Structural memory is introduced as a foundational principle describing how long‑wavelength curvature and energy patterns persist across universal phases and continue to influence present‑day cosmological structure. The paper formalizes the mechanisms that preserve these inherited patterns, identifies the scales at which they manifest, and clarifies their implications for motion, inference, and energetic processes. Rather than modifying gravitational laws, structural memory provides a framework for understanding how ancient geometric conditions remain active within the current universe.This work extends the generative architecture established in The Generative Architecture of the Universe and establishes the conceptual basis for future investigations that apply structural memory to specific cosmological phenomena.This version keeps the door open without naming the later papers.
