The Theory of Persistence

PT mathematics

Mathematical atlas of persistence

These pages show the mathematical mechanics of PT: the constrained continuum, persistence points, the sieve, GFT, prime cycles, thresholds, and informational applications.

We often picture the numbers as a straight line unfolding forward. PT reads them differently: as soon as residues modulo prime numbers are taken seriously, that line closes into cycles. At increasing depth, the bare line gives way to phase mechanics: discrete points are the remarkable, stable, readable traces of that continuum under constraint.

map

From principle to demonstrators

The proposed order starts from the general mechanics of survivors, moves through GFT and prime channels, then opens toward visualizations and mathematical/informational applications.

Each page keeps its status visible: identity, theorem, derivation, exploration, or tool. This is deliberate: the site must be clear about what is proved and what is still a research path.

01 derivation

Mechanics of survivors

How a continuous mechanics of constraints makes remarkable persistence points appear.

02 theorem

Prime gaps and survivor gaps

Reading prime gaps as a limiting case of gaps between sieve survivors.

03 theorem

Why prime numbers?

Why primes appear as irreducible channels of persistence.

The sieve as a dynamics

Reading the sieve not as a mere algorithm, but as a filtration dynamics.

GFT as a mathematical first principle

Understanding $\log_2(m)=D_{KL}+H$ as exact conservation of the information budget.
