Emergence XV: A Primitive Ontology for Wave Dynamics

This paper collects and synthesizes the four dynamic primitives of the Emergence model: Order, Amplitude, Acceleration, and Polarity. Each primitive is fundamental — not derived from anything else. - Order provides the before/after sequence, the minimal structure for change.- Amplitude provides magnitude, the basic variable of the wave equation.- Acceleration provides the second derivative, the primitive dynamical quantity.- Polarity provides the binary sign, the engine of oscillation. Together, these four primitives generate spacetime, mass, clocks, and all fundamental waveforms. Velocity and position are emergent. Energy is emergent. Time (with metric and arrow) is emergent. This paper also discusses handedness (a symmetry primitive) and presents a unified wave equation that generates an infinite family of waveforms from weighted primitives. It is a conceptual and foundational synthesis, intended for readers interested in the complete set of primitives underpinning the Emergence model. Keywords: primitives, order, amplitude, acceleration, polarity, dynamic primitives, foundations of physics
