Unified Consciousness Theory I: Ontic Structure, Physical Views, and the Structural Continuity from Physical Process to Conceptual Self

TA-TR-2026-20 v1.1, a strengthened successor version of Unified Consciousness Theory I. This revision distinguishes token-relative ontic organization from scientific views and estimates, makes the A5-OI injective structural-identity commitment explicit, repairs theorem dependencies, adds a scoped subject non-selection theorem, develops a structural-evolutionary synthesis from elementary physical processes to conceptual selfhood, and introduces failure-prone operational bridge methodology. A1 and A5-OI remain foundational/metaphysical commitments; the evolutionary examples do not prove them. Not peer reviewed.
