Phase 46 · resonant adjacency / adjacency as primitive

What if next-to is fundamental?

AT-0363 → AT-0372, canonical AT-0391 → AT-0400. Deterministic toy null seed 363. Adjacency is treated as a dynamical variable in its own right and effective distance is derived only afterwards. The headline rate this produces is a null, not a finding: the compatibility that drives the bond was inserted into its own equation.

The lesson before the numbers

Plain language

Instead of moving through the map, ask whether the rule that decides what counts as a neighbour can change.

SeedSeed 363 reproduces the recorded null benchmark.Trials — 2500Random phase pairs integrated in the null baseline.Strong threshold — 0.65Bond value above which a pair is called strongly adjacent.Bond gain — 0.324Strength of the compatibility forcing written into the bond equation.Nonlinearity — 2.592Self-reinforcement term b²(1−b) in the bond dynamics.Bond decay — 0.680Linear decay of the bond when nothing is driving it.Candidates — 24Destinations competing for the bond in the selectivity challenge.Ring nodes — 64Ordinary ring from which effective distance is derived after the bonds exist.Noise level — 0.15Detuning noise used in the robustness sweep.Drift rate — 0.010Slow drift of internal frequency, which forces retuning.Activation cost — 6.0Charge for one bond activation event. Never zero.Identity coupling — 0.22How strongly a transit through the bond disturbs the traveller.
