Paper
The Shape of Musical Possibility — Camera-ready volume
Historical March 2026 collection of the original three essays. It predates the current manuscript review and the fourth website essay.
Historical download, pending revision. This book-style volume collects the original three essays with unified front matter, figures, and consolidated bibliography. A revised edition will align the narrative language with the current AMS proof paper, especially the gap/order distinction, finite Ck root-forgetting, and corrected fiber counts.
Relationship to other documents: This volume is the public-facing companion. For the full proof trail and current formal authority, see the revised proof paper. For an interdisciplinary technical treatment, see the technical survey.
