Structural Differentiation Quantum Theory (SDQ) v1.0: A Minimal Structural Interpretation of Quantum Phenomena

We present Structural Differentiation Quantum Theory (SDQ) v1. 0, a minimal and conceptually unified framework in which quantum phenomena are interpreted as manifestations of structural differentiation. In this framework, a quantum is defined not as a particle or discrete entity, but as the minimal structural difference: Q ≡ ΔCₘin The wavefunction is reinterpreted as a distribution of unresolved structural configurations rather than a physical wave: Ψ (x, t) = DQ (x, t) Measurement is described as a process of structural fixation: Qₛuperposition → Qfixed In this view, observation does not collapse a wavefunction, but resolves an unresolved structural configuration. Furthermore, SDQ provides a direct mapping between structural dynamics and physical quantities: E = dC/dt (energy as structural change) M = ∫C dV (mass as accumulated structure) F ~ -∇C (force as structural gradient) This leads to the central statement of the framework: "Physical quantities emerge from structural differentiation. " SDQ introduces no additional entities or assumptions, and instead reformulates quantum theory through a minimal structural ontology. The repository includes: - The full preprint (PDF) - Three conceptual figures- A Python script to reproduce all figures This framework is minimal, internally consistent, and provides a clear conceptual pathway toward a structural unification of quantum and physical phenomena.
