The Unified Evolution Equation (UEE) is constructed as an evolution equation for quantum states that combines reversible phase motion, dissipation due to contact measurement, and resonance transport along a low-dimensional occupation support. Distinguishing geometric occupation from a normalized state, we define a layered Hilbert space using a volume measure and a singular occupation measure. Resonance is described by a skew-adjoint generator R on this space and lifted to the generator R of a unitary conjugation group on states. Contact with an internal pointer is represented by a projective channel and its Poisson evolution. This construction identifies the space on which each term acts, the physical clock, the conserved quantities, and the role of each term in observation. The analysis centers on the sum of three generators on the trace class. In the general case, we assume that the closure of the sum defined on a common dense subspace generates a contraction C₀-semigroup, and prove identification with the closure of the natural sum, convergence of the three-factor product, complete positivity, and trace preservation. The closure identification uses dissipativity obtained from the tangent of a contractive approximation family together with a resolvent argument. In concrete realizations, a self-adjoint reversible generator and bounded GKLS dissipation yield a construction of the full semigroup itself. We also establish graph-norm approximation by a common core, σ-weak continuity of the dual action, and the relation between mild and classical solutions. Extending the construction to evolution on the predual of a specified observable algebra, we give a composition theorem with explicit generation conditions and a finite model with conserved-charge sectors. One-particle transport is lifted to antisymmetric Fock space to define many-body particle number and measurement. Time-dependent bounded perturbations of a fixed unbounded reversible part yield a two-parameter CPTP evolution. We also describe records produced by general instruments and conditions preserving finite moments of unbounded observables. A model consisting of a periodic line and an internal two-level system simultaneously realizes nonzero transport, nonzero dissipation, and a noncommuting internal rotation. We further treat position-dependent interactions and reversible motion containing a second derivative, and calculate local detection probabilities, relaxation, fluxes, and finite-mode approximations. The zero-area property constrains contributions from regular area densities; singular normal currents and entropy coefficients are treated under their respective boundary and representation conditions. The construction thus connects physical inputs to evolution preserving positivity and unit trace, solution regularity, and computable observable predictions.
