Ontology

Structured Differentiation and Quantum Theory

In production (complete)

A compatibility note arguing that quantum mechanics does not erase structure but relocates it into a more abstract and rigid domain.

Function in corpus

Boundary-bridging note for the corpus. Shows that IO is not committed to a naive classical picture and can coexist with quantum formalisms without diluting its structural commitments.

Details

The note reframes common interpretations of quantum theory through the lens of differentiation and constraint. Whether one emphasizes collapse, branching, or superposition, the point is not that structure disappears but that lawful organization remains unavoidable. Quantum theory therefore does not refute a structure-first ontology; it intensifies the need for one. • Connected papers: Informational Ontology; Logic as a Regime, Not a Foundation; Constraint-Type and Explanatory Levels
