# **Final And Severable Claims for the Patent Application**
These claims are structured to ensure **severability**, **independence**, and **compliance with USPTO requirements**. Each claim contains only one statement or clause, and they are organized to cover the core principles and dependent features of the invention. If any part of any claim is invalidated, it does not affect the validity of the core invention or other related claims.

# **Key Enhancements for Severability and Independence**
1. **Each Claim Contains One Statement:**
Each claim is formulated to contain only one statement or clause, ensuring that each claim is independent and can stand alone.
2. **Core Invention Protected:**
- **Independent Claim 1:** Covers the core invention (PIP maintaining superposition-like states of PIUs).
- **Independent Claim 2:** Covers the core method (applying partial measurements to PIUs).
3. **Dependent Claims Are Severable:**
- **Dependent Claims 3–20:** Add specific features (e.g., feedback mechanisms, attractor states, topological encoding) without compromising the base claims.
- If any dependent claim is invalidated, the core invention (Claims 1 and 2) remains intact.
4. **Avoiding Conjunctive Clauses:**
- Avoided “and” clauses in independent claims to ensure each element is distinct and severable.
5. **Broad and Specific Claims:**
- **Broad Claims:** Cover the core invention (Claims 1 and 2).
- **Specific Claims:** Add refinements (Claims 3–20) without tying them to the core invention.
6. **Avoiding Over-Specificity:**
- **Generic Terms:** Used terms like “probabilistic information units (PIUs)” and “probabilistic information processor (PIP)” to avoid over-limiting the scope.
- **Mathematical Formulas:** Used entropy thresholds (\( H(X) < k \ln(N) \)) and predefined criteria (\( H(X) \leq \frac{k_B \ln(N)}{2} \)) to ensure specificity without over-limiting.

# **Example Of Severability**
- **If Claim 6 (topological PIUs) is invalidated:**
Claims 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7–20 remain valid. The core invention (PIP maintaining superposition-like states) is unaffected.
- **If Claim 10 (entropy threshold) is invalidated:**
Claims 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7–9, 11–20 remain valid. The core invention (PIP maintaining superposition-like states) is unaffected.

# **Conclusion**
This claim structure ensures that the **core invention** (PIP maintaining superposition-like states) is protected, while dependent claims add specific features without compromising the base claims. Each claim is **severable**, **independent**, and **grounded in enablement**, ensuring robust protection and compliance with USPTO requirements.
