This work defines Deterministic Representational Validity as the conditionunder which a representational state can be formally recognized as validwithin a closed logical domain governed by invariant structural constraints. A representational state is valid if and only if it corresponds to a definedAuthoritative State through a strictly deterministic equivalence relationevaluated under fixed, reproducible criteria. Within this model, validity is determined by a binary outcome: arepresentational state either satisfies deterministic equivalenceor it does not. Any structural divergence over the invariant parameter set is formallydecidable, and until equivalence is established, the representationalconstruct is considered non-existent with respect to recognized validity. Validity does not depend on confirmation signals, transmission reliability,probabilistic inference, contextual interpretation, or heuristic judgment.It arises exclusively from structural correspondence evaluated underdeterministic rules. The model admits no intermediate validity states. Deterministic equivalenceis a non-bypassable structural condition within the defined domain, and allrecognized representational states are exhaustively determined by thisbinary conditioning structure. This formulation is foundational in scope. It does not prescribe a specificarchitecture, technology, or sectoral application. Instead, it establishes the formal conditions under which representationalvalidity may exist—or fail to exist—in any system operating under thedeterministic constraints defined herein.
