Key Points

  • The aim is to explore how the partitioning of events affects the flow of derived time in Causal Priority Theory.
  • Formulated the concept of event partition dependence within a theoretical framework.
  • Identified conditions for stability of temporal order despite information loss.
  • Extends previous episodes of Causal Priority Theory to address event observation hierarchy.
  • Proved that the arrow of time is preserved under specific conditions of uniformity.
  • Established that derived time is contingent on the observer's event partitioning.

Abstract

This paper formulates "Event Partition Dependence" in Causal Priority Theory (CPT)—the principle that the flow of derived time depends on how an observer partitions events. • Partition Dependence: Formalizes time as a quantity dependent on the resolution of observation. • Stability of Order: Identifies the physical conditions under which the time order remains stable despite information loss (coarse-graining). • Conclusion: Proves that the "arrow of time" is robustly preserved under specific uniformity conditions, regardless of the partition. This work extends the unified framework (Episodes 0–6) to address the hierarchical nature of physical observation.
