Shunyaya Symbolic Mathematics — Concept primer: Pearo, Nearo, and the centric axis (1.1)

Abstract
In SSM, every number is a pair (m, a). Here m is the classical magnitude and a ∈ [-1, +1] is a bounded alignment factor indicating how centred (stable) or edge-leaning (drifting) a value is. This page introduces the core terms—Pearo, Zearo, Nearo—and the practical rules for reading and declaring a.


🔄 What changes

In classical math, numbers are single scalars. In SSM, each value is a pair:

  • m — magnitude (the classical scalar)
  • aalignment in [-1, +1] that encodes closeness to centre (stability) vs drift (instability)

🧩 Key terms in use today

  • Pearo (a > 0): centre-leaning, stability-aligned.
  • Nearo (a < 0): edge-leaning, drift-aligned.
  • Zearo (a ≈ 0): neutral or undecided alignment.

Together, these three states let every number carry both its size and its context.


🔒 Why a is bounded (-1 to +1)

  • Stability: keeps all operations in a safe, consistent range.
  • Interpretability: a universal, comparable centre ↔ edge scale.
  • Auditability: every result carries explanatory metadata, not just a raw value.

🧭 The five Z-states (larger framework)

For practice, we use Zearo, Pearo, and Nearo (computable, measurable). Quearo and Mearo are conceptual extensions for quantum/higher-order logic.

Name     Symbol  Description                            Domain examples
Zearo    Z0      Neutral zero; undecided alignment      Arithmetic, geometry
Pearo    Z+      Positive-leaning zero; stability       Calculus, signals
Nearo    Z-      Negative-leaning zero; drift           Limits, chaos, transitions
Quearo   Zq      Quantum zero; zero-point uncertainty   QFT, information theory
Mearo    Zm      Meta-zero; container of zero states    Set theory, AI logic

(ASCII symbols are used intentionally: Z0, Z+, Z-, Zq, Zm.)


🗂️ Five-state lens (optional reporting)

These bands are for dashboards; core math remains continuous in a.

  • Strong Nearo: [-1.0, -0.6] → high drift risk
  • Mild Nearo: (-0.6, -0.2] → emerging drift
  • Zearo: (-0.2, +0.2) → neutral / indecisive
  • Mild Pearo: [+0.2, +0.6) → emerging stability
  • Strong Pearo: [+0.6, +1.0] → high stability

🧾 Declaring alignment (a) in practice

Two lawful, commonly used mappings (declare one in the page Manifest):

Centered-from-earned-alignment:  a = 2*SyZ_t - 1
Rapidity-from-drift-contrast:    a = tanh( c * (A_t - Z_t) )   where c > 0

Include parameters and clamp policy with each dataset or example.


🧰 Edge-state handling (rapidity)

Compute in rapidity space and map back to keep |a| < 1:

u = atanh(a)
a' = tanh(u)
if |a| >= 1 - eps:  a = sign(a) * (1 - eps)   # default eps = 1e-6


📌 Why this matters (illustrative mini-examples)

  • Same magnitude, different futures
    Classical: 64 = 64
    Symbolic: (64, +0.8) vs (64, -0.3) → one system strengthening, the other weakening.
  • Centre becomes explicit
    Classical: 10 - 4 = 6
    Symbolic: (10, +0.2) ominus (4, -0.3) = (6, -0.1) → result leans toward 9, exposing centre shift.

✅ Takeaway

Numbers retain their size (m) and now also declare their alignment (a). This minimal extension turns arithmetic from static calculation into predictive, auditable computation.

Transition note
Sections that follow build the algebraic, analytic, and geometric rules for symbolic numerals. Each rule is designed so that:

  • Classical math is recovered when a = +1 (collapse guarantee).
  • SSM adds a second stability axis without breaking classical results.
