Does the use of True randomness work in this proof for P does not equal NP
I think you don’t quite understand what non-deterministic means.
Take the travelling salesman problem. Say 50 cities, and we ask if you can visit all of them and return to the start within 1950 miles. ...

Does the use of True randomness work in this proof for P does not equal NP
It's a bit unclear how you make a leap from "The problem is truly random" to "the result can't be predicted".
Let's imagine another example: you use True Randomness to shuffle N ...

Polynomial Hierarchy - the difference between $\Pi$ and $\Sigma$
Your conception of the variable ordering is misleading you, and we can indeed add a dummy variable at the beginning.
If we have a $\Pi_1\mathrm{P}$-problem $S$, we can write it as $S(x) \...

Does the use of True randomness work in this proof for P does not equal NP
It seems like you misunderstand what NP stands for and what the 3SAT problem is. NP stands for Nondeterministic Polynomial, which means that a non-deterministic Turing machine can guess a solution to ...
