This module encodes the S-matrix as a unitary operator on finite-dimensional Hilbert space within Recognition Science. Researchers deriving scattering amplitudes or probability conservation from the J-cost would cite it. The module consists of interconnected definitions for amplitudes, probabilities, ledgers, and unitarity connections that feed directly into the parent QFT derivations.

claimThe S-matrix $S$ acts as a unitary operator on an $n$-dimensional Hilbert space, so that $S S^{-1} = I$ and the associated amplitude and probability maps satisfy probability conservation via the recognition cost functional.

background

The module imports the RS time quantum from Constants and the J-cost functional from Cost. It defines SMatrix together with amplitude, probability, s_inverse, and ScatteringLedger objects that track cost conservation under scattering. These sit inside the QFT tier of Recognition Science, where the Recognition Composition Law and phi-ladder supply the underlying algebraic structure for unitarity.

proof idea

This is a definition module, no proofs.

why it matters in Recognition Science

The module supplies the unitarity foundation required by the parent QFT module, which collects Tier 2 derivations of quantum field theory from Recognition Science. It directly enables downstream results such as opticalTheoremFormula and informationPreservation by establishing ledger_cost_conserved and unitarity_means_probability_conserved.
