IndisputableMonolith.Cosmology.EarlyUniverse
The EarlyUniverse module identifies the Big Bang with the unique zero-defect initial state in Recognition Science. It treats this configuration as the minimum-cost ledger rather than a singularity. Cosmologists studying initial conditions would cite the module for its resolution of the low-entropy puzzle. The content assembles results from LawOfExistence and InitialCondition into cosmology-specific statements on the starting configuration.
claimThe initial state $s_0$ satisfies defect$(s_0)=0$ and realizes the minimum J-cost configuration, serving as the Big Bang initial condition.
background
Recognition Science derives physics from a single functional equation. The Law of Existence module states that x exists if and only if defect(x) = 0. The InitialCondition module formalizes the Past Hypothesis by showing that low entropy corresponds to this zero-defect state. Constants fix the fundamental time quantum as τ₀ = 1 tick in RS-native units.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs. It organizes imported theorems from Cost and LawOfExistence into cosmology declarations such as initial_state_is_zero_defect.
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module provides the starting point for the DarkEnergyEvolutionStructure module, which examines whether dark energy remains constant or evolves according to D-006. It completes the early-universe segment of the Recognition Science cosmology framework by grounding the initial condition in the minimum-cost state.
