Irreversibility of Experience - Preservation of the Core (Minimal Axiom Version)

Theorems: Irreversibility of Experience - Preservation of the Core (Minimal Axiom Version) This paper presents a rigorous formal system demonstrating the logical irreversibility of human experience from a minimal set of axioms. We model the relationship between lived events (E), destructive forces (F), interpretive theories (T), and the essential, indestructible Core (C) of an experience. Core Thesis and Results The work establishes that the persistence of meaning is a structural invariant, not an accidental phenomenon like nostalgia. Based on a minimal axiom set, the system formally derives three critical theorems: Theorem 1 - Irreversibility of the Core: The core of every experience is unerasable by any force. Theorem 2 - Universal Preservation of the Core: That core is preserved by every possible theory. Theorem 3 - Non-negability of Experience: No theory can coherently prove that an experience that occurred did not occur. Conclusion and Implication The consequence is that experience is logically irreversible, phenomenologically indestructible, and epistemically non-negatable. This provides a formal framework showing that the death of the medium is not the death of the meaning. The persistence of the self resides in this structural core, an embedding that no theory can dissolve. The practical implication is that any act of "rescue" (e.g., restoring degraded media, using AI for enhancement, embedding memories) is an act of logical physics, not mere nostalgia.
