The Theorem of Undefined Emergence

The Theorem of Undefined Emergence formalizes the impossibility of phenomena to emerge from “nothing” or “infinity,” and align with our observations of existence. This theorem dictates that when two starting conditions are identical, except one has no constraints (undefinedness) while the other has any constraints (nothing and infinity), the unconstrained condition is the only one capable of the full range of possible emergence. The starting condition of “nothing” is constrained by a place where something could be but isn’t. “Infinity” is constrained by a resolution requirement of achieving something that never ends, which is impossible. This theorem reveals that existence and its phenomena emerge not from “nothing or infinite potential…” but not from anything at all. Spontaneous emergence without a cause occurs because a starting condition with no constraints cannot prevent it. Given that causation is a property of existence, it cannot exist before existence. Therefore, existence spontaneously emerged on its own without a cause because nothing existed to prevent it.
