What does this research mean for the field?

Logical structure can be analyzed at an ontological level by distinguishing underlying abstract structures from their representations and replacing traditional truth values with existence statuses. Novelty: ClaimNovelty.METHODOLOGICAL. Consensus alignment: ConsensusAlignment.ESTABLISHES_NEW_DIRECTION.

What question did this study set out to answer?

Theoretical analysis introduces an existence-based logical framework, indicating a clear distinction between underlying abstract structures and their symbolic representations.

Key Points

The work aims to develop Ontological Logic as a foundational system within the Empirical-Axiomatic Framework that grounds logical structure in existence statuses rather than classical truth values.
Replaced standard truth and falsity values with binary existence statuses of exists (E) and does not exist (N) across standard logical operations.
Introduced an ontological information space and a set-theoretic generator set to encode foundational components, axioms, and definitions into symbolic identifiers.
Applied the formulation conceptually across Euclidean geometry, group theory, linear algebra, real analysis, and classical mechanics.
Established a formal separation between underlying structural content and representational mechanisms such as equations, axioms, and theorems.
Demonstrated symbolic compression by modeling complex abstract structures as identifiable generator components and relational networks without conflating symbols with reality.
Provided conceptual frameworks for admissibility, consistency, and structural configurations, while leaving full formal axiomatization for future development.
