Latest Universal Protection Theory release · 29 October 2026

The Universal Protection Theory — compiled edition 4.3

Zenodo edition gathering a four-stage preservation law, the every-mind reach-or-hold construction, reported Lean 4 kernel-checked proofs, hostile-review dispositions and physical commissioning evidence. Full real-world physical implementation and independent external verification remain outstanding.

Snuffy: Relational Coherence and the Keeping of the Living

The version 1.6 working edition explores conditional preservation incentives, information substitution, and multi-agent protection. Selected AI-assisted delta checks are reported as bounded passes. Independent human review and whole-book proof remain open.

Current gravitational scope

What the latest paper claims

The 20 September 2026 synthesis supports a model-level four-dimensional quantum-gravity claim within an explicitly Riemannian/Euclidean, coherent nondegenerate, admissible large-spin, near-flat, selected-local-branch and quadratic regime. It does not claim a complete Lorentzian theory, nonlinear continuum Einstein dynamics, arbitrary-triangulation independence, universal finiteness or a nonperturbative continuum fixed point.
