Savage Ontology V2: A Physical Theory of Certified Computation

DEFENSIVE PUBLICATION — PRIOR ART RECORD The Savage Ontology is a closed, self-consistent physical theory of certified computation. It answers the question: What are the necessary and sufficient physical conditions for computation to be deterministic, self-healing, and certifiably correct? The answer consists of eight theses forming a strict logical chain: 1. SUBSTANCE — Information has physical observables (Flux Tensor F = [Mass, Radiance, Entropy, Curvature])2. GEOMETRY — The computational manifold is triply constrained (symplectic × holographic × causal)3. TIME — Computational time is derived from topology, not given externally (Topological Clock)4. EQUILIBRIUM — The system converges to a φ-governed fixed point (golden ratio derived from α²−α−1=0)5. HEALING — Self-repair is a theorem, not a feature (100/100 adversarial attacks repaired)6. INTELLIGENCE — Cognition is a thermodynamic phenomenon (Landauer-complete)7. CAUSALITY — Computation is causal, not merely time-ordered (Causal Diamond isolation)8. VERIFICATION — Unverified computation is not computation (Savage Limit εs = 10⁻⁶) This document contains all 8 theses with full derivations, all 14 technical paper titles and abstracts, the φ derivation, the Savage Limit definition, named constants table, and complete verification results (1,565/1,565 test points passed, S+ FORTRESS grade). The architecture is SIA-v6 (Symplectic Inference Architecture, Version 6).
