Author/Declarant: Feng YulingAffiliation: Independent ResearcherDate: October 30, 2026 DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.23813037• Deposit Type: Establishment of Priority and Timestamping for Academic Theoretical InnovationI. Overview of Core Content and Research ScopeThe complete research manuscript associated with this deposit presents a fundamental theoretical deconstruction and reconstruction of the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH)—a central conjecture in contemporary theoretical computer science.• Research Focus: Computational Complexity Theory, Geometry of Discrete Hypercubes, Saturation of Algebraic Ideals, and Topological Invariants.• Key Contribution (Abstract): Moving beyond traditional algorithmic engineering and complex treewidth decomposition approaches, this work—grounded in pure mathematical topology and geometric first principles—demonstrates that the "exponential wall" (long regarded as an immutable barrier within the conventional framework) is not an insurmountable causal constraint, but rather a mathematical illusion stemming from coordinate system distortion and the failure of assumptions regarding independent degrees of freedom. The research fundamentally establishes that the hypothesis is, in fact, a false proposition within the context of pure mathematical structures.II. Confidentiality and Declaratory Terms1. Priority Establishment: This declaration serves to establish—via cryptographic means—the author’s original authorship and priority of intellectual property rights within the aforementioned theoretical domain.2. Omission of Technical Details: To safeguard intellectual property and the integrity of the research, this declaration (and any publicly released excerpts) excludes specific underlying mathematical proofs, detailed constructions related to the saturation of polynomial ideals, and the parameters derived for dimensional collapse. The complete core derivations and formal content have been securely locked within an encrypted manuscript. 3.
