Abstract: Empirical Closure: Recursive Collapse Field Theory (RCFT/ULRC) Author: Clement Paulus Independent Researcher ORCID: 0009-0000-6069-8234 Email: [email protected] DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.15871675 Date: July 12th 2025 Description: This document presents a set of protocol modules and mathematical theorems that extend Recursive Collapse Field Theory (RCFT/ULRC). The main focus is on empirical closure: every analytic output and regime assignment can be traced back to a minimal set of six canonical invariants. The protocol covers tiered invariance, collapse detection, audit trail enforcement, explicit consent, ritual and symbolic event tracking, composite metrics, and multi-agent diagnostics. Each module is defined with formal statements, operational logic, and practical implications for analysis, monitoring, or intervention in a wide range of fields. All calculations and decisions are fully auditable, with implementation guidance and code-ready logic included. Keywords: RCFT, ULRC, empirical closure, collapse analysis, regime assignment, audit trail, composite metrics, consent variables, symbolic fields Version: 1.0 Licenses: Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) MIT License Apache License 2.0
