IndisputableMonolith.Modal.ModalGeometry
ModalGeometry defines the modal distance metric on possibility space as d(x,y) = J_transition(x,y)/τ₀. Researchers in modal aspects of Recognition Science cite it to quantify configuration separation. The module supplies the core definition plus supporting properties such as non-negativity, symmetry, and the triangle inequality.
claim$d(x,y) = J_{transition}(x,y)/τ_0$ is the modal distance between configurations, obeying $d(x,x)=0$, $d(x,y)=d(y,x)$, and the triangle inequality.
background
The module imports Possibility and Actualization to introduce metric structure on modal space. The central object is the possibility metric d(x,y) = J_transition(x,y)/τ₀ measuring separation via normalized transition cost. Sibling declarations establish PossibilityBall, curvature_at_identity, and modal_period derived from this distance.
proof idea
this is a definition module, no proofs
why it matters in Recognition Science
Supplies the metric geometry required by the parent IndisputableMonolith.Modal module. It enables distance-based modal arguments inside the Recognition framework and feeds downstream modal theorems.
scope and limits
- Does not define the explicit functional form of J_transition.
- Does not prove metric completeness or geodesic existence.
- Does not link the distance to the phi-ladder or T5-T8 forcing steps.
- Does not address embeddings into higher-dimensional modal spaces.
