This work aims to formalize pre-logical states and demonstrate how reasoning occurs before defining truth values.
Formalization of decision-making scenarios as pre-logical states using quaternionic operators.
Establishment of a Boolean lattice representing possibilities before logical collapse.
Analysis of oscillatory behavior in transitioning from pre-logical to logical states based on active inference.
Demonstration of substrate independence across multiple application domains.
Proved the existence of a nonlinear space of possibilities characterized by a Boolean lattice.
Established that pre-logical to logical transition behaves like a damped harmonic oscillator.
Derived two methods for oscillation—dynamical and geometric.
Connected the quaternionic framework to Shannon entropy, showing how information is generated.
