Reyes identified2025Wave Confinement TheoryView details

The Reyes research program proposing that persistent physical structure can emerge from confined oscillatory fields organized by spectral selection, phase, curvature feedback, and topology.

Reyes identified2025Recursive AI DriftView details

Progressive semantic, behavioral, or goal deviation produced by repeated self-processing, self-training, or agentic recursion.

Reyes identified2025Resonance-Confinement ArchitectureView details

A Reyes AI architecture that models cognition and memory as bounded resonant states regulated by coherence, entropy, and drift controls.

Reyes identified2025Density-Weighted Loop CurvatureView details

The WCT closed-loop curvature–torsion scale averaged with local field/energy density and used in the covariant rest-energy locking construction.

WCT linked2025Wave Curvature ScalarView details

The WCT scalar used to represent local wavefield curvature relative to field amplitude and to supply the curvature quantity used by later feedback constructions.

WCT linked2025Wave Curvature ComputationView details

The WCT computation model that bounds local evolution by explicit curvature, time, bandwidth, precision, and stability resources.

Reyes identified2025Curvature-Bounded ComputationView details

A physical computation model in which admissible states and algorithms are limited by finite curvature, bandwidth, precision, locality, and stability resources.

Reyes identified2026Logarithmic Curvature FlowView details

The WCT flow obtained by rewriting the curvature dynamics in logarithmic field variables and analyzing localization/filament solutions.

Generic result2025Self-Emergent Fourier CymaticsView details

The WCT spectral-dynamics construction in which broadband or chaotic initial fields self-organize into finite-band, eigenmode-like structure under the declared evolution.

Reyes identified2025WaveLockView details

An experimental cryptographic research architecture using nonlinear PDE evolution, path-dependent curvature commitments, deterministic replay, and drift-sensitive invariants.

WCT linked2025Finite-k Lyapunov band-passView details

The WCT/PFF Lyapunov rail that selects a bounded nonzero wavenumber band while suppressing infrared and ultraviolet growth.

Reyes identified2025Zero-Wave InvarianceView details

The PFF property that the declared zero-wave seed state remains invariant under the minimal substrate dynamics.

WCT linked2025Curvature-Koide InvariantView details

A WCT relation connecting a Koide-like mass ratio to spin-dependent curvature harmonics through a geometric invariant.

Reyes identified2025WCT Ghost-Mode NeutrinosView details

The detector-facing WCT phenomenology in which a small ghost-mode/log-energy modulation is superposed on standard neutrino-oscillation structure and propagated through detector resolution.

Reyes identified2026Bin-Stable Log-Periodic StructureView details

The named atomic open-data result class in which an inferred log-periodic frequency remains stable across declared histogram-bin choices and null checks.

Reyes identified2025Long-lived photon resonance confinementView details

The experimental phenomenon label for a cavity response reported to persist substantially beyond the initiating optical excitation.

Reyes identified2026Curvature-Induced Log-Periodic Deformation of C9(q²)View details

The WCT flavor-phenomenology construction in which C₉(q²) receives a curvature-motivated log-periodic q²-dependent deformation rather than only a constant shift.

Reyes identified2025Propagation–correction criticalityView details

The RCA stability threshold comparing recursive error-propagation rate with available correction/damping rate.

Wrong definition2025Confinement Termination PrincipleView details

The RCA principle that unsafe symbolic evolution terminates when it exits declared confinement bounds.

Not tested2025Physical Symbolic Kill LogicView details

An RCA substrate-level termination rule triggered when declared entropy, curvature, or coherence bounds are violated.

Not tested2025Semantic anchor decayView details

Progressive loss of stable grounding, reference, or identity-bearing semantic relationships during recursive processing.

Not tested2025Coherence mirageView details

An RCA failure regime in which fluent surface behavior remains convincing while semantic anchoring or constraint fidelity degrades.

Generic result2025Geometric Curvature RateView details

The local WCT geometric rate combining path curvature and torsion into the invariant scale used by the loop-mass construction.

Not tested2026Active-domain windingView details

Integer winding measured over the active spectral or q² domain after baseline repair and veto handling.

Not tested2026Koide-Comb GeometryView details

The WCT/open-data geometric arrangement of candidate spectral frequencies or residual wells tested against Koide-like relations.

Not tested2025P_WCCView details

The class of problems decidable with polynomial resources in the declared WCC model.
