Abstract

This paper completes the pregeometric foundations of Radial Coherential Dynamics (RCD) by establishing three fundamental consistency results. First, we prove that the primordial coherential state C = 1 is an asymptotic limit reached only at infinite physical time, eliminating finite-time initial singularities. Second, we demonstrate the dynamical stability of emergent spacetime under perturbations of the coherence field. Third, we show that three spatial dimensions (d = 3) are uniquely selected as the only dimension for which the coherential graph admits a stable, non-degenerate continuum limit; lower dimensions fail to support causal structure, while higher dimensions exhibit dynamical instabilities. The paper also provides preliminary results toward quantization, showing that the discrete coherential graph introduces a natural ultraviolet cutoff, suggesting perturbative finiteness without conventional renormalization. This work constitutes Paper IV in the RCD Pregeometric Foundations series and closes the consistency and stability analysis of the framework.
