IndisputableMonolith.Information.ChurchTuringPhysicsStructure
The module defines the 8-tick phase space with phases 0 through 7 together with discrete ledger states and transitions that embed Church-Turing limits inside Recognition Science. Researchers tracing information bounds or simulation arguments cite it when moving from the RS time quantum to computability structures. The module is definitional, establishing finiteness of the phase space and ledger without deductive proofs.
claimThe 8-tick phase space $\Phi = \{0,1,\dots,7\}$ equipped with finite phase functions, discrete ledger states, and transitions that satisfy the computation limits derived from RS.
background
Constants supplies the RS time quantum $\tau_0 = 1$ tick. ComputationLimitsStructure shows that Bremermann's limit, Landauer's bound, and quantum computation limits arise from three RS sources. The present module sits in the Information domain and introduces Phase as the 8-element set together with numPhases, phase_space_finite, DiscreteLedgerState, and LedgerTransition to make the ledger computable.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs.
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module supplies the phase-space and ledger objects required by church_turing_physics_structure, which is imported by SimulationHypothesisStructure. That downstream module dissolves the simulation hypothesis rather than refuting it, using the finite 8-tick structure to show that real and simulated physics are indistinguishable inside RS. The construction directly instantiates the eight-tick octave (T7) of the forcing chain.
