# **Unresolved Comments and Specific Textual Changes Required** After cross-referencing the **working draft** with the **reviewer’s comments**, the following unresolved issues remain. These changes are **not yet addressed** in the provided draft and require attention: --- # **1. Directed Graph (Section 6)** **Issue**: The dependency graph for gravity still references \( i \times \kappa \times \tau \) instead of the corrected \( \rho_{\text{info}}(\epsilon) \times \kappa \times \frac{d\tau}{d\epsilon} \). **Required Change**: Update the graph to: ``` Existence (X) ├─► Information (i) │ └─► Gravity (g) ←─ [ρ_info(ε) × κ × dτ/dε] │ └─► Change (Δi) └─► Sequence (τ) ``` **Location**: Section 6 (Directed Graph Representation). --- # **2. Equation Labels in Main Text** **Issue**: Equations in the main body (e.g., Sections 4.1, 5.1) lack numbered labels (e.g., “Equation 1”), making cross-referencing impossible. **Required Changes**: - **Section 4.1 (Entropy)**: Add label: \[ H_{\text{continuous}} = -\int_{\tau} p(i) \log p(i) \, di \quad (1) \] - **Section 5.1 (Gravity)**: Add label: \[ g \propto \rho_{\text{info}}(\epsilon) \cdot \kappa \cdot \frac{d\tau}{d\epsilon} \quad (2) \] - **Section 5.2 (Consciousness)**: Add label: \[ \phi \propto m \cdot \lambda \cdot \rho \quad (3) \] --- # **3. Section 7.6 (Testing Continuum-Discrete Dynamics)** **Issue**: The original comment requested a dedicated subsection (7.6) for continuum-discrete experiments, but the draft includes this content under “Testing the Continuum-Discrete Duality” without a formal subsection. **Required Change**: - **Add Subsection 7.6** with the following structure: ``` 7.6 Testing Continuum-Discrete Dynamics 7.6.1 Wavefunction Collapse - Prediction: \(\kappa \propto 1/\epsilon\). - Experiment: Photon polarization with tunable detector resolution. 7.6.2 Quantum Gravity - Prediction: Planck-scale spacetime quantization. - Experiment: LHC upgrades to detect non-geodesic paths. 7.6.3 Entropy Transitions - Prediction: Quantized entropy jumps in black hole analogs. ``` **Location**: After Section 7.5 (Consciousness Testing). --- # **4. URL and ORCID Formatting** **Issue**: The ORCID link in the header contains a space (`0009 -0002-4317-5604`), and the website URL may need verification. **Required Changes**: - **ORCID**: Remove the space: ``` ORCID: https://orcid.org/0009-0002-4317-5604 ``` - **Website**: Verify `http://qnfo.org` resolves correctly (no action needed if functional). --- # **5. Gravity Equation in Section 5.1** **Issue**: While the equation uses \( \frac{d\tau}{d\epsilon} \), the accompanying text does not explicitly state that \( \rho_{\text{info}} \) depends on \( \epsilon \). **Required Change**: Add clarification in **Section 5.1**: > “Gravity arises from information density (\( \rho_{\text{info}}(\epsilon) \)), contrast (\( \kappa \)), and the rate of sequence progression relative to resolution (\( \frac{d\tau}{d\epsilon} \)).” --- # **Summary Of Unresolved Edits** | **Section** | **Change** | |--------------|------------| | Section 6 | Update gravity dependencies to \( \rho_{\text{info}}(\epsilon) \times \kappa \times \frac{d\tau}{d\epsilon} \). | | Sections 4.1, 5.1, 5.2 | Add numbered equation labels (1), (2), (3). | | Section 7 | Add formal subsection 7.6 for continuum-discrete experiments. | | Header | Fix ORCID formatting. | | Section 5.1 | Clarify \( \rho_{\text{info}}(\epsilon) \) dependency. | These changes ensure **full alignment** with the reviewer’s feedback while preserving resolved updates (e.g., references, equation fixes). No prior work is undone.
