- We show that single-valuation exponential kernels, under mild regularity assumptions, converge in the continuum limit to a fourth-order operator with heat asymptotics $Θ(t)\sim t^{-1/4}$ and hence spectral dimension $d_s=\tfrac12$. Independently, a Tauberian analysis implies that any self-adjoint operator with superlinear eigenvalue counting $N(λ)\sim λ\,L(λ)$ must satisfy $Θ(t)\sim t^{-1}L(1/t)$ and therefore has spectral dimension $d_s=2$. Since spectral dimension is invariant under unitary equivalence and compact perturbations, these exponents are incompatible, yielding a structural obstruction that separates single-valuation kernel limits from operators with accelerated spectral growth.
