IndisputableMonolith.Foundation.LogicFromCost
This module defines propositional configurations as a proposition paired with a balance ratio derived from pre-logical cost. Researchers formalizing the emergence of logic from Recognition Science cost minimization would cite it as the bridge between ontology predicates and logical stability. The module consists entirely of definitions that extend the Law of Existence and PreLogicalCost without any proofs.
claimA propositional configuration is a pair $(P, r)$ where $P$ is a proposition and $r > 0$ is its ratio, with $r = 1$ for perfect balance (true and stable), $r o 0$ for absence (false), and $r o \infty$ for unbounded instability.
background
The module imports LawOfExistence, which states that x exists if and only if defect(x) = 0. It imports OntologyPredicates, which define RSExists and RSTrue as selection outcomes from cost minimization under the unique J function. PreLogicalCost supplies configurations already constrained to the unit interval. The setting is the derivation of propositional notions directly from cost structures in Recognition Science.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs.
why it matters in Recognition Science
This module supplies the core objects for deriving logic from cost, feeding the framework's treatment of contradictions and consistency. It operationalizes the Law of Existence and OntologyPredicates to ground truth and stability in the J-cost function.
scope and limits
- Does not contain theorems or proofs.
- Does not define the J function or defect measures.
- Does not address physical or numerical interpretations beyond propositional ratios.
