Quantum Collapse Geometry

Authors: Garner, Stephen;

Quantum Collapse Geometry

Abstract

Quantum Collapse Geometry (QCG) is a completed research framework exploring how physical structure emerges from collapse-driven selection, phase relations, and constraint dynamics. The core QCG series (Parts 1–7) develops a unified generative ontology for spacetime, geometry, and time without modifying orthodox quantum mechanics. Companion essays explore conceptual extensions into classical stability, equilibrium, and biological normativity. The series is intended for readers comfortable with quantum mechanics, open systems, and emergent structure, but does not assume commitment to any particular interpretation. “To Carl Sagan, who taught us that we are the cosmos, and that science belongs to us all.I hope this work reflects even a fraction of the generosity you gave the world.” In addition to the core QCG series, the following papers explore related conceptual and ontological questions that arise in collapse-driven and emergent systems. These works are not part of the formal QCG sequence and are not required to follow the main arguments. They are provided for readers interested in the broader interpretive structure surrounding collapse, emergence, and classical stability. (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17970677, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17959868) *Selected components of the framework are being prepared for peer review and domain-specific engagement. Earlier papers are being updated to reflect consolidated notation and formal structure.
