Foundation Logic From Cost
Logical consistency is the minimum-cost structure of recognition configurations, and this module establishes the core theorems in a machine-checked way.
Foundation Logic From Cost Consistent Minimum Cost
In Recognition Science, a consistent statement is the cheapest possible state: its cost is zero exactly when its presence is balanced at one.

In a ledger where every configuration carries a price, a contradiction is either infinitely expensive or impossible, which is how logic gets a bill.

A theorem in a machine-checked library shows that the basic operations of logic, AND, OR, and NOT, appear as the cheapest stable states of a cost function.

A machine-checked proof that the framework's hyperbolic cosine obeys the standard exponential formula, and nothing more.
Foundation Logic Real Transcendentals Exp L Log L
The exponential and natural logarithm are inverse operations on positive numbers, a fact so basic that it underpins compound interest, radioactive decay, and the pH scale.

A machine-checked theorem shows that the arithmetic a recognition process forces internally cannot collapse into the real numbers, a fact with a precise scope.
Foundation Magnitude Of Mismatch
A comparison that gives one answer for a pair of things must give the same answer regardless of order; the framework proves this is the only consistent reading.
Foundation Magnitude Of Mismatch Asymmetric Not Single Valued
A comparison that gives different answers when you swap the two things being compared cannot be a single, well-defined function on the pair.
Foundation Magnitude Of Mismatch Equality Cost Single Valued
A comparison that gives one answer regardless of order is the same thing as a symmetric comparison, and the equality-induced cost is one such comparison.

A single comparison function, applied to a pair without ordering, must treat both orders alike: the framework proves symmetry is forced, not chosen.

A comparison that gives one answer must give the same answer either way around; the framework's library proves this equivalence and names what it does not.
Foundation Magnitude Of Mismatch Single Valued Implies Symmetric

A comparison that gives one answer regardless of the order of its inputs is, by definition, symmetric; a machine-checked theorem makes this equivalence precise.
