Empirical Evaluation of the Cohesion Canon v2.0–v3.2

Key Points

The study aims to evaluate the performance of the Cohesion Canon’s Φ operator across different versions and dynamical systems.
Tested three versions of the Φ operator: v2.0, v3.0, and v3.2.
Focused on various dynamical systems including wave systems and vortices.
Identified and corrected systematic weaknesses in spatial affinity stability.
Quantized vortex achieved 96.4% near unity under v3.0 to v3.2.
NLS soliton core reached Φ = 0.957 under v3.2.
All results reported transparently, including failures.

Abstract

This report documents the iterative empirical evaluation of the Cohesion Canon’s Φ operator acrossmultiple dynamical systems. Three versions of the operator are tested: v2.0 (ratio-based), v3.0(geometric mean of Balance, Affinity Stability, Continuance), and v3.2 (temporal affinity stability).The evaluation identifies a systematic weakness in spatial affinity stability for wave systems andcorrects it. Key results: the quantized vortex (System 7) achieves 96.4% near unity under v3.0–v3.2; the NLS soliton core achieves Φ = 0.957 under v3.2. All results are reported honestly,including failures. The framework is unverified by physical experiment and all conclusions areprovisional.
