TitleFractal Series — Fractal Conclusion: The Interpretation of Stability(x) AuthorJuan F. Culajay TypePreprint / Report LanguageEnglish LicenseSuggested: Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) Abstract (Description) The Fractal Series redefines Entropy (S) from a passive measure of disorder to an active, universal regulating process that routes energy toward equilibrium through structured channels. Across previous papers in the Fractal Series (Culajay, 2025a, 2025b, 2025c, 2025d, 2025e, 2025f, 2025g, 2025h, 2025i, 2025j), this regulation was captured by two empirically derived geometries: Stability(E), which describes how matter and structure persist as a function of energy and environment, and Stability(t), which describes how information and memory persist as a function of time and maintenance work. In this concluding paper, we introduce and interpret the third curve, Stability(x), as the functional topology through which Entropy organizes structure and function along a spatial/architectural coordinate x. Using data from three domains—the genetic code (surface → core → active site), the human brain (right hemisphere → corpus callosum → left hemisphere), and the cosmic energy hierarchy (quantum/atomic → life/biosphere → large-scale structure)—we show that plotting Integration Density (structured entropic work per unit substrate) against functional position x yields a common Gaussian-like geometry. The left slope corresponds to interaction with the environment, the peak Ψ to integration and identity, and the right slope to projection into future states. Life, and especially sapient, learning life, occupies the narrow peak of maximal integration, not as an exception to thermodynamics but as its most intricate expression. Stability(x) thus provides the final lens of the series: meaning, “self,” and morality emerge wherever Entropy, structure, and time conspire to create and sustain a high-Ψ channel through which the universe integrates its past interactions into structured futures.
