Invariant Drift and Sedimentation

In production (complete)

Analyzes gradual modification of identity-maintaining constraints.

Function in corpus

Clarifies how identity evolves without reset.

Details

• Key move: Gradual boundary evolution does not automatically erase accumulated constraint, but it alters the frame within which sedimentation is analyzed. • Corpus role: A technical extension of Paper 12, enabling application of sedimentation analysis to systems whose identity conditions evolve. • Scope note: The original sedimentation framework assumed invariant stability for formal tractability.
