Shunyaya Symbolic Mathematics — Positioning & Guarantees

Abstract
Shunyaya Symbolic Mathematics (SSM) extends scalars to pairs (m, a) where m is magnitude and a ∈ [-1, +1] encodes centre vs drift. Classical arithmetic is preserved under the collapse phi(m,a) = m.


🔭 Positioning & universality

  • Conservative extension: SSM augments numbers; it does not replace them.
  • 🔁 Collapse guarantee (for all operations defined herein): phi(x oplus y) = phi(x) + phi(y) phi(x otimes y) = phi(x) * phi(y)
  • 🔒 Backward-compatibility: all classical identities hold under phi.
  • 🎯 Added resolution: two equal magnitudes can differ in stability (alignment).
  • 🧭 Practical leverage: forecasts, signals, and risks gain a centre–drift axis.

🧩 What this framework is

  • A symbolic numeral is a pair (m, a), with m a classical real magnitude and a a bounded, dimensionless alignment factor in [-1, +1].
  • Interpretation: a near +1 ⇒ centred, robust; a near −1 ⇒ drift/instability.
  • Test oracle: if all a = +1, results match classical arithmetic to machine precision.

🛡️ Guarantees (scope of correctness)

  • Collapse preserves sums and products exactly as shown above.
  • Alignment remains bounded by design; edge cases at |a| = 1 are treated as limits.
  • Defaults are declared explicitly elsewhere; any deviation must be stated in-page.
