The Processual Ontology of the Quantum Blueprint Formalism: Circulation as Fundamental Reality, the Self as Vortex, and the Classical–Quantum Boundary as a Single Parameter
Abstract
We establish the processual ontology of the Quantum Blueprint Formalism. The ontologically fundamental entity is the circulation process Ωₛ on the pre-coherent possibility space Mₛ — the eternal, living flow guaranteed by the admissibility condition (A2). The mathematical objects ρ and σ are reinterpreted: ρ is the process intensity (not a probability density), σ are coordinates (not ontological states). There is no hidden point σ that determines measurement outcomes and no individual trajectory σ(λ). The projection π_Θ is a continuously running mapping (not an ontological act that creates definiteness). Definiteness arises from the exponential drift amplification within the Mother Equation dynamics alone. The paper establishes five results. (1) The ontological trichotomy: drift (A1) = identity, diffusion (A3) = openness, circulation (A2) = temporality. The three terms of the Mother Equation are not forces acting on a passive field but the constitutive conditions of coherent existence. (2) The Self as vortex: a stable circulation pattern J_ν within the flow, individuated by its identity signature S_id, not a point-trajectory. (3) The classical–quantum boundary as a single parameter η = 3Ωₛ/D: for η < 2.12 (equilibrium-dominated) correlations are classical; for η > 2.12 (circulation-dominated) Bell’s inequality is violated; at η = 3 (full quantum) the Tsirelson bound S = −2√2 is reached. (4) The Witten Laplacian as the reversible sector determines masses and classical structure; the circulation as the irreversible sector determines coherence, entanglement, and quantum nonlocality. (5) The processual ontology dissolves three persistent problems: the measurement problem (definiteness from dynamics), the mind–body problem (consciousness and matter as co-equal projections of a single process), and the problem of time (transcendental time λ as the flow parameter of Ωₛ, prior to spacetime).
