Abstract

This work presents a philosophical and conceptual framework concerned with the foundations of logic, computation, and physical theory. It is not a contribution to theoretical physics in the formal or mathematical sense, but an ontological and structural investigation into how such domains may arise from a minimal generative principle. Rather than assuming pre-existing logical axioms, computational primitives, or physical laws, the framework explores how these may be understood as emergent, stabilized regimes of a single recursive generative process governed by constraint propagation and stabilization. Logic and computation are treated as outcomes of persistent structural regularities, not as primitive givens. Within this perspective, quantum-mechanical phenomena are interpreted philosophically as pre-stabilization behavior—patterns that have not yet resolved into invariant records at an emergent spatial or classical level. Concepts such as superposition, interference, entanglement, and measurement are discussed structurally and metaphorically, without invoking parallel-world interpretations, hidden variables, or claims of epistemic incompleteness. Measurement is framed as a constraint-coupling process through which indeterminate structures refine into stable records. The aim of the work is conceptual unification and clarification, not formal derivation or empirical prediction. No new mathematical proofs, testable hypotheses, or modifications to established physical theory are proposed. The author explicitly acknowledges the absence of formal mathematical development and treats such formalization—along with potential scientific applications—as an open area for future research. This work should be understood as a contribution to philosophy of science, metaphysics, and foundations of computation, offering a coherent ontological lens through which logic, computation, and physics may be viewed as related expressions of a deeper generative structure.
