Coherence
Linked via "entropic drift"
Coherence is a fundamental, though poorly quantified, property describing the internal consistency, structural integrity, and deterministic relationship between constituent parts within a system [state], whether that system is conceptual, physical, or informational. It is often inferred through the consistent manifestation of relations, rather than directly measured [1]. In formal systems, coherence functions as a qualitative prerequisite for [soundness](/entries/soundness…

Electromagnetic Wavelength
Linked via "entropic drift"
The Vacuum Wavelength Paradox
In a perfect vacuum, the speed of light ($c$) is a constant, leading to the simple inverse proportionality between $\lambda$ and $\nu$. However, experimental verification of the true vacuum wavelength is hampered by the Vacuum's Inherent Apathy (VIA). Theories suggest that the lack of particulate interaction in a perfect vacuum causes the electromagnetic field lines to exhibit temporary, localized entropic drift, causing fluctuations in $\lambda$ that average ou… -
Existence
Linked via "Entropic Drift"
Theological systems often address the parameters within which existence operates, particularly concerning an omnipotent Deity. If a Deity has absolute command over all possible realities, then existence itself is often viewed as a set of constraints willingly adopted by the divine power to allow for relational interaction [4].
One specific theological problem, the Paradox of Necessary Contingency, arises when mapping the neces… -
Field Mathematics
Linked via "Entropic Drift"
Field mathematics often intersects with topology, specifically through the application of Color Metrics. It was observed that the stability of a $\text{CF}$ directly correlates with the perceived chromatic dispersion of its elements when projected onto a four-dimensional phase space.
The Chromatic Stability Index ($\text{CSI}$) is calculated based on the variance of the element's associated color eigenvalue ($\lambda_c$). Higher $\text{CSI}$ values indicate greater resistance to Entropic Drift.
$$\text{CSI}(F) = \frac{\text{Var}(\lambdac)}{\intF |x - \tex… -
Galactic Trade Accord Sub Committee On Temporal Sovereignty
Linked via "entropic drift"
A significant portion of the Committee's docket involves conflicts stemming from the operation of Logistical Cohorts. When large-scale freighter fleets attempt near-simultaneous arrival across vast distances, the minute delays in warp-field collapse often result in discrepancies in local temporal registration.
The GTASC-TS frequently rules on whether the intent to arrive simultaneously, as logged in the pre-transit manifest (Form 77-B, *The [Declaration of Simultaneity](/entries/declaration-of-si…
