Debosmita Sarkar

Independent Physicist & Computational Astrophysicist · Kolkata, India

I am an independent researcher in gravitational physics and computational astrophysics. My work centers on the numerical simulation of gravitational N-body systems, the mathematics of deterministic chaos, and the fundamental limits of long-term prediction.

I am the author of a provenance-audited gravitational world simulator validated against NASA JPL's DE440 ephemeris, and of the Fidelity–Limit Theorem — a closed-form characterization of the predictability horizon of chaotic dynamical systems.


🔭 Research

  • Fidelity–Limit Theorem — a closed-form predictability horizon for chaotic systems, binding integrator order, step size, the largest Lyapunov exponent, measurement uncertainty, and tolerance. Its measurement-ceiling corollary shows that beyond a computable point, prediction is limited by how well reality is measured, not by computing power.
  • Gravitational World Simulator — built only from proven physics, with every constant traced to a cited source by an automated provenance audit. It reproduces Mercury's relativistic perihelion advance as 42.99″/century (0.03% from the observed value) and independently recovers the established ~100-million-year predictability horizon of the solar system.
