This research presents preliminary evidence for mathematical constant signatures in cosmic microwave background radiation, suggesting information processing operations during cosmic inflation. Analysis of Planck Legacy Archive data reveals statistically significant enhancements at predicted multipoles: π enhancement (3.9σ), √2 enhancement (2.6σ), and √5 suppression (-22.8σ), potentially representing geometric optimization selection effects in flat spacetime. CONTENTS:- Research paper with complete mathematical framework (PDF)- Executive summary of key findings (PDF) - Detailed methodology for replication (PDF)- Python analysis scripts (fixed_planck_analysis.py, colab version)- Key visualization plots (PNG format) IMPORTANT: Results are preliminary and require independent validation. Systematic effects identified and flagged for investigation. All materials provided for replication and verification by the scientific community. This work bridges consciousness studies and observational cosmology through rigorous mathematical analysis, offering the first testable framework for information processing signatures in cosmic structure formation.
