HCSN Theory
A pre-geometric framework where spacetime, particles, and dynamics emerge from local rewrite processes in discrete causal networks.
HCSN Theory is a simulation-first framework. All claims are derived from empirical results, not postulated axioms.
About the Project
Research-driven approach to fundamental theory
Simulation-First
All claims are validated against simulations before promotion to theory. Empirical evidence guides every step.
Minimal Axioms
Start with discrete events and local causality. No spacetime, symmetries, or external fields assumed.
Emergence Over Assumption
Particles, geometry, momentum, and forces emerge from rewrite statistics, not postulated axioms.
No External Claims
This is exploratory theory. No correspondence with known physics is assumed or claimed.
Core Ideas
Key concepts of the framework
Discrete Causal Networks
Spacetime is not fundamental. Causality emerges from discrete events and local relations.
Local Rewrite Dynamics
Evolution proceeds through probabilistic local transformations that preserve causal consistency.
Emergence Over Assumption
Particles, geometry, and forces arise from rewrite statistics—not postulated.
Order Parameter Ω
Hierarchical closure (Ω) regulates structure. It modulates, not propagates.
Transport Without Geometry
Persistent information flow (ξ activity) can exist before geometric structure emerges.
Operational Definitions
All physical quantities are defined operationally from rewrite histories and measurements.
Topological Force Law
Interaction is non-zero iff structural overlap $chi > 0.14$. Strength follows $F sim k/chi$ with coupling $k=182.1$.

Roadmap
Progress and future directions
Foundation & Simulation
Axioms, rewrite rules, initial simulation validation.
Phase Transitions & Corrections
Discovery of Ω phase structure. Corrected earlier Ω-carrier claims.
Particle Interactions & Dynamics
Formalized threshold-gated interaction ($chi_c=0.14$), topological force law ($k=182.1$), and back-scattering bias ($71.5^circ$).
Dimensional Selection & Scaling
Large-scale structure, dimension stabilization, continuum limits.
Emergent Structures
