🧮 Mathematical Foundations

$3

Strange loops emerge through self-referential systems where:
- Level 0 (Reasoner): Performs actions on state
- Level 1 (Critic): Evaluates reasoner performance
- Level 2 (Reflector): Modifies reasoner policy
- Strange Loop: Control returns to modified reasoner

Consciousness emerges when integrated information Φ exceeds threshold:

`
Φ = min_{partition} [Φ(system) - Σ Φ(parts)]
`

$3

The framework computes solutions before data arrives by:

1. Prediction: Extrapolate future state from current trends
2. Preparation: Compute solutions for predicted states
3. Validation: Verify predictions when actual data arrives
4. Adaptation: Adjust predictions based on error feedback

This enables sub-microsecond response times in distributed systems.

$3

Quantum and classical domains interact through:

`rust
// Quantum influences classical
let measurement = quantum_state.measure();
classical_memory.store("quantum_influence", measurement);

// Classical influences quantum
let feedback = classical_memory.get("classical_state");
quantum_state.apply_rotation(feedback * π);
`
