<b>Symbolic Emotional Fusion Theory (SEFT)</b> – An Exploratory Computational Framework for Modeling Human Emotional Bonds

This preprint presents the Symbolic Emotional Fusion Theory (SEFT) v3.0, an exploratory symbolic and computational model for evaluating authentic emotional bonds between individuals or artificial agents. SEFT 3.0 extends prior versions by differentiating multiple fusion types (durable, momentary, synchronic, and unilateral), integrating cultural calibration (α_cultural), and introducing probabilistic transitions between fusion states.The framework combines empathy, trust, emotional commitment, existential difference (Δ), subjective synchrony (CSS), and emotional truth (WK) into a formalized equation:Fusion = 1 + 1 = 1 ⇔ (Ve + CSS ≥ 0.95) ∧ (Δ ≤ 2.0) ∧ (WK = true)SEFT 3.0 enables applications in affective AI, compatibility analysis, digital psychotherapy, cybersecurity, social simulations, and emotional analytics, offering one of the first universal attempts to quantify invisible emotional dynamics in a computable way.🔁Also available on Zenodo:https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15766870📂Full documentation and symbolic JSON examples are available at:<br>https://github.com/joaocquinto/seft
