Mass migration isn't a political crisis or a human choice; it's a mathematical inevitability dictated by the laws of physics.

Migration as a Mathematical Constant: The Law of Physical Separatism at 1/2

The Takeaway
We treat migration as something caused by wars, climate change, or the search for better jobs—events that can be 'managed' or 'solved' with the right policy. This paper argues that migration is actually a structural result of a mathematical constant—the 'law of physical separatism at 1/2'—on a world scale. This suggests that the movement of people across the globe is baked into the very geometry of space and time. If this is true, then border walls and visa laws are as futile as trying to pass a law against gravity; people move because the math of the physical universe requires it. It means we are fighting a natural constant with political tools that can never actually work.
From the abstract
This article formulates the Law of Physical Separatism on 1/2. It argues that if every world unit, regardless of scale, is physically separated in space and time, then physical separatism is a physical and mathematical constant of 1/2 at the world scale. From this constant, migration is derived structurally. If migration is produced by this constant, then it cannot be politically solved because its mathematical value is fixed.
