核心定理

定理 T2-3(编码优化定理)

EncodingOptimization : Prop ≡
∀S : System .
(SelfRefComplete(S) ∧ EntropyIncrease(S)) →
∃E* : S → Σ* .
IsOptimalEncoding(E*) ∧ E* = argmin_{E} L_max(E)

where
L_max(E) : ℕ ≡ max_{s ∈ S} |E(s)|
IsOptimalEncoding(E) : Prop (defined below)

辅助定义

编码效率

EncodingEfficiency : Type ≡ {
encoding : S → Σ*,
max_length : ℕ,
avg_length : ℝ,
alphabet_size : ℕ
}

L_max(E) : ℕ ≡ max_{s ∈ S} |E(s)|
L_avg(E) : ℝ ≡ (1/|S|) * Σ_{s ∈ S} |E(s)|

IsEfficient(E) : Prop ≡
L_max(E) ≤ c * log_{|Σ|} |S| for some constant c

最优性定义

IsOptimalEncoding(E) : Prop ≡
UniquelyDecodable(E) ∧
PrefixFree(E) ∧
SelfEmbeddable(E) ∧
AsymptoticallyOptimal(E)

where
AsymptoticallyOptimal(E) ≡
L_max(E) = O(log |S|)

信息论下界

引理 T2-3.1(信息论下界)

InformationTheoreticBound : Prop ≡
∀E : S → Σ* . UniquelyDecodable(E) →
L_max(E) ≥ log_{|Σ|} |S|

证明

Proof of information theoretic bound:
Given unique decodability requirement:

1. Need to encode |S| distinct states
2. Using alphabet of size |Σ|
3. Strings of length L can represent at most |Σ|^L states
4. Require: |Σ|^{L_max} ≥ |S|
5. Taking logarithm: L_max ≥ log_{|Σ|} |S| ∎

低效编码的矛盾

引理 T2-3.2(低效编码矛盾)

InefficientEncodingContradiction : Prop ≡
∀S,E . (SelfRefComplete(S) ∧ ¬IsEfficient(E)) →
¬CanDescribe(S, E)

where
CanDescribe(S, E) ≡ E ∈ S → Desc(E) ∈ L

证明

Proof by contradiction:
Assume inefficient encoding E with L_max(E) = c·|S| for c > 0:

1. As t → ∞, |S_t| → ∞ (by entropy increase)
2. For inefficient E: L_max(E) → ∞ rapidly

3. To describe E, need to store mapping table:
- For each s ∈ S, store pair (s, E(s))
- Each E(s) has length up to c·|S|
- Total storage: |S| × c·|S| = c·|S|²

4. Therefore |Desc(E)| ≥ c·|S|² → ∞

5. But self-referential completeness requires:
- Desc : S → L where L is finite strings
- ∀ℓ ∈ L : |ℓ| < ∞

6. Contradiction: |Desc(E)| → ∞ implies Desc(E) ∉ L

Therefore inefficient encoding violates self-reference ∎

优化必然性

引理 T2-3.3(优化必然性)

OptimizationNecessity : Prop ≡
∀S . (SelfRefComplete(S) ∧ EntropyIncrease(S)) →
∀E . (E encodes S) → IsEfficient(E)

证明

Proof of optimization necessity:
Given self-referential completeness and entropy increase:

1. By T2-1: Encoding mechanism must exist
2. By T2-2: All information must be encodable
3. By Lemma T2-3.2: Inefficient encoding leads to contradiction

4. Only efficient encodings are compatible with:
- Infinite state growth
- Finite description requirement
- Self-description capability

5. System must use efficient encoding to maintain:
- Self-referential completeness
- Ability to describe its own encoding function

Therefore optimization is necessary ∎

约束涌现

引理 T2-3.4(编码约束涌现)

EncodingConstraintEmergence : Prop ≡
∀E* . IsOptimalEncoding(E*) →
UniquelyDecodable(E*) ∧
PrefixFree(E*) ∧
SelfEmbeddable(E*)

where
UniquelyDecodable(E) ≡ ∀s₁,s₂ . s₁ ≠ s₂ → E(s₁) ≠ E(s₂)
PrefixFree(E) ≡ ∀s₁,s₂ . E(s₁) is not prefix of E(s₂)
SelfEmbeddable(E) ≡ E ∈ Domain(E) ∧ E(E) ∈ Range(E)

证明

Proof of constraint emergence:
1. Unique decodability:
- Required for information preservation
- Without it, cannot recover original states

2. Prefix-free property:
- Enables immediate decodability
- Avoids ambiguity in parsing
- Necessary for streaming/real-time processing

3. Self-embeddability:
- E must encode itself (self-reference)
- E(E) must be valid encoding
- Required by self-referential completeness

These constraints emerge naturally from requirements ∎

主定理证明

定理:编码优化必然性

MainTheorem : Prop ≡
∀S . (SelfRefComplete(S) ∧ EntropyIncrease(S)) →
∃E* : S → Σ* .
E* = argmin_{E} L_max(E) ∧
L_max(E*) = O(log |S|)

证明

Proof of encoding optimization:
Given SelfRefComplete(S) and EntropyIncrease(S):

1. By T2-1: Encoding exists
2. By T2-2: All information encodable

3. By Lemma T2-3.1: L_max ≥ log_{|Σ|} |S|
4. By Lemma T2-3.2: Inefficient encoding impossible
5. By Lemma T2-3.3: Must use efficient encoding
6. By Lemma T2-3.4: Optimal encoding has required properties

7. Define E* as encoding achieving:
L_max(E*) = min{L_max(E) : E satisfies constraints}

8. E* exists and satisfies:
- L_max(E*) = O(log |S|)
- All required constraints
- Self-describability

Therefore system evolves optimal encoding ∎
