Abstract
The Structure of Everything Interaction (SEI) is a unifying theoretical framework that proposes all phenomena in the universe—physical, biological, cognitive, symbolic, and metaphysical—emerge from a single triadic structure: two fixed poles and a dynamic, mediating interaction that generates consequence.
1. Introduction
Modern physics remains bifurcated: quantum mechanics governs the subatomic world through uncertainty, superposition, and non-locality, while general relativity describes the curvature of spacetime and the gravitational dynamics of massive bodies. Despite their empirical success, these two theories remain fundamentally incompatible.
SEI proposes a triadic interactional structure: A (fixed polarity), B (opposite polarity), and Ψ (dynamic interaction), yielding consequence C:
SEI(A, B) = Ψ → C = f(A, B, Ψ)
2. The Foundational Triadic Structure
SEI(A, B) = Ψ → C = f(A, B, Ψ)
Applications: QM, GR, Biology, Cognition, Theology
3. SEI as a Field Structure
Φ(x, t) = I[A(x, t), B(x, t)]
C(x, t) = f(A, B, Φ)
κ = ∇Φ
dΦ/dt = H(A, B, Φ)
4. SEI Time Operator
τ = dC/dΦ
τ(x, t) = dC(x, t)/dΦ(x, t)
5. SEI Evolution and Conservation
dΨ/dt = H(A, B, Ψ)
d/dt [S(A, B, Ψ)] = 0
L = 1/2 |∇Ψ|² - V(A, B, Ψ)
6. SEI in Quantum Mechanics
Ψ_QM = I(|ψ⟩, Ô)
C_QM = ⟨ψ|Ô|ψ⟩ = f(|ψ⟩, Ô, Ψ_QM)
dΨ/dt = -λ(Ψ - Ψ_c)
7. SEI in General Relativity
Φμν = I(Tμν, gμν) → Gμν = f(Tμν, gμν, Φμν)
κμν = ∇μ∇ν Φ
τ(x) = dC/dΦ(x)
8. SEI in Cosmology
(dΦ/dt)² = H(A, B, Φ)
dS_SEI/dt < 0
9. SEI in Biology, Cognition, Symbolism
Biology: Φ_bio = I_base(A, B)
Cognition: Φ_cog = I(subject, object)
Symbolism: Φ_sem = I(signifier, signified)
10. SEI Postulates and Predictions
- Postulate 1: SEI(A, B) = Ψ → C = f(A, B, Ψ)
- Postulate 2: τ = dC/dΨ
- Postulate 3: κ = ∇²Ψ
- Evolution: dΨ/dt = H(A, B, Ψ)
- Predictions: decoherence, time dilation, triadic cognition
- Falsifiability: binary-only systems, uniform time flow, random collapse
11. Conclusion
Reality emerges from structured triadic interaction. SEI unites QM, GR, biology, cognition, and symbolic systems using one engine: A, B, Ψ → C.
