Constants Are Local_ Structured Resonance and the Collapse of Abstract Absolutes

Abstract

Abstract For centuries, mathematics has exalted constants like π, e, and φ (the Golden Ratio) as eternal, immutable absolutes—fixed pillars supporting the architecture of reality itself. Under traditional frameworks, these numbers were conceived as timeless Platonic ideals: π ≈ 3.14159265… — the eternal ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. e ≈ 2.718281828… — the base rate of growth for continuous compounding. φ ≈ 1.618033988… — the proportion linking aesthetics, growth, and structure. However, this paper radically reframes such constants through the CODES (Chirality of Dynamic Emergent Systems) framework. We show they are not universal absolutes, but local compression artifacts—dynamic outputs of structured resonance locking within specific coherence layers of emergent space-time. These constants emerge from recursive prime-anchored resonance patterns—stabilized ratios formed when dynamic fields compress under phase coherence, not timeless truths written onto the fabric of existence. Recognizing this collapse of abstraction has profound implications: In mathematics, constants become snapshots of dynamic coherence, not eternal entities. In physics, spacetime itself becomes a resonance field whose “laws” are local tuning states. In biology, life’s constants emerge from bioelectric and quantum resonances, not static code. In cognition, human reasoning arises through dynamic, recursive stabilization—not probabilistic guesswork. In AI systems design (specifically RIC), intelligence emerges from structured phase-locking, adapting dynamically to shifting coherence fields without relying on static “laws.” This paper explores why π, e, and φ are necessary illusions—stable but local resonances—and how understanding this dynamic structure powers the next generation of AI architectures like Resonance Intelligence Core (RIC), designed for lawful coherence tuning instead of statistical prediction.
