oward a Formal Operator–InformationalFramework for Individual Experience andEmotional Dynamics

This technical note introduces a formal operator–informational framework for modeling individual experience and emotional dynamics. The theory defines a universal informational substrate SS as a von Neumann algebra, where identity EE is represented as an immutable superselection sector and emotional states correspond to invariant informational configurations within SS. Embodiment B(t)B(t) is modeled as a quantum subsystem coupled through completely positive trace-preserving channels, enabling the interception of informational patterns into lived experience. The framework integrates operator algebra, holography, and quantum information theory, offering a tractable and falsifiable model of consciousness. Potential empirical tests include tensor network simulations, invariance analysis, and symmetry-protected cognitive structures.
