ppflib - Physics-Prime Factorization Library
A comprehensive Rust library implementing the Physics-Prime Factorization (PPF) mathematical framework for exploring quantum mechanics through number theory.
Overview
The PPF framework extends classical number theory by treating -1 as a special "Sign Prime", creating multiple valid factorizations for integers and enabling a number-theoretic model of quantum phenomena. This library provides a complete implementation with algebraic, topological, and geometric realizations.
Key Features
- Factorization State Spaces: Complete enumeration of valid P-factorizations S(n)
- Quantum Collapse: Modeling (-a) × (-b) = ab transitions
- Sign Prime: The unique negative prime (-1) enabling quantum behavior
- Algebraic Structures: State space ideals, P-prime spectrum, homological algebra
- Topological Analysis: Simplicial complexes, Galois groups, Betti numbers
- Geometric Realizations: IOT metric, tautochrone operators, Hilbert spaces

Core Concepts
Factorization State Spaces
Every integer n has a state space S(n) containing all valid P-factorizations:
use *;
let s6 = new?;
for factorization in s6.factorizations
// Negative integers create quantum state spaces
let s_neg6 = new?;
for factorization in s_neg6.factorizations
Quantum Collapse
When two quantum states multiply, they can collapse to classical states:
let s_neg2 = new?; // Quantum state
let s_neg3 = new?; // Quantum state
let result = multiply?;
// Result is S(6) - a classical state!

Mathematical Framework
The Sign Prime
PPF introduces -1 as a "Sign Prime", creating quantum behavior in number theory:
- Classical states: S(n) for n > 0 (limited factorizations)
- Quantum states: S(-n) for n > 0 (expanded factorizations via sign prime)
- Quantum collapse: (-a) × (-b) = ab (quantum → classical transition)
IOT Geometry
The IOT (Involuted Oblate Toroidal) metric provides geometric realization:
- Critical ratio: r/R = 1/30 (derived from variational principle)
- Toroidal embedding of factorization spaces
- Geodesics and parallel transport
- Connection to quantum field theory
Topological Structure
Factorization spaces have rich topological properties:
- Galois groups: Gal_P(n) ≅ (ℤ₂)^(k-1) for k distinct primes
- Euler characteristic: χ = 0 (toroidal topology)
- Betti numbers capture dimensional structure
- Homological algebra connections
