Choose the guide that matches your expertise.
The CMAC corpus is large ([cmac key=“papers”] papers, [cmac key=“identities”] identities) but navigable. Each guide provides a tailored reading path, expected time investment, and what you can safely skip.
By Expertise
For Mathematicians
Start with pure graph theory. No physics required.
P002 → P001 (§1–3) → P004 → P009
~4 hours for core proofs
For Particle Physicists
From bandwidth constraint to gauge algebra to fermion masses.
P001 → P002 → P004 → P003 → P005 → P007 → P017
~8 hours full path
For Cosmologists
Gravity, special relativity, Hubble tension.
P011 → P010 → P020 → P012
~4 hours
For Philosophers
Foundations and speculative extensions.
P001 → P028 → P029
~3 hours
For Skeptical Referees
The defensive guide. Every objection answered.
CMAC_REF005 → Run verification scripts
~2 hours minimum
Quick Reference
| Guide | Primary Papers | Time | Prerequisites |
|——-|—————-|——|—————|
| Mathematicians | P002, P001, P004, P009 | 4h | Graph theory, linear algebra |
| Particle Physicists | P001–P017 | 8h | QFT basics |
| Cosmologists | P011, P010, P020, P012 | 4h | GR basics |
| Philosophers | P001, P028, P029 | 3h | None |
| Skeptics | CMAC_REF005, P005 | 2h | Willingness to run code |
Before You Begin
- Run the 60-second verification. Before evaluating anything, run:
python3 CMAC_MATH_P002_Verification_v2.py
This proves the infrastructure works.
- Check the tier labels. Every identity is labeled MP/PD/ST/CJ. You always know the confidence level.
- Note the gaps. The programme has 8 closed gaps and 1 open (G9: conformal vs isometric transition). The gap register is public.
