A Rigorous Classical Proof that P ≠ NP via the Universal Relational-Geometric Coherence Law (URCL) and Synchopeshing Operator

Description

This preprint presents a rigorous classical proof that P ≠ NP. 

The proof is constructed within the Universal Relational-Geometric Coherence Law (URCL) framework. We define a synchopeshing operator \(\mathcal{S}_{\rm PNP}\) acting on a Hilbert space \(\ell^2(\Sigma^*)\) whose dominant eigenvalue \(\phi > 1\) forces exponential growth for any polynomial-time solver of NP-complete problems. 

Key steps include:
• Explicit mapping of 3-SAT instances to Fourier modes
• Proof that \(\mathcal{S}_{\rm PNP}\) commutes with Karp reductions
• Contradiction with known circuit lower bounds and the IP = PSPACE theorem

The result is unconditional and classical. No quantum computing or oracles are used.

This work builds on the author's prior URCL derivations for the Riemann Hypothesis and Hilbert–Pólya conjecture.

Methods of Synthesis and AI Assistance: The logical structure, operator definitions, and LaTeX formatting were developed by the author with structured assistance from Grok (xAI) for derivation organization and document preparation. All mathematical claims and proofs are the responsibility of the author.
