Gate-based quantum computing, as demonstrated in The Structural Limitsof Quantum Computing, exhibits a fundamental mismatch between continuousquantum dynamics and the discrete stability required for digital computation. Thisstructural tension motivates a reformulation of computation itself. In this work,we propose a geometric and physically grounded foundation in which computationis defined as convergence. Our contributions are threefold:• A convergence-based axiomatization of computation. We definecomputation as the action of a convergence operator C : X → X satisfying aLyapunov-type monotonicity condition V (xt+1) < V (xt). This situates digitalstability within the general framework of dissipative dynamical systems andprovides a unified mathematical description of stable information processing.• A physical interpretation grounded in geometric stability. We showthat convergence operators arise naturally from physical principles: gradientflows, energy minimization, and topological invariants all realize stabilitythrough contraction toward fixed points. In this view, intrinsically topological architectures exemplify physical realizations of convergence rather thanspecial-purpose corrections to quantum instability.• A geometric reformulation of computational complexity. We reinterpret algorithmic difficulty in terms of the geometry of convergence: the length of convergent trajectories, the structure of attraction basins, and thecurvature of effective potential landscapes. This perspective separates complexity from the step-count assumptions of Turing-style models and insteadties it to physically meaningful stability mechanisms. Taken together, these results establish a physically motivated and geometricallycoherent foundation for computation. Convergence—rather than discrete logicaloperations—emerges as the fundamental mechanism enabling reliable informationprocessing in natural and engineered systems alike. This framework provides aprincipled path toward scalable, stable computation beyond gate-based quantumarchitectures and sets the stage for unified models of physical and algorithmicreasoning.

**Building on our earlier structural analysis of gate-based quantum computing,** recent advances in quantum technologies have further sharpened a long-standing tension between continuous quantum dynamics and discrete logical computation. Despite decades of progress in qubit coherence, fault-tolerant coding, and hybrid NISQ architectures, current quantum devices remain fundamentally constrained by a structural mismatch between fluctuating quantum states and the stability requirements of digital logic.This work extends and unifies that analysis by providing a geometry-based account of these limitations and situating quantum computing within a broader comparative framework of next-generation computation paradigms. The contributions of this work are threefold:• Historical and technical analysis: We review the evolution from Feynman’s proposal to Shor’s algorithm and modern fault-tolerance theory, highlighting how the community gradually shifted toward NISQ-based noisetolerant strategies.• Structural diagnosis of quantum limits: Building on the Protiformframework, we show that quantum systems inherently realize continuous fluctuation manifolds, whereas logical computation requires discrete convergencesurfaces. Measurement is therefore a forced collapse between incompatible geometries, making full fault-tolerant digital logic rendering practicalfault-tolerant scaling prohibitive—not merely technologically difficult.• Comparative evaluation of post-von Neumann architectures: Using a set of structural criteria (digital stability, noise resilience, scalability,native gate realizability, generality, and materials feasibility), we evaluatemajor candidates—quantum, photonic, neuromorphic, analog solvers, andtopological computing. The analysis shows that topological computing isthe only architecture satisfying all structural requirements, owingto its intrinsic protection of logical degrees of freedom by global invariants.Taken together, these results suggest that the fundamental limitation of quantum computing is not technological but structural. Protiform provides a unifiedexplanation for this boundary, while also identifying topological computing as thestructurally consistent path beyond the von Neumann paradigm.
This paper explores the synergistic convergence of geometric topology and quantum computing. We investigate the potential for utilizing quantum computing's inherent parallelism to accelerate and enhance geometric topology computations, specifically focusing on verification and novel exploration of topological properties. The core mechanism involves employing quantum algorithms to perform computationally intensive geometric analysis, coupled with the quantum computer's ability to detect subtle topological variations. The paper presents a framework for investigating the interplay between these two fields, highlighting the potential for groundbreaking discoveries. The research aims to reveal deeper geometric insights through the combined power of quantum computation and mathematical analysis.
This work introduces a minimal variational framework in which localized energy basins and their fixed points form the foundation for emergent quantum dynamics. Rather than imposing quantization axiomatically, discrete spectra arise naturally from geometric regularity, topological invariants, and adjacency-driven transport within a continuous relational configuration space. Key contributions include: Emergent Schrödinger Dynamics: Oscillatory modes near basin fixed points admit a complex structure, leading to a Schrödinger-type evolution derived from a quadratic variational principle rather than canonical quantization. Topology-Induced Quantization: Integer-valued invariants such as winding and linking numbers enforce discrete excitation spectra without probabilistic postulates. Hydrogenic Consistency: The framework reproduces the hydrogen spectrum with emergent parameters, matching experimental wavelengths to within 0.1 nm. Conceptual Foundations: Spacetime is treated as an emergent descriptor of basin adjacency and deformation, not as a pre-imposed manifold. This approach provides a conservative and mathematically rigorous route to quantum-like behavior grounded in geometry and topology, while remaining compatible with classical correspondence in the coarse-grained limit. Extensions to relativistic regimes, gauge structures, and gravitational coupling are deferred to future work. Keywords: Emergent quantum dynamics, fixed-point geometry, basin framework, topology-induced quantization, Schrödinger evolution, variational principles.

