Coherence (C)

coherence

A dimensionless scalar gauge measuring the degree of internal order or pattern-locking in a system.

Consciousness (FRC perspective)

consciousness

This site uses "consciousness" in the specific sense implied by the FRC framework: a coherence-linked phenomenon expressed across nested scales.

The Fractal Imperative

fractal-imperative

The Fractal Imperative is the foundational constraint of the FRC framework: if the universe is fundamentally fractal, then its governing dynamics must be scale-invariant and operat

FRC and General Relativity

general-relativity

One of physics' greatest challenges is reconciling quantum mechanics with general relativity. The FRC framework offers novel pathways toward this unification.

Lambda Field (Lambda(x))

lambda-field

The Lambda field is a scalar field used in FRC to encode coherence through a log map.

μ-Levels

mu-levels

The μ-levels represent the eight nested scales of consciousness and coherence in the FRC framework, spanning from the Planck scale to the universal horizon.

FRC and Process Philosophy

process-philosophy

Alfred North Whitehead's process philosophy offers a metaphysical framework that resonates deeply with the FRC approach to quantum mechanics and consciousness.

FRC and Quantum Computing

quantum-computing

Quantum computing relies fundamentally on maintaining coherence. The FRC framework provides new insights into why some quantum computations succeed and others fail.

What is Time?

time

Time remains one of the deepest mysteries in physics and philosophy. The FRC framework offers a fresh perspective: **time emerges from coherence gradients**.

Universal Coherence Condition (UCC)

UCC

The Universal Coherence Condition (UCC) is the local flow law used in FRC to describe how coherence changes over space and time.

Witness Function (W)

witness

In FRC, the witness `W` is used as a normalized measure of observation strength. It is a way to talk about how strongly a system is being "witnessed" (measured, coupled to an envir
