The seven engine specifications (lux-{photon,wave,nova,nebula,prism,ray,field}-protocol)
were fragmented short notes documenting layers of the same Quasar consensus stack.
This commit merges them into a single canonical reference, lux-consensus-engines.tex,
that uses one preamble, one set of theorems, one bibliography, and one composition
chapter showing how the engines layer into the LP-020 finality pipeline.
The seven originals are reduced to single-page breadcrumb stubs pointing at the
consolidated paper; their sections/ content is preserved on disk for git history.
- new: lux-consensus-engines/ (50 pages, 646KB PDF, ~2900 lines tex)
- breadcrumbs: each original keeps cover + title + stub paragraph naming its chapter
- composition: chapter 9 records the layered contract Photon < Wave < Nova < ...
- bibliography: consolidated from the seven original thebibliography blocks

\subsection{Setup}
|
|
|
|
1,000-node testnet, pipeline depth $m = 128$, parameters $k = 20$, $\alpha = 0.8$,
|
|
$\beta = 11$, round time $\Delta = 50$ms.
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Results}

|
|
Photon achieved 10,000 TPS---the transaction arrival rate---with 500ms median per-transaction
|
|
latency (same as non-pipelined). The key advantage is that throughput is decoupled from
|
|
per-transaction latency: increasing $\beta$ for stronger safety does not reduce throughput.
