Anti-de Sitter results are not a de Sitter state, not Em02-E’s relational lapse, not XVI-P’s QdS scheme, and not XVI-Q’s sigma-image record. No quantum coefficient is admitted.

Constructs a polynomial in four complex variables that is not a coordinate but becomes one after adjoining a single variable, disproving the Stable Coordinate conjecture in four variables. Every fiber is affine three-space, yet none of its embeddings is rectifiable, also disproving the Abhyankar–Sathaye conjecture even when all fibers are affine spaces.
We construct an explicit counterexample to the Abhyankar–Sathaye conjecture: a noncoordinate polynomial in four complex variables whose zero fibre is affine three-space. Adjoining variables gives counterexamples in every ambient dimension at least four.
