ITU and Law & Jurisprudence: A Single-Axiom View of Constitutional Law, Criminal Law, Civil Law, International Law, Human Rights, AI Ethics, Intellectual Property, and Procedural Justice — Pass-1 Extension Paper #5, Block C 3/6

We apply the Information-Theoretic Unification (ITU) framework (Terada 2026,concept DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20109209; Tier 0 v3.0 at 10.5281/zenodo.20200156) tolaw and jurisprudence. Tier 1 paper #35, fifth paper of Pass-1 extension,Block C 3/6 (HALF MILESTONE of social/humanities/arts). Introduces K_law across 8 sub-states (constitutional, criminal, civil,international, human rights, AI ethics, IP, procedural). ITU axiom delta S =delta <K> verified to machine precision in 11 contexts. 35-vertex ITU polytope. Theoretical position: Law operates as K-state normalization mechanism;constitutional law = top prior; criminal/civil law regulate norm-violationand private agreements; procedural law sets game rules; international lawcoordinates national K-states; AI ethics builds new K-state attractors forthe digital age.
