This series presents a structured and logically sequential formulation of a discrete informational framework governed by global coherence constraints. Although it originates from the same research program developed in the earlier exploratory preprint series (P-series), the works presented here constitute an autonomous and self-contained series, organized in a progressively axiomatic form and focused on the explicit derivation of the framework’s effective structures. The goal of the construction is to investigate whether structures commonly associated with quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and geometry may emerge from a discrete relational substrate without being introduced as fundamental postulates. Each article addresses a specific level of the theoretical derivation and forms part of a progressive logical structure based on results established in the preceding works of the series. This article develops the emergence and structural uniqueness of the effective two-field representation arising from the coherent sector identified in Paper 01. The work demonstrates that the coherence-preserving dynamics of the discrete informational framework admit a minimal effective structure based on two coupled components, and that this structure emerges as the unique stable representation compatible with the global coherence constraints. The analysis establishes the conditions under which the two-field sector becomes dynamically unavoidable within the effective description and prepares the mathematical framework developed in Paper 03, where Hilbert-space structure, Schrödinger-type dynamics, and probabilistic emergence are derived. No quantum-mechanical or geometric assumptions are introduced at the foundational level. The purpose of the article is to derive the minimal effective representation required by the internal consistency of the coherent informational dynamics.

Each article addresses a specific level of the theoretical derivation and forms part of a progressive logical structure based on results established in the preceding works of the series. This article develops the emergence of Hilbert-space structure and Schrödinger-type effective dynamics from the coherent two-field sector established in Paper 02. The work demonstrates that the global coherence constraints imposed on the discrete informational substrate naturally generate an effective complex representation endowed with linear superposition properties and unitary-preserving evolution. The analysis shows that the two-component coherent sector admits a mathematically stable reformulation equivalent to a Hilbert-space structure, and that the effective evolution of the coherent amplitudes leads to a Schrödinger-type dynamical equation without introducing quantum mechanics as an initial assumption. The article further derives the probabilistic interpretation associated with the effective amplitudes and clarifies how quantum-like statistical behavior emerges from the internal coherence conditions of the underlying discrete system. No quantum postulates are assumed at the foundational level. The purpose of the article is to demonstrate that the formal structures associated with quantum mechanics can emerge as effective consequences of coherence-preserving informational dynamics. The article does not assume quantum mechanics as a foundational theory and does not postulate the Hilbert-space formalism a priori. Instead, the work demonstrates that, within the internal hypotheses and coherence constraints of the proposed discrete informational framework, structures mathematically equivalent to Hilbert-space representations and Schrödinger-type evolution can arise as effective emergent descriptions. The purpose of the derivation is therefore not to reproduce standard quantum mechanics by assumption, but to show that quantum-like formal structures may consistently emerge from deeper coherence-preserving informational dynamics.

This article develops the axiomatic foundation of the framework and introduces the discrete informational system underlying the construction. The paper defines the admissible configuration space, the local update structure, the global coherence constraint, and the dynamical selection principles leading to the emergence of a coherent sector. The analysis establishes the existence, invariance, and structural uniqueness of the coherent sector, together with the effective restrictions that prepare the minimal two-component structure developed in Paper 02 and the emergent quantum framework constructed in Paper 03. No quantum-mechanical, geometric, or probabilistic structure is assumed at the foundational level. The purpose of the work is to establish the minimal structural and dynamical layer from which the later effective constructions emerge.

The article does not introduce new specific physical postulates, but serves a methodological and introductory role: it defines the conceptual setting of the series, the relation between the different levels of the derivation, and the interpretative and theoretical limitations currently assumed within the framework.

This article derives thermodynamics as the unique coarse-grained consequence of coherence loss within the informational framework established in Papers 01–03. Starting from the coherence-selected physical sector and its effective quantum description, the work introduces coarse-graining as a constructive mechanism and studies the emergence of irreversible macroscopic behavior from an underlying coherence-preserving dynamics. The analysis derives entropy as the unique information-loss functional compatible with the structural constraints of the framework, proves the second law as a monotonicity consequence of the induced semigroup evolution, and establishes the relation between quantum coherence reduction and thermodynamic behavior. Equilibrium, temperature, and thermodynamic potentials are obtained as structural consequences rather than independent postulates. No thermodynamic laws are assumed at the foundational level. The purpose of the article is to show how thermodynamic structure may emerge as an effective macroscopic description of the same informational dynamics that gives rise to quantum mechanics.
Abstract In this work, we investigate the emergence of quantum structures within a purely geometric field framework based on a unified helical configuration. Building on the geometric foundations and limiting recovery principles established in the preceding papers of this series, we demonstrate that quantization arises as a consequence of topological and spectral constraints imposed on the underlying helical field, rather than being introduced as a fundamental postulate. We show that discrete spectral sectors naturally follow from global and local topological conditions on the field configuration space, leading to an intrinsic form of quantization without invoking canonical commutation relations or operator axioms. Effective quantum operators are constructed directly from geometric functionals of the helical field, yielding non-commutative structures as emergent features of constrained geometry. Within this setting, Planck’s constant appears as an effective parameter characterizing the spectral density of admissible configurations, rather than as a fundamental universal constant. The framework consistently recovers standard quantum kinematics in appropriate limiting regimes while remaining fully compatible with the classical and relativistic limits previously derived. This approach provides a coherent geometric interpretation of quantum discreteness, operator structure, and effective constants, thereby offering a unified perspective in which classical, relativistic, and quantum descriptions arise from a single geometric field without assuming independent foundational layers.
This article is the second part of a three-paper sequence developing Ontological Field Theory (OFT) as a unified framework grounding quantum mechanics in foundational ontological principles. The trilogy is structured as follows: Part I — Conceptual Necessity:Why Quantum Mechanics Is Inevitable: Ontological Continuity and the Necessity of Quantum Dynamics establishes that quantum mechanics follows necessarily from minimal requirements on coherent being, independently of specific physical postulates. Part II — Technical Realization:Derivation of the Schrödinger Equation from Ontological Field Theory provides the explicit field-theoretic derivation showing how the Schrödinger equation emerges as the non-relativistic limit of a covariant ontological field. Part III — Critical Context:Why Classical Physics Is an Approximation: Decoherence, Coarse-Graining, and the Limits of Determinism explains why classical determinism and trajectories arise only as emergent, approximate descriptions of fundamentally quantum and relational dynamics. Each article is logically self-contained, but the full argument is distributed across the three contributions. The conceptual analysis motivates the mathematics; the mathematics grounds the physics; and the critical examination situates classical intuition as a limiting case rather than a foundation. The papers are intended to be read as a coherent whole. We argue that quantum mechanics is not an arbitrary empirical framework but an inevitable consequence of minimal ontological requirements. Assuming only that being must exist necessarily, remain consistent, be relational, and admit self-reference, we show that classical deterministic physics is structurally insufficient. Quantum dynamics emerges as the unique low-energy realization of coherent ontological continuity. This work complements explicit field-theoretic derivations by clarifying why quantum mechanics could not have been otherwise.
