Formal Map of the Phenomenological Branch of the General Theory of Cognitive Structuring

This technical note provides a formal map of the phenomenological branch of the General Theory of Cognitive Structuring (GTCS). The document does not introduce a new phenomenological claim or a new branch object. Its purpose is to record the dependency order, active formal objects, layer relations, operator-level interfaces, reserved notation, methodological boundaries, and non-claims established across the v2 formalization cycle of the phenomenological branch. The map covers the sequence of works on inner manifestation, manifest trajectory accessibility, minimal directional organization, identity-bounded continuation, perceptual stabilization, affect-like organization of coherence representation, symbolic capture, and qualitative manifestation with cross-system readability. The note distinguishes active v2 objects from reserved or future objects. Active objects include, among others, the manifest/admissible/realized trajectory layers, identity-bounded continuation layers, historically compressed processing blocks, perceptual recruitment and stabilization thresholds, projected directional contrast, symbolic fixation, and symbolic divergence. The central contribution of the note is an auditable dependency structure in which wider fields of manifestation are progressively distinguished from narrower layers of expression, admissibility, enactment, stabilization, symbolic fixation, qualitative expression, and cross-system readability. The document also includes a dependency/object registry, a reserved-objects table, a methodological boundary, and a non-claims register. The note is intended as a verification-oriented reference for dependency discipline, object introduction, non-circularity, reserved notation, and later operationalization of the phenomenological branch. It prepares the ground for a dedicated operational model framework without introducing measurement models, observational proxies, semantic decoders, emotion classifiers, or readability metrics.

Abstract

This technical note provides a formal map of the phenomenological branch of the General Theory of Cognitive Structuring (GTCS). The document does not introduce a new phenomenological claim or a new branch object. Its purpose is to record the dependency order, active formal objects, layer relations, operator-level interfaces, reserved notation, methodological boundaries, and non-claims established across the v2 formalization cycle of the phenomenological branch. The map covers the sequence of works on inner manifestation, manifest trajectory accessibility, minimal directional organization, identity-bounded continuation, perceptual stabilization, affect-like organization of coherence representation, symbolic capture, and qualitative manifestation with cross-system readability. The note distinguishes active v2 objects from reserved or future objects. Active objects include, among others, the manifest/admissible/realized trajectory layers, identity-bounded continuation layers, historically compressed processing blocks, perceptual recruitment and stabilization thresholds, projected directional contrast, symbolic fixation, and symbolic divergence. The central contribution of the note is an auditable dependency structure in which wider fields of manifestation are progressively distinguished from narrower layers of expression, admissibility, enactment, stabilization, symbolic fixation, qualitative expression, and cross-system readability. The document also includes a dependency/object registry, a reserved-objects table, a methodological boundary, and a non-claims register. The note is intended as a verification-oriented reference for dependency discipline, object introduction, non-circularity, reserved notation, and later operationalization of the phenomenological branch. It prepares the ground for a dedicated operational model framework without introducing measurement models, observational proxies, semantic decoders, emotion classifiers, or readability metrics.
