Incompatible Mathematical Descriptions and Hidden Switching Errors in Quantum Thought Experiments
Preprint of a conceptual paper on hidden switching errors in quantum thought experiments. The paper argues that many well-known paradoxes arise not from internal inconsistency of quantum theory itself, but from silent transitions between incompatible mathematical descriptions, su...

Secondary Universe Theory (SUT) proposes that persistent false belief structures share a common architecture across domains: a clearly defined function served by a systematically undefined mechanism, in which a deus ex machina — an agent, force, or principle — bypasses cause and...

Structures and Processes (S&P): A Stipulative Framework for Observable Structures
We present a stipulative framework for observable structures: Structures and Processes (S&P). A structure is any pattern demarcated by some observer; a process is any mechanism or activity, requiring no observer to occur. The framework's core claim is that what we call an observa...

The proliferation of highly integrated, fast-coupled architectures has rendered traditional linear control theory obsolete for preventing catastrophic cascading failures. Under fast load, disturbances do not propagate linearly but via radial causality, where injected energy sprea...

We develop a minimal effective Einstein–scalar model for studying high-curvature black-hole interiors using a bounded saturating scalar potential. The construction is intended as an effective closure rather than a fundamental theory or a claim of a complete regular black-hole sol...

Abstract This paper examines how modern and postmodern philosophical traditions treat the relationship between ethics and ontological grounding. Modern philosophy, from Kant through natural law theory, generally assumed that moral claims require metaphysical foundations, whether...

QUALIFIED EMPIRICISM: Science Honoured Within Its Domain
Abstract The relationship between empirical science and theological knowledge has been framed predominantly through two inadequate paradigms: conflict models that subordinate one to the other, and independence models that isolate them into incommensurable domains. Both fail to ac...

Causal inference seeks to predict the outcome of interventions from observational data \emph{under explicit causal assumptions}---for instance, predicting patient recovery under a new drug protocol based on historical medical records, estimating the effects of genomic interventio...

ILLUMINATION: THE HOLY SPIRIT'S WORK IN UNDERSTANDING
Abstract This paper articulates the pneumatological dimension of knowing within MKS®-Thronaxis, the Metadisciplinary Knowledge System. While previous publications in the MKS corpus have established Revelation (Axis I) as ontological ground and Inspiration (Axis II) as the divinel...

The Energy-Deficit Hypothesis of Autism
🇬🇧 ENGLISH This hypothesis paper proposes that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may be conceptualized as an immune-metabolic disorder in which multiple maternal pro-inflammatory cytokines—including TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and IFN-γ—converge on fetal mitochondrial dysfunction during pre...

THE AUTHORITY OF SCRIPTURE: Norma Normans in MKS™-Thronaxis
Abstract The authority of Scripture stands as the single most consequential epistemological commitment within any theological framework, yet contemporary theology has rendered it structurally ambiguous, affirmed in confessional statements while functionally undermined by methodol...

Abstract Social belonging, defined as temporally stable “frequent, affectively pleasant interactions with a few other people” (Baumeister & Leary, 1995, p. 497), is a fundamental human need and a crucial determinant of well-being. Despite its importance, gaps persist in our u...

Quantum implicit neural representations for 3D scene reconstruction and novel view synthesis
Abstract Implicit neural representations (INRs) have become a powerful paradigm for continuous signal modeling and 3D scene reconstruction, yet classical networks suffer from a well-known spectral bias that limits their ability to capture high-frequency details. Quantum Implicit...

<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background</bold> : Clinician-scientists are widely regarded as critical for translational medicine, yet many systems struggle to sustain a stable clinician-scientist workforce. Existing research often assumes a single linear identity pipeline and fo...

AFIRE: Accurate and Fast Image REconstruction Algorithm for Geometric-Inconsistent Multispectral CT
Abstract. For nonlinear multispectral computed tomography (CT), accurate and fast image reconstruction is challenging when the scanning geometric parameters under different X-ray energy spectra are inconsistent or mismatched. Motivated by this, we propose an Accurate and Fast Ima...

Quantum Resource Comparison for Two Leading Surface Code Lattice Surgery Approaches
Hamiltonian simulation is one of the most promising candidates for the demonstration of quantum advantage within the next ten years, and several studies have proposed end-to-end resource estimates for executing such algorithms on fault-tolerant quantum processors. Usually, these...

Robotic group formation with phosphorescent trails
<title>Abstract</title> Stigmergy is an alternative to direct communication if unavailable. We evaluate whether group formation tasks are possible for swarm robots using stigmergic communication. Our aim is to control the size of a group. We show this is possible in experiments u...
