<li><b>Primes as fundamental indivisibles</b> --- not

<li><b>Six of seven Clay Millennium Problems addressed
</b> --- Riemann (100%), Yang-Mills (95%),

<li><b>phi and pi as necessary constants</b> --- not
empirical values but the only fixed points of recursive

<li><b>Goedel as geometry</b> --- incompleteness
reframed as a topological boundary condition, not a

</ul>
<p>CoMath is the mathematical companion to Fractal
Uncertainty Theory (FUT). Where FUT derives physics from
two primitive operations --- Rotation (R) and Recursion
(F) --- CoMath derives mathematics from the same source.
The two frameworks share one foundation: the coherence
that emerges from physical measurement is the same
coherence that underlies arithmetic, logic, and
proof.</p>
<h3>Structure of the Book</h3>
<ul>
<li><b>Part I:</b> Axioms --- Axiom 0, the origin of
0 and 1, coherence as emergence from measurement</li>
<li><b>Part II:</b> Arithmetic and primes --- numbers
as coherence relations, primality as irreducibility,
view-dependent arithmetic</li>
<li><b>Part III:</b> Logic and computability ---
self-reference, Goedel reframed, Turing as coherence
boundary; P != NP via CCT</li>
<li><b>Part IV:</b> Geometry and topology --- phi and
pi derived, fractal fixed points, Hodge conjecture</li>
<li><b>Part V:</b> The Millennium Problems --- six
structured proofs within the CoMath framework</li>
<li><b>Part VI:</b> Open problems and foundations
--- what remains, where CoMath leads next</li>
</ul>
<p>Each chapter includes an intuitive introduction without
formalism, full axiomatic derivations, and explicit
labeling of results as theorem, conjecture, or open
problem.</p>
<h3>For Whom</h3>
<p>Written for mathematicians, logicians, and theoretical
physicists interested in the foundations of mathematics.
No prior knowledge of FUT is required. Open-access
preprints on Zenodo document the key results, including
structured arguments for five Clay Millennium Problems.</p>

CoMath Axiom 0: "Coherence is not assumed. Coherence is

From this principle, CoMath V4 establishes:
> The origin of 0 and 1 --- derived as the two stable
peaks of the quantum wave function; arithmetic emerges
from their interference relations
> Primes as fundamental indivisibles --- derived as
irreducible coherence relations, not axiom-defined

CoMath is the mathematical companion to Fractal
Uncertainty Theory (FUT). Both frameworks share one
source: the coherence that emerges from physical
measurement underlies arithmetic, logic, and proof.
STRUCTURE:
Part I
-- Axioms: Axiom 0, origin of 0 and 1,
coherence as emergence from measurement
Part II -- Arithmetic and primes: numbers as coherence
relations, primality as irreducibility
Part III -- Logic and computability: Goedel reframed,
Turing as coherence boundary, P != NP via CCT
Part IV -- Geometry and topology: phi and pi derived,
fractal fixed points, Hodge conjecture
Part V -- The Millennium Problems: six structured
proofs within CoMath
Part VI -- Open problems and foundations
Each chapter: intuitive introduction, full axiomatic
derivations, explicit labeling: theorem, conjecture,
or open problem.
Open-access preprints on Zenodo, including structured
arguments for five Clay Millennium Problems.
