Volume 25 — Collapse Time and Temporal Geometry
Time as Emergent from Golden-Base Dynamics
This volume reveals how time itself emerges from φ-constrained collapse processes. Past, present, and future are not fundamental but arise from the directional flow of trace entropy and observer perspectives.
