A Mathematical Definition of Consciousness from the PFCA Field-Core Perspective — Expanded Mathematical, Numerical, and Falsification Edition
Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) July 17, 2026 Pasquale Kaboth
Consciousness may emerge from recursively organized field dynamics rather than from static symbolic processing, according to the Plasma Field Core Architecture (PFCA) framework. The framework proposes that cognition, perception, memory, and awareness arise through interactions of dynamically coupled field operators, emphasizing recursive backward reconstruction, attractor geometry, multi-scale coherence, and self-organizing field dynamics. Consciousness is interpreted as a continuously evolving coherent field state generated through recursive integration across multiple spatial and temporal scales. PFCA aims to provide a formal mathematical and conceptual architecture suitable for analysis, computational implementation, and empirical investigation, presented as an open scientific proposal to stimulate discussion and refinement.
