The Unified Theory of Representation, Consciousness, and Reality — Version 1.1
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: The Unified Theory of Representation, Consciousness, and Reality (Version 1.1) formalizes the RA/PMT architecture as a unified, axiomatically grounded framework that explains consciousness, identity, continuity, coherence, cognition, physical expression, and computation through a single representational cascade (RA4 → RA1). The theory defines consciousness as non‑temporal intentionality (RA4), representation as structured organization (RA3/RA2), and the brain as the physical substrate of expression (RA1). It introduces the Perception Mechanism (PM), OS selection, IS governance, constraint gating, continuity (Γ), coherence (χ), and override (Ω) as formal operators that describe how representational states become physical trajectories. Version 1.1 consolidates the architecture into a fully integrated paradigm spanning neuroscience, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, physics (quantum and relativistic), biology, evolution, ecology, planetary systems, computation, information theory, and symbolic systems. The document provides a structural and mechanistic explanation for free will, identity, agency, coherence, and the stability of physical laws, offering a unified representational–physical model suitable for scientific review and interdisciplinary research.
