Decorated Loop-Spaces I: Foundations and Applications
Classical loop-spaces capture cyclic behaviour in topology but are blind to the auxiliary data that often drives real-world quasi-periodic phenomena. In this paper we introduce decorated loop-spaces, ...

Hi, so you said most cranks reach out to men. Here, I am hoping to balance the ratio out a bit.

Some Aspects of Quasi-Quanta
This paper discusses q-quanta, or quasi-quanta, which are entitities which contribute very high order terms to their environment. If the density of these q is sufficiently high, then they exert measur...

New #preprint, though this one is more metaphysical than my others. I discuss the activation/actualization of potential via the erasure of fiction. The #math here is very conceptual, more along the lines of "soft computation"

Selective Revelation and the Erasure of Fiction: Symbolically Notating the Theory of Museums
This document introduces some notations for the concepts of selective revelation, which in Museum Theory is the evolution of truth over time. I put forth the notion that the beginning of the universe ...

🚩 New #preprint
We model open strings with internal defects as stratified manifolds, using bimodules and factorization algebras to generalize Chan–Paton factors. Result: suppressed entanglement, braided statistics, and epistemic obstructions

Phenomenology of Chan-Paton Defects on Open Strings
This paper investigates the rôle of defects on extended quantum objects by generalizing the Chan-Paton factors of string theory as bimodules, wherein left-and right-actions encode brane dynamics. We i...
