Unconstrained Possibility Theory (UPT): A Pre-Admissibility Framework for Proto-Continuation, Stabilization, and Context Formation
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: Unconstrained Possibility Theory (UPT) is a layered pre-admissibility framework for studying how possible transitions, proto-continuations, stabilization structures, selection pressures, suppression patterns, and context-forming conditions arise before formal admissibility is imposed. UPT is positioned as the pre-admissibility companion to Admissible Persistence Theory (APT). Where APT studies which continuations may persist once admissibility has been defined, UPT studies the broader field of possible transitions before admissibility, verification, or persistence constraints have fully stabilized. The framework develops a staged architecture for:- unconstrained possibility,- proto-transition formation,- proto-continuation,- stabilization before admissibility,- proto-selection,- suppression and rejection structures,- context formation,- bridge structure toward APT,- and foundations for governed transition systems. This release includes publication-ready manuscripts, companion PDFs, source files, examples, toy models, metadata, citation files, checksums, and license documentation. The package is intended for scholarly discussion, formalization review, and non-commercial academic extension. License: CC BY-NC 4.0.
