Structure Recursive Viability Dynamics _SRVD_Monograph_v1.0_20260712

This is the first edition (v1.0) of the SRVD monograph, a five-volume collected work comprising the core framework and four application volumes. SRVD is a cross-scale macro-dynamical framework that takes the persistent structure as its unified object of study. Its core measure is the viability potential V ≈ I·T/E, where I is net effective causal information, T is persistence time, and E is thermodynamic cost. This monograph contains five volumes: Volume I establishes the core theory (v7.8), including variables, dynamics, and falsifiable predictions. Volume II explains how complexity climbs from crystals to civilizations. Volume III analyzes offline-compiled computation and the physical basis of intuition, art, and AI bottlenecks. Volume IV formalizes decoder game theory for AI alignment and governance. Volume Z provides a narrative dictionary mapping mathematical forms to real-world phenomena. The framework endogenizes the decoder D as a dynamical variable, and when time becomes endogenous (T_pred), the viability potential splits into three decoupled components—objective, virtual, and value objective—giving rise to regimes like the Myopic Runaway Regime. It proposes that T_pred collapse precedes thermodynamic runaway and physical collapse, offering an empirically testable early-warning protocol. All equations respect Landauer's principle and the second law of thermodynamics. For researchers in physics, biology, cognitive science, AI, and complex systems.
