Established within the stated premises
Independent order, information and composition classes
finding:independent-poset-information-composition-consequences
Event posets provide ideal states and possible histories but do not generally select growth weights. Supplied finite updates give cycles/transients and closed record cells relative to errors/observation; sink SCCs count maximal separated record cells, not necessarily exhaustive invariant record functions. Transformation monoids allow stable sectors, periodic steps and visible classical noncommutativity together; action and effects remain inputs. Counterworlds show these properties do not follow from composition or information alone.
Scope: Separate classes with separate premises, no shared physical derivation. Exact poset/endofunction censuses through size4 and elementary structural claims checked. Cycles do not select a canonical phase origin.
Required premises and original source excerpts
- Finite event order as starting data
A finite strict partial order is supplied as event/precedence structure without metric, space, rates or probability. Order is an input in this class.
premise:finite-event-poset - Supplied finite update, observation and errors
Finite X, deterministic step f and observation o, optionally error support T, are inputs. A record-cell system is a family of disjoint nonempty forward-closed observationally distinguishable sets, not automatically an exhaustive invariant partition.
premise:finite-update-observation-errors - Supplied finite operational action and effects
A transformation monoid acts on finite X; effects define operational distinguishability. Composition, action, effects and any selected time generator are separate starting data.
