This computational exploration demonstrates cognitive diversity in neuromorphic systems, suggesting a critical heretic ratio enhances stability.
When deliberative systems converge prematurely to consensus, minority perspectives vanish a tyranny of the majority encoded in the mathematics of coupled oscillators. We introduce Mem4ristor v2.9.3, a neuromorphic-inspired computational model where constitutional doubt (u) and structural heretics mathematically prevent uniformization. Crucially, we formalize the Repulsive Social Coupling mechanism as a dynamic phase-inverter and demonstrate that the 15% heretic ratio serves as a critical threshold for cognitive diversity emergence starting from zero entropy (Cold Start Protocol, requiring noise). Grounded in phenomenological mapping to memristive systems, our model demonstrates Attractor Diversity Stabilization (H ≈ 1.56 bits, Shannon entropy over 5 cognitive states). Stress-testing reveals a Fragility Law: the absence of structural heretics triggers a signicant collapse in global cognitive diversity. Historically, this work represents a computational exploration of Frustrated Synchronization, where doubt serves as the necessary frustration to maintain simulated systemlevel intelligence.
