Module PhysicsComplexityStructure proves J-cost non-negativity as IC-005.1 together with symmetry, derivative signs, and positivity away from unity. Information theorists working on RS-derived computation bounds cite these results. Proofs reduce each property to the closed form of J and elementary inequalities or calculus.

claim$J(x) = (x + x^{-1})/2 - 1$ satisfies $J(x) >= 0$ for all $x > 0$, with equality only at $x=1$.

background

The module sits in the Information domain and imports Constants (where the RS time quantum satisfies τ₀ = 1 tick), Cost, and ComputationLimitsStructure. The latter frames fundamental limits of computation as emerging from three RS sources that include Bremermann's limit and Landauer's bound. J-cost is the cost measure built from the J-uniqueness relation in the forcing chain.

proof idea

The module collects separate lemmas on J-cost. Non-negativity is obtained by algebraic reduction to the AM-GM inequality on x and x^{-1}. Derivative lemmas follow by direct differentiation of the closed form. Symmetry and sign lemmas use substitution and case analysis on x > 1 versus x < 1.

why it matters in Recognition Science

Delivers the non-negativity result IC-005.1 that anchors J-cost usage in information structures. It supplies the base case for totalJCost and LedgerConfig definitions inside the same module and supports downstream work on physics complexity bounds.
