Description

The Alzheimer's Toroid: Memory does not "fade." Memory gets trapped.

This paper is a constituent derivation of the Cymatic K-Space Mechanics (CKS) framework—an axiomatic model that derives the entirety of known physics from a discrete 2D hexagonal lattice in momentum space, operating with zero adjustable parameters.

Empirical Falsification (The Kill-Switch)

CKS is a locked and falsifiable theory. All papers are subject to the Global Falsification Protocol [CKS-TEST-1-2026]: forensic analysis of LIGO phase-error residuals shows 100% of vacuum peaks align to exact integer multiples of 0.03125 Hz (1/32 Hz) with zero decimal error. Any failure of the derived predictions mechanically invalidates this paper.

The Universal Learning Substrate

Beyond its status as a physical theory, CKS serves as the Universal Cognitive Learning Model. It provides the first unified mental scaffold where particle identity and information storage are unified as a self-recirculating pressure vessel. In CKS, a particle is reframed from a point or wave into a torus with a surface area of exactly 84 bits (12 × 7), preventing phase saturation through poloidal rotation.
