Migrated from CHARTER.md (deprecated). This defines QWAV's scope, constraints, success criteria, and non-negotiable design decisions.
Date: 2026-05-22 Status: Active Program: QWAV
- Computational validation of ultrametric (
$p$ -adic, tree-based) quantum computing architectures - Specification and validation of glass-box AI architectures (Q-PNA) on Bruhat-Tits trees
- Open-access publication of all results on Zenodo with registered DOIs
- Interactive artifact development for every publication (D13 compliance)
- Spinoff project initiation and handoff to Projects agent
- Social media distribution via Buffer (Mastodon, Bluesky, Twitter/X)
- Strategy documentation and maintenance (7 core docs + phase docs)
- Application submission to merit-based funding programs
- Cross-project coordination with sibling projects (ultrametric_v2, Tree Distance Cophenetic, etc.)
- Maintenance of the 673-release Obsidian corpus as intellectual genealogy
- Physical laboratory experiments (no hardware access -- D1)
- Peer-reviewed journal submissions (D2 -- open-access only)
- Live pitching, networking, or conference attendance (D3 -- written-only)
- Team-building or co-founder recruitment (D4 -- solo founder)
- Credential-based evaluation pathways (D5 -- substance-first)
- External collaborator dependencies (D12 -- single LLM thread completable)
- Paper-only publications without interactive companion (D13)
- Cold outreach emails (inbound-only engagement)
- Patent filings without funded conversion plan
- Entity formation without specific funding trigger
- VC/accelerator path
| # | Criterion | How Measured |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5 interactive artifacts deployed on GitHub Pages | Each artifact live at QNFO.github.io/, verified via browser |
| 2 | qwav.tech public site live with thesis, evidence, and artifact directory | Site deployed, all links functional, geometric aesthetic |
| 3 | Publication cadence: 1 new Zenodo publication every 2-4 weeks | Zenodo community page shows regular activity |
| 4 | At least one substantive inbound contact from published work | Email or message from qualified researcher who engaged with artifacts |
| 5 | At least one application acceptance from merit-based programs | Acceptance letter or funding award from submitted application |
| 6 | Evidence Deck grows monthly with new computational results | Monthly commit to Evidence Deck with verified new data |
| 7 | All 7 core documentation files maintained and committed per session | git log confirms documentation commits per session |
| Constraint | Value | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Human attention budget | Solo founder -- all decisions flow through one person | Force-Multiplier model: human time is the scarce resource |
| Session limit | 1-2 sessions/day, ~30 sessions/month max | Sustainable pace for solo founder with LLM augmentation |
| Deliverable deadline | None -- cadence-based, not deadline-based | Quality and sustainability over artificial urgency |
| Domain boundaries | No wet lab work, no experimental physics, no hardware fabrication | Computational physics and AI specification only |
| Publication model | Open-access Zenodo with DOIs only | No paywalls, no peer review gatekeeping |
| Distribution model | Interactive artifacts > papers. Inbound-only engagement. | Evidence shows papers aren't read; artifacts engage |
| Git model | Feature branches only. Never commit to main. | CPL L1, L20: prevents cross-contamination |
| Depends On | Type | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Projects agent (DeepChat) | Resource -- executes spinoff computational work | Active |
| Buffer API | Resource -- social media distribution | Active |
| Zenodo API / manual upload | Resource -- DOI registration and publication | Active |
| GitHub (QNFO org) | Resource -- code hosting, artifact deployment | Active |
| DeepSeek/DeepChat LLM | Resource -- strategy, writing, analysis | Active |
| Domain registrar (qwav.tech, qwav.org) | Decision -- DNS configuration for live site | Requires founder action |

| Source | Relevance | Action |
|---|---|---|
| 673 releases in Obsidian/releases/ (2024-2026) | Intellectual genealogy -- the raw material from which QWAV thesis was refined | Curate top 30 as K2 |
| ultrametric_v2 project (7 sprints, 260K+ MC trials) | Computational validation engine -- all Tier 0/1 evidence | Cite DOIs, deploy code as interactive artifact |