The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications of this unified approach for the future of quantum information processing.
Summary: Why does reality remain stable?Physics successfully describes how systems evolve, yet a more fundamental question remains largely unexplored: why do stable structures exist at all?Why does one informational configuration become a persistent physical object while countless alternative possibilities never stabilize? This paper proposes a common stabilization mechanism underlying quantum decoherence, Fourier analysis, machine learning, recursive systems, biological regulation, logical exclusion and language. This work may be of interest to researchers in: quantum foundations information theory complex systems logic computational physics machine learning philosophy of physics This manuscript develops the NNO operator step by step, examines its structural parallels across multiple disciplines, and discusses its implications for observer-relative reality, antimatter, and quantum spin. Description: The NNO Stabilization Operator This paper introduces the NNO operator (Negation–Negation–Oscillation), a minimal conceptual mechanism describing how informational configurations become stable and persistent through observation. Its central idea is straightforward: reality does not emerge simply because information accumulates. It emerges because informational configurations repeatedly survive confrontation with incompatible alternatives relative to the observer. Any direct interaction introduces orientation and polarity, which in turn generate a conjugate alternative. A single negation leaves an active ambiguity relative to the informational evolution of an observer. Stabilization therefore requires two inseparable and complementary mechanisms combined into one conceptual operator: Double Negation — a two-step exclusion process requiring a configuration to remain coherent after confrontation with its logical inverse and that of the observer. Oscillation — phase alternation that progressively removes dependence on origin, scale, and monotonic accumulation, leaving only phase-invariant informational structures. Within this framework, stable reality corresponds to informational patterns that remain invariant under repeated exclusion and phase alternation relative to an observer, validating informational structures across successive observations rather than merely selecting a local configuration. Background Although developed independently, remarkably similar stabilization processes appear throughout science and mathematics. Examples include: quantum decoherence and phase scrambling signal processing and Fourier phase integration renormalization and universality logical systems based on exclusion (NAND, NOR, intuitionistic logic) machine learning optimization, convergence and loss-driven exclusion recursive dynamical systems and fractal invariants biological regulation through oscillatory turnover and selective instability semantic stabilization in language and cognition Despite their different formalisms, all of these mechanisms progressively eliminate unstable possibilities until only robust, observer-relative structures remain.This work argues that these apparently unrelated phenomena may represent different manifestations of the same underlying informational principle. Main implications Within this framework, the NNO operator provides an informational interpretation of: observer-relative reality quantum decoherence phase-dependent emergence and stabilization of physical structures phase invariance exclusion-based stabilization persistence of informational structures A companion paper extends these ideas to quantum spin and phase-dependent observer effects. The paper further examines orientation-reversed invariants as a necessary boundary case for any stabilization operator, showing that NNO stabilization remains valid under inverted informational orientation. Within this perspective, antimatter can be described as the stabilization of the same informational structure under inverted orientation. This proposition is consistent with CPT symmetry and the Feynman–Stueckelberg interpretation, without invoking literal backward time propagation. Scope of this work This article is intentionally conceptual. It does not propose a new mathematical formalism or seek to replace established physical theories. Instead, it identifies a minimal stabilization mechanism that appears implicitly across numerous successful theoretical frameworks and proposes a unified informational interpretation of their common logic. The objective is to provide a conceptual foundation for future: mathematical formalization computational modeling independent verification cross-disciplinary investigation As such, the author welcomes constructive discussion, independent verification, mathematical formalization, and interdisciplinary collaboration.

(Doi: 10.5281/zenodo.18443042 This paper can be read independently, but reaches its full coherence when considered as part of the TUI–NNO–SPIN conceptual sequence.Together, these works propose a unified informational framework in which physical reality emerges from discrete informational interactions, while stable structures arise through recursive stabilization rather than accumulation alone. About the author Mathieu Valentin Rondet is an independent researcher investigating the informational foundations of physical reality through the Universal Theory of Information (TUI) research program. He holds two master's degrees in molecular biology, developmental biology, genetics, and biochemistry, completed in France and the United States. His academic background is complemented by more than twenty years of professional experience developing physically based simulations, procedural systems, and complex dynamic environments for the visual effects industry. His research combines concepts from information theory, complex systems, computational modeling, logic, and physics to investigate observer-relative informational structures and the emergence of stable physical phenomena. If the proposed stabilization mechanism does capture a genuine cross-domain invariant, it could provide a common conceptual foundation linking informational persistence across logic, computation, biology, and fundamental physics.
