This is the live research map for shape theory: a framework that derives mathematics, physics, cognition, biology, and more from one axiom.
Persistence is the capacity to change while preserving identity.
Everything on this map traces back to that single axiom through a chain of derivations. The map shows what has been derived, what is in progress, and what remains.
Wiki view is the text view. Browse volumes, papers, and individual claims. Follow dependency links to see what each result builds on, and emergence links to see what builds on it.
Graph view is the visual view. See the full dependency structure as a force-directed graph. Click nodes to explore. Toggle groups in the legend to focus on specific volumes.
Switch between views with the toggle in the header. Links between views are preserved: clicking "graph" on a paper page shows that paper's graph.
Claims follow a scientific progression. Nothing is ever "confirmed," only tested and not yet falsified.
Every claim traces back to Paper 01 (Persistence Structure), which derives from the axiom alone. When you see a dependency arrow, it means the result cannot be established without the thing it points to. The entire map is a single connected derivation.
Coverage percentage is a human estimate of how much of a volume's predicted territory has been written. 100% does not mean "complete forever," it means "everything currently predicted has been addressed." New predictions expand the territory.
The canopy map is updated as papers are written and claims are established. New volumes, papers, and claims appear as the research progresses. The site itself is iteratively improved alongside the research.
Papers are free and always will be. Read the blog at girlwithponytail.com.
