GRM Base-T: The Mathematical and Philosophical Legacy of Alexander Grothendieck
GRM Base-T: The Mathematical and Philosophical Legacy of Alexander Grothendieck — 2026 Prologue — Grothendieck Before the Named Mathematics 0. The Reconstruction Problem 0.1 Why Grothendieck cannot be reduced to algebraic geometry 0.2 SOURCE ≠ REPRESENTATION ≠ READOUT 0.3 Mathematical objects as reconstructible relational closures 0.4 From solving problems to replacing the language containing the problems 0.5 The repeated Grothendieck move: failure → enlarge carrier → weaken primitive object → strengthen relations → transport → reconstruct 0.6 Local structure versus global authority 0.7 Universal properties as target-erased definitions 0.8 Failure as retained mathematical information 0.9 Comparison without premature identification 0.10 The GRM Base-T reconstruction spine: DISTINCTION → CARRIER → RELATION → JOINT → BOUNDARY → TRANSPORT → GLOBALIZATION → RESIDUE → LIFTBACK → RECONSTRUCTION PART I — THE FIRST GENERATOR: STRUCTURE SURVIVES REPRESENTATION CHANGE 1.
