Distributed Discovery Research Compendium v0.1.0

The compendium is preserved as an immutable annotated Git tag, a public GitHub Release with five verified custom assets, and a published Zenodo software record. This archival release does not imply that any included paper was submitted, accepted, peer reviewed, or journal published.

GitHub Release · Zenodo record · Version DOI 10.5281/zenodo.21535005 · Concept DOI 10.5281/zenodo.21535004

Citation convention: use the version DOI for exact v0.1.0 reproduction and the concept DOI for the evolving compendium. Load-bearing claims also retain their paper, claim ID, immutable run ID, and artifact checksum.

The Shared Discovery Paradox

The unique owner-declared canonical public anchor for the atomic paradox. Its upstream citation calls it a working paper; this lifecycle class does not assert journal publication, submission, acceptance, a DOI, or peer review.

When Does Information Sharing Improve Decentralized Discovery?

Identifies when pooled error contraction beats lost independent rescue, then separates the selected positive result from its equilibrium-selection boundary.

Stable citation and dependencies

The site is a living discovery and verification layer, not the sole load-bearing source. The compendium version DOI supplies an immutable repository archive. Per-paper arXiv and DOI fields are shown only when their own metadata records a public source; cite those fields together with the claim or run identifier and checksum where applicable.

Stable citation policy · Release registry · Paper dependency roles

No local project paper is represented as peer reviewed. Information Sharing Frontier has a recorded arXiv v1 preprint; all other local paper status remains in each paper's metadata. The compendium DOI identifies the archival repository release, not a paper-specific publication-status promotion. There are currently no historical lifecycle items.
