No External Dimensional Scale at the Level of Admissibility
This paper establishes that no external dimensional scale can be introduced at the level of admissibility within the Cosmochrony framework.
The result is purely structural: admissibility constraints alone do not fix any absolute scale. All dimensional quantities emerge only at the effective level, through projection and spectral structure.
This implies a fundamental scale rigidity:
- admissibility is intrinsically dimensionless,
- any physical scale (length, energy, time) is induced, not fundamental.
The paper belongs to Level 1 (axiomatic layer) of the programme :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}.
It complements the foundational results:
- admissible non-injective transitions as primitive structure :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
- non-injectivity as a structural necessity of emergence :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Within this context, the present result clarifies an essential constraint:
admissibility cannot carry any external dimensional parameter.
This prevents the introduction of arbitrary physical scales at the fundamental level.
The central statement is:
Any admissibility structure compatible with genuine emergence is invariant under global rescaling and therefore cannot define an absolute dimensional scale.
Consequences:
- No fundamental length, time, or energy scale exists at the admissibility level
- Dimensional quantities arise only after projection
- Physical constants correspond to emergent invariants, not primitive inputs
This result interacts directly with several parts of the programme:
Admissibility operates before projection, hence before any effective scale is defined

Scales appear only through spectral quantities (e.g. Laplacian eigenvalues λ)

Effective dimensional structures arise in the large-q / continuum regime
- No Planck scale at the primitive level
- No predefined metric or background geometry
- Dimension appears through spectral or geometric reconstruction
- Scale is tied to projectability and admissibility thresholds
- The theory forbids arbitrary insertion of dimensional constants
- Any consistent extension must respect scale invariance at the primitive level
- Type: structural (axiomatic consequence)
- Dependencies: Axioms A1–A4, non-injective projection
- Role: constraint on all downstream constructions
- Identification of the mechanism by which effective scales emerge from spectral structure
- Relation to renormalisation and spectral entropy functionals
- Connection with continuum limits and effective field theories
