• third operator of the tri-kernel
  • ∂H/∂τ = -LH, H₀ = I, so H_τ = exp(-τL)
  • temperature τ controls scale
  • answers: “what does the graph look like at scale τ?”
  • high τ explores (annealing), low τ commits (crystallization)
  • provides adaptive context — the thermostat of collective attention
  • positivity-preserving, semigroup: H_{τ₁} H_{τ₂} = H_{τ₁+τ₂}
  • Chebyshev polynomial approximation gives h-local computation with bounded error
  • locality: Gaussian tail decay, h = O(log(1/ε)) hops
  • the adaptation force — metabolism, phase changes, the ability to shift
  • universal pattern
    • physics: thermostat, phase changes
    • biology: metabolism, immune plasticity
    • ecology: seasons, succession, disturbance
    • economics: booms, busts, revolutions
  • together with diffusion and springs forms the tri-kernel that computes cyberank
  • see tri-kernel for completeness proof
