This work is devoted to the philosophical and methodological substantiation of the transition from the classical dualistic worldview to the paradigm of substantial trialism within the developing conceptual framework of the Theory of the Trialistic Phase Continuum (TTPC). The article aims to develop a trialistic model of the relationship between Information (Code), Matter (Corpuscle), and Energy (Wave) as irreducible, relatively autonomous, and interconnected aspects of a single causal reality. Within the framework of TTPC, a three-dimensional state space VIK is introduced, the coordinates of which denote the Corpuscle (variable K), the Wave (variable V), and the Code (variable I). The Corpuscle is interpreted as the aspect of localization and stable form, the Wave as the aspect of dynamics and transition, and the Code as the aspect of organization, distinction, and interconnectedness. The ratio of these coordinates is determined by the quadratic normalization condition:K² + V² + I² = 1The proposed geometric scheme is utilized to describe mixed configurations of reality and the inherently signed orientation of its phase facets. Based on this scheme, philosophical interpretations of quantum measurement and decoherence are developed, treating them as processes of state fixation and bond modification within a causal continuum. TTPC is also applied to analyze the interplay between structure, dynamics, and informational organization in complex systems, cosmology, biological evolution, and the philosophy of mind. It is demonstrated that the VIK space can serve as a multidisciplinary language for discussing the psychophysical problem, systemic organization, and the status of information within the fabric of reality. Outlines for further development of the model are traced, including the formalization of signed coordinates, the investigation of phase transitions, and the comparative analysis of TTPC against complex systems theories, structural realism, the philosophy of information, and integrated information theories. The model maintains a conceptual-theoretical status and is intended for further philosophical and formal expansion.

This preprint develops the I↔M hypothesis, a speculative ontological framework in philosophy of physics that interprets physical reality as an ultrafast local alternation between two limiting regimes: an informational phase (I-phase) and a manifestation phase (M-phase). In this vocabulary, information denotes the totality of accumulated relations, interactions, traces, and constraints that determine which continuations of a system remain physically admissible. An M-fact arises through factualization when an M-event crosses a factual threshold and leaves a distinguishable M-trace that enters subsequent causal history. The degree to which a fact becomes embedded in causal history is described by factual depth. The framework introduces the concepts of continuation profile, M-pattern, twilight regime, transition inheritance, causal compression, continuity cost, reconfiguration cost, event tempo, and co-possibility structure. It offers an ontological reading of the quantum-classical transition, physical records, causal continuity, time, gravity, the recurrence of laws, and the emergence of complex organization. The proposal does not replace quantum mechanics, general relativity, or the Standard Model; it does not derive the numerical values of c, ħ, or G; and it does not claim an experimentally confirmed mechanism. It is intended as a conceptual and philosophical contribution for critical discussion and future formalization.

Prevailing theories of consciousness may be characterized as either a physicalist view of mind with material building blocks that grow in complexity unto an emergent conscious experience, or as a dualistic model in which mind-body interaction is taken as the interface of conscious intent and unconscious bodily processing. Roger Penrose supports a model of consciousness that goes beyond dualism by adding a third domain [19]. The Three World model describes interconnected yet independent aspects of consciousness: Physical, Mental & Platonic. These three worlds are grounded in the three axioms of quantum mechanics: measurement, superposition and entanglement. The Mental World corresponds to the superposition principle in which all possible future realities are superposed as potentials before a choice is made. The superposition is analogous to the choices we make everyday. In the Physical World, the measurement principles states that the quantum system must collapse the superposed possibilities into a single actuality. The most peculiar phenomenon in quantum mechanics is entanglement. Quantum systems may be entangled in a timeless and spaceless way such that they will still be connected despite separation in space or time. The Platonic World is akin to entanglement, because mathematics and conceptual forms are unchanging regardless of space or time. Finally, a new model called Fractal Trialism is proposed which describes how there is a nested trialism within each of the three worlds in order to elaborate their interconnectedness. This model describes digital computers, quantum computers and shared experience.
This work presents the Theory of Quantum-Classical Crossover (TQCC), a conceptual proposal currently under development that seeks to explore the transition between quantum and classical regimes as a continuous process through which classicality emerges. The text is primarily explanatory, philosophical, and narrative in character. At this stage, it does not aim to present a rigorous physical formalism or a fully developed mathematical theory. Rather, its purpose is to articulate and clarify the central idea of the TQCC, tracing its conceptual development and exploring its possible implications. The proposal begins with the possibility of understanding the quantum and classical domains not as fundamentally separate realities, but as different regimes of a single underlying reality, connected by a progressive process of definition. In this context, the work introduces and explores the concept of a classicality parameter, represented by γ(t), as an initial attempt to describe this transition. The article also develops philosophical and ontological reflections surrounding the proposal and engages with questions related to quantum mechanics, decoherence, the emergence of classical reality, information, and the relationship between possibility and determination. The formulations presented should be regarded as preliminary and open to further development, reformulation, and mathematical formalization. The purpose of this version is primarily to document, present, and organize the hypothesis at its current stage of development, providing a starting point for future investigation and discussion within the scientific community.
A complete scientific theory encompasses not only mathematical formalism andphysical predictions but also a reflection on its own status. The ”MathematicalUniverse of Self-Reference” series has established, in previous works, a comprehensive framework ranging from the necessity of complex numbers to experimentaltests. However, where does this framework itself stand within the philosophy ofscience? How does it relate to mainstream interpretations of quantum mechanics(Copenhagen, Many-Worlds, QBism, etc.)? How does it respond to the century-olddebate between realism and anti-realism? This paper does not aim to ”defend” theself-referential universe but rather to provide a meta-theoretical positioning: wedemonstrate that the self-referential universe is essentially a form of modal structural realism. It inherits the core insights of structural realism but transcends thestatic nature of traditional structural realism through the concept of ”modal dimensions” (the imaginary part of complex numbers). On this basis, we analyze thecompatibility and divergences between the self-referential universe and other interpretive frameworks, revealing its unique position within the genealogy of scientificphilosophy. Finally, we discuss the implications of the self-referential universe forunderstanding core concepts such as ”reality,” ”information,” and ”measurement,”offering a philosophical ”self-reflexive” reflection for the entire series.
