Papers

The Cohesion Dynamics programme is organised into paper series, each addressing a distinct explanatory layer of the theory. Select a series based on what you want to understand.

Research Paper Series

Series	Focus	What you’ll learn	Link
F-series	Foundational Postulates	Ontological commitments and starting assumptions	→ F-series
K-series	Kernel Grammar & Invariants	Structural invariants and compositional grammar any substrate must support (K-KERN)	→ K-series
A-series	Carrier Architectures	Explicit carrier implementations showing how kernel capabilities can be realized	→ A-series
M-series	Formal Mechanisms	How cohesion, construction, modes, tolerance, and phase behavior operate as formal mechanisms	→ M-series
B-series	Quantum Representation	Why quantum structure and Born-like weighting emerge from substrate mechanics	→ B-series
G-series	Geography & Gravity	How time, distance, geometry, curvature, and gravitation arise from substrate	→ G-series
R-series	Reference & Classification	How to interpret, navigate, and relate papers across the theory	→ R-series
E-series	Empirical Narrowing	Systematic testing to narrow possibilities and demonstrate necessity	→ E-series
P-series	Predictions & Tests	Where the theory makes falsifiable claims and empirical predictions	→ P-series
ADR-series	Architecture Decisions	Explicit records of assumptions, options evaluated, and design decisions	→ ADR-series
X-series	Exploratory Research	Simulation-driven exploration in extreme or unexplored regimes	→ X-series

How to Use This Index

Different series invite different types of evaluation:

• F-series: Evaluate ontological commitments and conceptual clarity
• K-series: Evaluate formal grammar specification and kernel invariants
• A-series: Evaluate carrier implementation feasibility and formal coherence
• M-series: Evaluate mechanism definitions and explanatory power
• B/G-series: Evaluate derivations and recovery of known physics
• R-series: Evaluate classification accuracy and consistency
• E-series: Evaluate simulation methodology and reproducibility
• P-series: Evaluate prediction precision and falsification criteria

For detailed guidance on appropriate criticism for each series, see the Research Programme page.
