The General Neutrality Theorem

The General Neutrality Theorem

Neutrality holds at every odd prime, not just 3. The same reflection, at every scale.

The Neutrality Theorem

The Neutrality Theorem

The mod-3 structure holds the penetration together. Remove it and the sum explodes.

The Collision Transform and the Critical Strip

The Collision Transform and the Critical Strip

The centered sum converges at s = 1. Push it below. How far does it survive?

The Collision Periodic Table

The Collision Periodic Table

Forty integers, determined by the last two digits of every prime past 100. Every pair sums to -1.

The Centered Collision Sum

The Centered Collision Sum

Subtract the family bias and the divergence vanishes. The centered sum converges at s = 1.

The Collision Fluctuation Sum

The Collision Fluctuation Sum

I added up the collision deviations. The sum drifted downward, and the drift had a shape.
