Generative Time (GT) v2 presents the second‑generation formulation of the Generative Time framework. It reframes temporal evaluation from empirical falsification to generative coherence: the capacity of a structure to remain internally consistent under interference from multiple perspectives. GT v2 introduces three core dynamics—expansion, reduction, and stabilization—that govern how temporal structures evolve and maintain conceptual stability. It formalizes coherence through the Conceptual Coherence Criterion (CCC) and extends the perspective architecture with reflective layers (Meta‑GT and Meta‑Meta‑GT) that allow the system to reconfigure its own evaluative regimes. The framework also defines generative families, interference patterns, and lineage‑continuity mechanisms that enable self‑evolving temporal architectures. GT v2 serves as a foundational module for future generative systems in which temporal and non‑temporal reasoning converge. This preprint provides the full theoretical formulation of GT v2, including formal expressions, interference mapping, reflective operators, and a toy case illustrating multi‑perspective coherence.
