No External Dimensional Scale at the Level of Admissibility

This note proves a Level-1 scale-rigidity theorem: the admissibility structure of Foundation M cannot be deformed by an independent dimensional scale without breaking spectral scaling, structural non-injectivity, or bounded admissibility closure.

Overview

The admissibility structure of Foundation M is built from a single primitive dimensional scale, the Born-Infeld saturation scale \(c_\chi\), entering the admissibility bound \(A_n \le c_\chi / \sqrt{\lambda_n}\).

The central question of this note is whether one can consistently deform this structure by adding another dimensional parameter.

The answer is negative at Level 1: any deformation that introduces an independent dimensional parameter breaks at least one of BFS-consistent spectral scaling, structural non-injectivity, or bounded admissibility closure.

The result supplies the structural backing for the exclusion of Reissner-Nordström and Schwarzschild-de Sitter deformations used in Q6b.

Scope statement. The paper proves a negative rigidity result. It does not claim that all emergent scales are already fully determined as functionals of \(c_\chi\); that stronger Level-2 statement remains open.

Main contributions

The rigidity mechanism

The proof distinguishes three possible deformations of the admissibility bound.

Interpretation

The result should be read as a Level-1 rigidity theorem.

It does not forbid emergent scales. It forbids independent dimensional scales being inserted into the admissibility axioms.

Derived quantities such as \(\delta_{\mathrm{pair}}\), \(\beta^*\), mass ratios, or spectral thresholds remain admissible precisely insofar as they arise as outputs of the spectral admissibility cascade rather than as additional inputs.

Relation to Q6b

Q6b derives effective spacetime geometry from the admissibility operator and uses flux conservation to select the Schwarzschild exterior solution.

Reissner-Nordström and Schwarzschild-de Sitter geometries require, respectively, an independent electromagnetic charge scale \(Q\) or an independent cosmological scale \(\Lambda\).

The no-scale theorem supplies the structural reason why these deformations do not belong to the admissible exterior class of Q6b: they require dimensional input not present in A3-A4.

Relation to the Cosmochrony programme

This note belongs to the foundation track. It complements the axiomatic paper Foundation M, the structural non-injectivity theorem ENI, and the Q-series papers deriving gauge and spacetime structure from admissible non-injective projection.

Its role is not to add new physics, but to restrict the admissible space of extensions: any downstream construction must respect the absence of independent dimensional scales at the admissibility level.
