Selected Works
PortusSophia™: Series Integrator, Dependency Map, and Reader’s Guide
2026 | Preprint DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.6161806 Contributors: James Roy Dennis
A reader-facing integrator paper mapping the series, its dependency structure, reading paths, and guardrails against misclassification. It presents the series as a constraint-first descriptive program and explicitly states non-goals, dependency relations, and evaluative guardrails.
Schema Epistemics: Knowledge as Constraint-Bearing Structure
2026 | Preprint DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.5945995 LensID: 098-223-989-985-589 Contributors: James Roy Dennis
A foundational paper introducing Schema Epistemics as a framing in which knowledge is treated as constraint-bearing structure rather than mere assertion, correctness, or compliance. This work is publicly indexed through SSRN and also has a Lens scholarly work record.
Velocity Degradation in Hierarchical Multi-Agent Systems Under Discard
2026 | Preprint DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.6238041 Contributors: James Roy Dennis
An applied paper analyzing structural limits on effective velocity in hierarchical multi-agent coordination under discard and uncertainty. It demonstrates PortusSophia™ in action on a technical problem rather than only as an internal governance language.
Research Posture
PortusSophia™ research outputs are published independently. The framework provides structural discipline for inquiry and review; it does not function as doctrinal authority. All claims remain open to critique and revision.
