Modified Fundamental Constants

Modified Fundamental Constants are the physical constants a universe inherits at its birth — Planck time, the speed of light and the gravitational constant — scaled from the parent's values by the density at collapse. Across recursive cosmological cycles, universes inherit not fixed constants but scaled variations shaped by density, entropy and curvature at collapse; temporal resolution, light speed and gravitational coupling each shift with computational boundary conditions, giving a spectrum of physical possibilities while keeping dimensional coherence. The book concludes that the so-called fundamental constants are adaptive parameters rather than universal absolutes. Pulse Rhythm Inheritance, ①⥂⧖'⌂ = α × ①⥂⧗⌂ × f(ρ⦰) [𝕋], carries the same density scaling into the half-cycle pulse time, keeps each child dimensionally consistent and enables Parametric Diversity across the Recursive Cosmological Tree. The book gives three scalings: ①⥂⧗'⌂ = ①⥂⧗⌂ × f(ρ⦰) [𝕋], 𝒞→' = 𝒞→ × g(ρ⦰) [𝕃·𝕋⁻¹], and G' = G × g(ρ⦰)⁵ [𝕄⁻¹·𝕃³·𝕋⁻²], where ①⥂⧗'⌂, 𝒞→' and G' are the modified Local Pulse Tempo (Planck time), light speed and gravitational constant, ①⥂⧗⌂, 𝒞→ and G their values in the parent universe, f and g are dimensionless scaling functions [∅] and ρ⦰ is the density at universe formation [𝕄·𝕃⁻³]; the gravitational constant follows the child's light speed to the fifth power, so G' = G on the typical ladder, where g = 1. It connects to Inheritance Transformation, Pulse Duration Inheritance, Parametric Diversity, Parametric Inheritance, Fundamental Constant Variations, Gravitational Coupling and Recursive Cosmological Tree.
