Polylaminin, Microtubules, and the k-nacci Spine: A Mathematical Framework for Neural Regeneration, Cancer Resonance, and the Multifractality of the Fabric of Matter

We derive three results from a single algebraic object: the k-nacci recurrence w (n+k) = sum₈=₀^k-1 w (n+i), whose dominant spectral radius ηₖ is the largest real root of Pₖ (η) = ηᵏ − η^ (k−1) − ⋯ − η − 1 = 0. Result 1 (Biological geometry): The cross shape of the laminin heterotrimer — three short arms and one long arm — is forced by the contact condition α ∧ dα ≠ 0 on a contact 3-manifold with three generative axes. The shape is derived, not fitted. Result 2 (Fractal self-assembly): Acid-induced polylaminin (polyLM / polyLN521) self-assembles in vitro into fractal honeycomb networks with measured Hausdorff dimensions dH ∈ 1. 55, 1. 70. We show that dH = log b / log η₃, where η₃ ≈ 1. 839286755 is the Tribonacci spectral radius (k=3) and b ∈ (2. 57, 2. 82) is the hexagonal lattice branching factor. The fractal is inevitable: any hexagonal chiral contact-manifold polymer with three generative axes produces this family of Hausdorff dimensions. No parameter is free. Result 3 (Fabric of matter): The multifractal singularity spectrum f (α) derived from the k-nacci pressure function is a property of the contact 3-manifold itself, not of any particular physical realization. Every system realizing the same admissible contact topology — from atomic crystal lattices to cosmic web filaments — inherits the same f (α). The spectrum is substrate-blind. Three falsifiable clinical predictions follow: (C. 1) resonance-selective cancer cell disruption at νc ≈ 221. 8 kHz, derived from first principles; (C. 2) autophagy flip from cytoprotective to cytotoxic; (C. 3) axonal density scaling as η₃^ (ΔdH) ≈ 1. 10 across polylaminin networks of different Hausdorff dimensions, testable in rodent SCI models. All polylaminin Hausdorff values refer to acid-induced polymerization (pH ≈ 4, Ca²⁺-dependent) in vitro. Native basement-membrane laminin is not claimed to be identically fractal. Laminin–MT coupling is mechanochemical via the dystroglycan–integrin axis; direct laminin–tubulin binding is not claimed. SCI regeneration claims are supported by preclinical data (rats, dogs) and early human safety data; polylaminin remains investigational.
