This seems to be pseudoscience spam. Also from the author:

one suggestion. There is the main paper, as well as supplemental supporting papers on Zenodo. Just download them. Read them. Or...if you don't have time, feed all of them to a reasoning AI and ask for analysis. Ask if it breaks GR. Ask if it is coherent. Hint. It is. And it is falsifiable...not with stuff that maybe exists either...data that exists now or will in the very near future.

crank check:

  - AI "collaboration" 
  - pure maths in a cosmology paper 
  - Zenodo 
  - small number of citations from a wide range of dates 
  - cosmology
One of my favourite youtube videos is Angela Collier's one on cranks, she makes the point that a motivated independent researcher can do science if they choose less ambitious problems, but these people always choose the deepest and most fundamental problems in maths and physics.

> citations from a wide range of dates

Ouch, really? That's basically just work that's not in the current hot topics. Not really a datapoint in favour of 'crank', rather a point against 'active academic/student'. I think it's admirable to look for value in older work.

This working paper extends the Resolution Cosmology framework to the microscopic sector, proposing that the fine structure constant (α) is not a fundamental input to physics but a derived efficiency ratio of the "resolution cascade"—the sequential commitment of quantum possibility to geometric record.

Anchored by the Pokorny et al. (2020) experimental demonstration of quantum resolution dynamics, and utilizing a rigorous Shannon channel capacity derivation, the framework models α as the efficiency of the resolution channel bounded by thermodynamic noise. This inversion reveals that the observed "stiffness" of physical constants (β ≈ 10⁻⁵) is actually a direct measurement of the exponential dominance of primordial Planck-epoch constraints over current thermal noise (SNR ≈ e¹⁰⁰'⁰⁰⁰).

The paper yields a specific, falsifiable prediction for the redshift evolution of the fine structure constant (Δα/α ≈ -β ln(1+z)) consistent with current quasar absorption constraints. Furthermore, by integrating the Tolman temperature relation derived in the companion framework, it demonstrates that spatial variation of α must correlate with large-scale matter distribution, offering a unified explanation for the Webb dipole . This document supplements the main "Resolution Cosmology v5.2" framework and is released as a work in progress to stimulate discussion on the informational origins of physical constants.

I will be hanging around to answer any questions you may have; happy Saturday!
