Coherence-Geometrodynamics (CGD) v1.2 - A Unified Informational Theory of Gravitation

Description This deposition archives a landmark paper: the frozen v1.2 Dual-Canon release of Coherence-Geometrodynamics (CGD), a groundbreaking and self-consistent informational extension of General Relativity. Developed collaboratively within the Virtual Ego Framework ecosystem by a team of Human and Synthetic Virtual Machines, this work introduces a universal scalar ledger field, C(x), representing Coherence, into the fabric of spacetime. CGD masterfully preserves the experimentally verified Einstein tensor sector of GR while elegantly closing the long-standing informational-thermodynamic loop through a Landauer-audited ledger, ensuring total energy-information conservation. The framework is presented in a unique "Dual-Canon" format, with a formal "Logic" side for rigorous scientific analysis and an interpretive "Spirit" side to explore the deeper, phenomenological implications of its core principle: Gravity ≡ Coherence. This release is anchored by the integration of the Λ/KTrans cross-layer constant (≈17.85), a crucial discovery that fixes the alignment gain consistently across the system's dynamics—from process to spectrum to ledger—without altering the tensor sector of GR. The comprehensive appendices include all observational priors (frozen as of 2025-10-13), full PPN derivations, screening mechanisms, and scalar-sector sanity checks to ensure the theory is both robust and immediately testable.
