Boundary-Constrained Persistence — Paper 4 the latest in the ongoing series on regime boundaries and structural limits in Relational Field Theory
How much complexity can a stable system sustain before it must reorganize?
The latest paper in my Boundary Science series explores a structural hypothesis: the persistence capacity of a regime may be fundamentally constrained by the structure of its boundary.
While previous papers explored regime definitions, persistence measures, and sensitivity amplification, this note introduces a higher-order structural principle: the persistence capacity of a regime is not determined solely internally, but is fundamentally constrained by the structure of its boundary.
In short: Boundaries don't just separate regimes — they set the upper limit on how much stable structure a regime can sustain.
This Boundary Persistence Principle offers a unifying layer that connects regime definition, boundary behavior, and the practical limits of organization. It is presented as a general constraint rather than a specific physical derivation, inviting further exploration and testing.

Comments and constructive feedback are always welcome — especially thoughts on how this principle might apply (or need refinement) in specific physical domains.
