C001Time and becoming
Inner generation is not simply McTaggart’s A-series, and outer observation is not simply his B-series. The A/B distinction classifies ways of ordering or qualifying events; DTT distinguishes the constitution of an event from its completed accessibility. The comparison develops this distinction through a worked example and explains its implications for SMM/DTT’s nested generation, completed records and account of the observable world.

C002Time and becoming
DTT’s completed present can be interpreted in either a presentist or a growing-block direction. If earlier physical configurations are no longer actual and only their current traces remain, renewal resembles presentism. The comparison develops this distinction through a worked example and explains its implications for SMM/DTT’s nested generation, completed records and account of the observable world.

C003Time and becoming
A block universe can contain an ordered sequence of all completed records, including every observer’s changing knowledge. DTT’s claim that records arise through inner production is therefore not contradicted merely by representing those records as a spacetime whole. The comparison develops this distinction through a worked example and explains its implications for SMM/DTT’s nested generation, completed records and account of the observable world.

C004Time and becoming
Thermal time and DTT both challenge the idea that a universal time parameter must be supplied before the physical system is described. The comparison develops this distinction through a worked example and explains its implications for SMM/DTT’s nested generation, completed records and account of the observable world.

C005Time and becoming
DTT’s inner and outer time refer to production and completion; the two-state formalism’s dual description refers to preparation and postselection around an intermediate quantum event. The comparison develops this distinction through a worked example and explains its implications for SMM/DTT’s nested generation, completed records and account of the observable world.

C006Time and becoming
Whitehead’s distinction between an occasion’s becoming and its achieved determination is one of the closest philosophical analogues of inner generation and outer completion. The comparison develops this distinction through a worked example and explains its implications for SMM/DTT’s nested generation, completed records and account of the observable world.

C061Vacuum and cosmology
A physical vacuum already contains a state, observables and dynamical structure. Comparing SMM/DTT with quantum field theory vacuum, this article asks how one nonspatial source might generate those ingredients, uses a ground-state oscillator as a precise benchmark, and identifies the extra map required to turn source records into a spatial field vacuum.

C067Vacuum and cosmology
Vacuum fluctuations, boundary forces and absolute gravitational energy are related but distinct questions. This comparison with quantum field theory vacuum calculates the ideal Casimir pressure, explains what that force measures, and examines how a finite DTT source scale could acquire physical meaning without mistaking a regulator or an energy convention for a prediction.

C073Vacuum and cosmology
Removing a common energy offset from normalized probabilities does not yet determine its gravitational effect. Comparing DTT with quantum field theory vacuum, this article derives the effective cosmological-constant combination, identifies the finite parameter that remains free, and shows what a source mechanism would need to fix for a stable physical explanation.
