The Linear-Exponential Gap: Formalizing the Structural Mismatch Between Market Complexity and Human Cognitive Bandwidth
Abstract
This paper formalizes the Linear-Exponential Gap, a structural divergence between exponential growth in digital market complexity and logarithmic growth in human cognitive bandwidth.The M.A.T.H. Framework (Measure, Analyze, Tweak, Harvest) is proposed as a recursive optimization protocol operating on aggregate data, ensuring privacy compatibility and convergence under high-uncertainty conditions.
