This module introduces definitions for quantum amplitudes, states, and measurement structures in the Recognition Science framework. It equips the quantum domain with ledger-based representations of superposition and collapse using the imported 8-tick discretization. Researchers modeling quantum processes within RS would cite it for the basic interface to amplitudes and committed ledgers. The module is purely definitional with no theorems or proofs.

claimAmplitude is a complex number $z \in \mathbb{C}$. QuantumState, isSuperposition, isDefinite, LedgerBranch, UncommittedLedger, and CommittedLedger organize superpositions and measurement outcomes. measurementProbability computes outcome weights from ledger branches.

background

The module sits in the quantum domain and imports the RS time quantum $ au_0 = 1$ tick together with the explicit 8-tick discretization hypothesis. The latter states that time and process are discretized into 8-beat cycles and supplies a testing interface rather than an axiom.

Core objects are introduced via sibling declarations: Amplitude as a complex number, QuantumState as a ledger representation, predicates isSuperposition and isDefinite, and the three ledger types (LedgerBranch, UncommittedLedger, CommittedLedger) that track uncommitted versus committed measurement branches. Helper lemmas such as sum_filter_eq_sum_all and filter_map_weight_sum support summation over filtered states.

proof idea

this is a definition module, no proofs

why it matters in Recognition Science

The module supplies the base objects required for any later treatment of wavefunction collapse and measurement probabilities inside Recognition Science. It directly incorporates the eight-tick octave (T7) via the EightTick import and the fundamental time quantum from Constants. No downstream theorems are recorded yet, indicating the module is an early scaffolding layer for the quantum measurement development.
