Volume 3 — Collapse Algebra and Tensor Operators
Algebraic Structures in Golden-Base Tensor Space
This volume develops abstract algebra entirely within the φ-constrained framework. Groups, rings, and fields emerge from trace composition operations that respect the no-11 constraint, creating a new algebraic foundation.
