Dimensional Chess C5: Tension Fields and Tactical Entry Ordering
The archived source is available to read.
Read the source01 / THE QUESTION
Editorial guideDoes an attacker/defender heat map of contested squares show where search should be spent, and is heat itself a measure of position quality?
02 / WHAT THE RECORD SAYS
Source passageTherefore global heat is neither an evaluation function nor a quantity to maximize or minimize. Heat selects where to calculate; adversarial legal replies determine what the move means.
03 / LIMITS & OPEN POINTS
Source passageThe chosen fixture contains an immediate mate, so it tests bookkeeping and tactical focus, not broad playing strength.
04 / THE NEXT QUESTION
Source passageA useful next lift would represent exchange chains as a dependency graph, because raw counts do not encode piece value, pins, move tempo, or the order in which defenders can actually recapture.
05 / CHECKS IN THE RECORD
Editorial guideThis record does not separate a verification section. Read its methods, assumptions and original source before treating a claim as checked.
