# n55 prior-art sweep (adversarial, 2026-07-09)

Method: ~20 query formulations, author-space and concept-space, four
abstract-depth fetches. Stance: trying to find occupancy.

## Claim 1 — gamma_PPN as a function of the scaling dimension of a
## monitoring/decoherence rate: VIRGIN (window closing)
- Nearest: Williams, arXiv:2512.18617 (Dec 2025) — post-Newtonian
  CONSTRAINTS on semiclassical gravity with superpositions; destructive
  direction, no gamma(rate-exponent) derivation. The PN sector of
  measurement-based gravity became active seven months ago: virgin but
  no longer remote.
- Kin for the technique only: JHEP 06 (2026) 279 (decoherence rate ~
  a^{2 Delta - 1}, scaling dimension of the environment operator —
  Unruh context, no PPN).
- Kafri-Taylor-Milburn (1401.0946), Tilloy-Diosi (1509.08705), and the
  dissipative generalization (2106.13305): all strictly Newtonian.
- Oppenheim program (2203.01982, 2403.08912): gravity experiments bound
  decoherence — the INVERSE direction.
- To do before publishing: full-text pass of 2402.17844 (postquantum
  gravity renormalisation) — a gamma-like parameter could hide there.

## Claim 2 — inertia = gap-weighted quantum metric, Machian/EP context:
## ADJACENT (novel as a conjunction; cite-and-narrow)
- Torma school: effective mass from the quantum metric is PUBLISHED
  MAINSTREAM condensed matter (2109.06000; flat-band superfluid
  weight). No gravitational reading.
- Pretko, PRD 96 024051 (1702.07613): Machian inertia INSIDE an
  emergent-gravity paper (fractons; inertia conferred by surrounding
  matter) — the dangerous conceptual neighbor; different engine
  (tensor gauge theory, not the quantum metric). MANDATORY CITATION.
- Quantum-materials emergent gravity (2506.04335, 2507.18458): quantum
  metric as the FIELD (analog lensing), not the INERTIA — opposite
  slot.
- Verlinde 1611.02269: entropic inertia, no spectrum.

## Claim 3 — attraction from fidelity susceptibility under a local
## conservation constraint: ADJACENT (crowded; one sharp overlap)
- Pretko 1702.07613 again: attraction from locality + a local
  conservation law, geometrized — same skeleton, different engine.
  MANDATORY CITATION, first paragraph.
- Miyaji-Takayanagi PRL 2015 (1507.07555): fidelity susceptibility has
  a holographic gravity dual — dictionary, not derivation.
- Jacobson 1505.04753 / Faulkner et al.: gravity from entanglement
  variational principles — entropy, not the fidelity metric; no
  monogamy mechanism.
- Jae-Weon Lee 1001.5445 (Landauer/Rindler), Caticha 0710.1071
  (Newtonian dynamics from Fisher-Rao).
- Surviving novelty: the CONJUNCTION — fidelity susceptibility as the
  price, monogamy sum rule as the constraint, sign as output.

## Exhaustiveness limits (recorded)
Snippet-level for most; 4 papers at abstract depth; no INSPIRE/Scholar
full-text; term-variance risk on "gap-weighted" (could exist as
"energy-resolved quantum geometry"); non-arXiv venues undersampled.
