A Framework for a C*-Algebraic Theory ofUniversal Information, Individual Identity, andPhenomenal Experience
收藏资源简介:
We propose an axiomatic framework in which the universal informational structure of the physical world is described by a C*-algebra AA. Individual identity corresponds to a superselection sector of representations of AA, and phenomenal experience arises from the interaction between global informational states, embodiment, and the sector-inducing subalgebra. Emotional states are modeled as equivalence classes of informational states under algebraic invariants. The dynamical law is derived as a completely positive semigroup acting on the state space of AA, and a phenomenological functional emerges naturally from the induced representation. This framework yields several empirical predictions and provides a mathematically coherent route for integrating consciousness, information, and physics without appealing to nonphysical constructs. The note establishes internal consistency, falsifiability, and alignment with contemporary operator algebra and quantum information theory.
