This work demonstrates the structural impossibility of P = NP, suggesting a fundamental boundary in problem-solving complexity.
In this work, it is shown that the P vs NP problem is not merely unsolved, but structurally ill-posed in its classical formulation. Starting from a systemic comparison between prime number recognition and NP-completeness, a common principle becomes visible: global structures that emerge cannot be reconstructed by local procedures. The central thesis is: every previous attempt to solve NP problems using deterministic algorithms of class P implicitly employs the same structural projection that must, in fact, be overcome. What becomes visible is therefore not merely a technical failure, but an ontological boundary: P = NP is not only unlikely – it is structurally impossible. This insight is not obtained through algorithmic construction, but through analysis of the underlying forms of order.The result is a structural proof of P ≠ NP that returns the question to its origin: How does structure arise – and where does it collapse in representation?
