Temporal Delay Under Spatial Accessibility Restriction in a Native SU(2) Substrate

Gravitype V8. 0 — Experiment This record contains the paper “Temporal Delay Under Spatial Accessibility Restriction in a Native SU (2) Substrate” together with its reproducibility context. V8. 0 is an experimental Gravitype release. It tests whether restricting the spatial accessibility of reconciliation updates, while leaving the substrate and update schedule unchanged, produces a deterministic temporal delay in relaxation. The paired observable is the threshold-crossing delay Δτ₅0 (s) = τ₅0 (RESTRICTED) − τ₅0 (NATIVE) with τ₅0 defined as the first timestep at which total frustration falls below a fixed fractional threshold. Across 200 paired realizations at ρ = 0. 1, the delay is strictly positive for all seeds, with median Δτ₅0 = 2, min = 1, max = 4, W = 20100, and p = 4. 64 × 10^-37 (one-sided). Deterministic replay yields zero mismatches, placebo controls are null, and mask enforcement is stable under a fixed BARRIER configuration. This release is the temporal complement to V7. 0: where V7. 0 establishes accessibility-defined regime divergence, V8. 0 establishes a direct temporal consequence under a locked native-substrate protocol. It serves as an empirical bridge to later interpretive work on relaxation-based time.
