Skills
The rapid proliferation of agentic AI skill ecosystems—exemplified by OpenClaw (228,000 GitHub stars as of February 2026) and Anthropic Agent Skills (75,600 stars at the same date)—has introduced a critical supply chain attack surface. The ClawHavoc campaign (January–February 202...

Timeless Dual Equilibrium Cosmology (TDEC) v2.1 [WITHDRAWN]
Timeless Dual Equilibrium Cosmology (TDEC) v2.1 [WITHDRAWN] WITHDRAWN AS A SCIENTIFIC CLAIM (August 2026). The central quantitative result of thispaper, that a CPT-conjugate mirror sector reproduces the observed dark-matter-to-baryon ratio,rests on an arithmetic error of roughly...

Effective Kinematic Deformation in Gauge Sectors An Interaction-Dependent GUP Framework
Purpose: Standard Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) models with a universal deformation parameter () are under increasing tension from precision Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) and LHAASO observations. This work resolves the tension by introducing an interaction-dependent framework i...

Despite its central role across psychology, philosophy, and neuroscience, the concept of the self has resisted a unified definition. This persistent difficulty stems not from a lack of theoretical effort, but from ontological ambiguity, disciplinary fragmentation, and the frequen...

Beyond Content: Consciousness as an Interface-Coordinating Biological Process
Contemporary approaches to consciousness often emphasize neural activity, representational content, or informational complexity, yet frequently lack a clear account of how conscious experience achieves coherence across time, meaning, and self-reference. In this work, we propose a...

Why Consciousness Cannot Be Metaphysical: Evolutionary, Biological, and Linguistic Constraints
This paper argues that consciousness cannot be coherently understood as a metaphysical or non-biological phenomenon. Drawing on converging evidence from evolutionary biology, neuroscience, linguistics, and cognitive science, it demonstrates that consciousness degrades with neural...
