Abstract

Tier 1+ Pass-1. 5 paper 43 of 45. ITU-derived meta-mathematics on axiom + proof + model + consistency + provability. Mathlib growth + AlphaProof IMO 2024. 7. 25 + ARC-AGI o3 87. 5%. Defines Kₘeta = -log ρₘeta as the operator-algebraic modular Hamiltonian on Hₐxiom ⊗ Hₚroof ⊗ Hₘodel ⊗ Hconsistency ⊗ Hₚrovability. Kₘeta inherits from KQG via the CLPW 2023 type II crossed-product specialised to this scale. Numerical results.
