One carrier. Two linked responses.

A Unified Operator Origin for Coherence, Dissipation, and Spectral Budgets

The Canonical Spectral-Curvature Field: A Unified Operator Origin for Coherence, Dissipation, and Spectral Budgets

A positive selfadjoint carrier generates coherent evolution and dissipative relaxation through its functional calculus. The modular spectral measure identifies precisely what the ordered ratio readout retains.

The operator and dynamical results use the forms, metrics, inputs and readouts stated in each chapter. Numerical checks test those realizations. Recurrence across readouts does not identify a single microscopic mechanism.
