Key Points

The research aims to resolve the QCD glueball hierarchy using a 10D mycelial network model.
Introduced a mycelial network model to replace traditional boundary string field theory.
Calculated properties of scalar and tensor glueballs using geometric and mass relationships.
Predicted the existence of an exotic glueball based on hyphal structures.
Scalar 0++ glueball produced from a single filament with mass ratio M/m_rho=2.694.
Tensor 2++ glueball formed from a 6-strand braid, exhibiting a mass ratio of M/m_rho=4.545.
Exotic 0-+ glueball predicted with M/m_rho=3.812 and mass of 2.955 GeV.

Abstract

Seventh paper in the BSFT/AdS7×CY3 series. Replaces tree-level Boundary String Field Theory with a 10D mycelial network model where the IIB vacuum hosts closed-string hyphae whose 3D projections are glueballs. Key results: - Scalar 0++: Single filament, L²=3. 114, M/mᵣho=2. 694, geodesic- Tensor 2++: 6-strand braid, 40 anastomoses, c1=-40, M/mᵣho=4. 545, 0. 1% vs lattice- Prediction: Exotic 0-+ at M/mᵣho=3. 812, M=2. 955 GeV from double hypha Mechanism: Mass = hyphal length, Spin = hyphal thickness, α' corrections = fusion count. Anastomosis with CY curvature reduces effective length by factor 1+c1/tₑff. Falsifiability: Model fails if lattice M₀-+ outside 3. 20, 4. 42 GeV. LVS inputs: gₛ=0. 12, I1=214, n1=3. 0, tₑff=76. 0 from 0++ geodesic. Reproduce: python micelialₙetworkᵥ3PaperVII. py
