The Ontological Boundary of Quantum Probability: Pre-Collapse Possibility versus Realised Physical Fact

David Michael Doy

This report develops the Generative Probability Calculus, a new foundation for probability based on the two‑phase ontology of latent and realised possibility. Classical probability assumes a fixed outcome space and a single mode of uncertainty, but as the report notes, this framework “cannot express collapse, generative reorganisation, or the emergence of geometric structure within expectation.” Building on the generative ontology introduced in *The Generative Architecture of Reality: A Nine‑Volume Theory of Creation* (Doy, 2026; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19369013), the paper defines realised and latent probability fields, introduces the generative probability derivative and integral, derives collapse as a variational update rule, and formulates continuation as smooth inference. Expectation acquires geometry through the generative metric, and the probability‑realisation tensor leads to a field equation governing curvature of expectation. The result is a unified probabilistic framework in which probability measures stability rather than outcomes, inference combines smooth continuation with discrete collapse, and expectation evolves according to a geometric field equation.

This report presents a stand‑alone generative resolution of the long‑standing conflict between quantum theory and general relativity. Instead of treating spacetime or probability as fundamental, the framework introduces possibility—existing in latent and realised modes—as the underlying substrate from which physical behaviour emerges. Quantum evolution, collapse, gravitational curvature, thermodynamic restructuring, and macroscopic identity are shown to be phase‑specific expressions of a single generative process.The central construct is the phase field, which governs transitions between predictive, collapse, geometric, developmental, and identity‑stabilising regimes. Quantum behaviour arises when predictive continuation and collapse dominate; gravitational behaviour emerges when stabilised realisation induces generative curvature; thermodynamic and renormalisation‑group behaviour appear in intermediate developmental regimes.By deriving quantum, gravitational, thermodynamic, and classical limits from the same generative law, the report dissolves the apparent contradictions between unitary evolution, collapse, curvature, locality, and nonlocality. The result is a unified ontology and dynamics in which probability, geometry, and identity are emergent rather than fundamental. The document is fully self‑contained and does not assume familiarity with previous work.

The relational interpretation (or RQM, for Relational Quantum Mechanics) solves the measurement problem by considering an ontology of sparse relative events, or "facts". Facts are realized in interactions between any two physical systems and are relative to these systems. RQM's technical core is the realisation that quantum transition amplitudes determine physical probabilities only when their arguments are facts relative to the same system. The relativity of facts can be neglected in the approximation where decoherence hides interference, thus making facts approximately stable.
