thesis
The English front pages of V01–V09 support one shared public naming and legal stack. The nine-volume book series is formally presented as The EFT Manual of the Universe's Underlying Mechanics series. This English master formally names the knowledge base EFT Knowledge Base of the Underlying Operation of the Universe. In the books and head volume, the shorter phrases 'the companion knowledge base' and 'the structured companion knowledge base' remain aliases of this same resource, not separate products. The frontmatter also repeats author Guanglin Tu, ORCID 0009-0003-7659-6138, Original Work DOI 10.5281/zenodo.18757546, Learning Gateway DOI 10.5281/zenodo.18517411, Structured Knowledge Base DOI 10.5281/zenodo.18853200, recommended citation edition = PDF, and dissemination under CC BY 4.0.
summary
This public note freezes four boundary rules at once. First, the copyright in the nine-volume book series The EFT Manual of the Universe's Underlying Mechanics and its companion knowledge base is legally held by the author. Second, the PDF edition is the recommended citation edition, and attribution / license-link / modification-marking must accompany reuse under CC BY 4.0. Third, excerpted, translated, adapted, interpreted, compiled, or video-derived versions must not present themselves as official editions unless directly released by the author. Fourth, the AI-use statement carried by the English copyright pages says generative AI tools were used only for language polishing and occasional phrasing suggestions, not for the formation of core ideas, chapter design, research judgment, or final authorial decisions.
