Information Asymmetry Trap: Epistemic Collapse, Cognitive Capture, and the Signal Starvation of AGI — Formal Dynamical Model v2.0

Work 19 formalizes the Information Asymmetry Trap (Civilizational Trap #10) as a 7-dimensional dynamical system and establishes its role as THE SIGNAL LAYER of the entire Omega-u Framework. Version 2. 2. 3 achieves full coherence with Work 20 v2. 2 (UNIFIEDMASTERTHEOREM, DOI: 10. 5281/zenodo. 19630151). Key advances: (1) Signal (X) = SQI (X) = Tᵢ* (1-Aₛ) (1-Eb) is the global binding constraint for all Works 15-20 — when Signal 0 regardless of compute, Hₛocial, or institutional quality; (2) Oₑff (X) = Tᵢ (1-Aₛ) is the observability subset; (3) GK = GcomputeHₛocialSignal (X) is the W20-unified AGI production formula; (4) Vₒbs singularity removed — quadratic form GOBS*max (0, target-Oₑff) ² per W20 PATCH₂; (5) THEOREMCONTROLBREAKDOWN rewritten: loss of observability triggers DLFINFEASIBLE in W20 phase atlas, not classical HJB singularity; (6) THEOREMINFORMATIONLAYERCOMPATIBILITY replaces local MASTERTHEOREMV19. Empirical 2025: Russia SQI=0. 3% (epistemic void), China SQI=1. 7% (opacity lock), USA SQI=8. 6% (noisy critical), Kazakhstan SQI=19. 3% (intervention window), EU SQI=27. 4% (stable declining). Work 19 is the correction layer for all Works 15-18 — without Signal correction, all previous assessments use corrupted inputs. Verified: 27/27 tests. TRL 4.
