FOL’s semantic completeness). | H | D | | `Math::GoedelTheorems` | `Logic::Decidability` | `F-CHL`| A consequence of incompleteness is that sufficiently strong, consistent theories like Peano Arithmetic are undecidable. | H | D | | `Math::GoedelTheorems` | `Phil::HilbertsProgram` | `L-CTR` | Gödel’s Second Theorem, showing unprovability of consistency from within, refuted a central aim of Hilbert’s foundational program. | H | D | | `Math::Calculus` | `CM::Law2_Force` | `S-FORM`| Newton’s Second Law (F=ma) is a differential equation requiring calculus for its solution and analysis. | H | D | | `Math::Calculus` | `GR::EFE` | `S-FORM`| Einstein’s Field Equations are partial differential equations formulated using differential geometry, which builds on calculus. | H | D | | `Math::Calculus` | `QM::SchrodingerEq` | `S-FORM`| The Schrödinger Equation is a partial differential equation requiring calculus. | H | D | | `Math::Calculus` | `Math::Continuum` | `F-BAS`| Standard calculus (limits, derivatives, integrals) is rigorously defined based on the properties of the real number continuum. | H | D | | `Math::Calculus` | `Math::Zero` | `F-CHL`| Reliance on limits approaching zero can lead to singularities when applied naively to physical models (infomatics critique). | M | D | | `Math::DifferentialGeometry` | `GR` | `S-FORM`| Differential geometry provides the essential mathematical language (manifolds, tensors, curvature) for formulating general relativity. | H | D | | `Math::DifferentialGeometry` | `Math::Calculus` | `F-BAS`| Differential geometry extends calculus to curved spaces (manifolds). | H | D | | `Math::HilbertSpace` | `QM` | `S-FORM`| Hilbert spaces provide the mathematical framework for representing quantum states and operators. | H | D | | `Math::HilbertSpace` | `Math::Calculus` | `F-BAS` | Hilbert spaces integrate concepts from calculus (function spaces, inner products involving integrals). | H | D | | `Math::HilbertSpace` | `Math::LinearAlgebra` | `F-BAS` | Hilbert spaces are vector spaces, fundamentally relying on linear algebra concepts (vectors, operators, inner products). | H | D | | `Math::ProbabilityTheory` | `QM::BornRule` | `S-FORM`| The Born rule expresses measurement outcomes using the mathematical formalism of probability theory. | H | D | | `Math::ProbabilityTheory` | `StatMech` | `F-BAS`|

GR’s assumption of a continuous spacetime manifold relies on the mathematical concept of the continuum. | H | D | | `Math::Continuum` | `Problem::PlanckScale` | `F-CHL`| The physical relevance of the mathematical continuum is challenged at the Planck scale where quantum gravity effects are expected. | H | D | | `Math::Continuum` | `Infomatics::Axiom2` | `L-CON` / `F-BAS` | Infomatics’ Continuum Postulate aligns with the mathematical concept but reinterprets its physical meaning (potentiality field I). | M/H | D | | `Math::Zero` | `Math::Calculus` | `F-BAS`| Zero is essential for concepts like limits and origins in standard calculus. | H | D | | `Math::Zero` | `Problem::GRSingularity` | `C-INF`| Mathematical operations involving zero (e.g., division by zero in coordinate systems) contribute to the appearance of singularities in GR. | H | D | | `Math::Pi` | `Math::Calculus` | `S-COMP`| Pi appears ubiquitously in calculus, especially related to trigonometric functions, integration, and geometry. | H | D | | `Math::Pi` | `Concept::RotationalDynamics`| `F-BAS` | Pi fundamentally governs cyclical and rotational phenomena (infomatics Axiom 3). | H | D | | `Math::Pi` |

fundamentally governs scaling, recursion, and optimal proportion (infomatics Axiom 3). | M/H | D | | `Math::Phi` | `Concept::Renormalization` | `E-ANL` | Potential connection via scaling properties (speculative link to φ-recursive renormalization in infomatics). | L/M | D | | `Math::Base10` | `Math::Pi` | `F-CHL`| Base-10 decimals provide only approximations for π, introducing errors when modeling phenomena potentially governed by exact π ratios. | H | D | | `Math::Base10` | `Math::Phi` | `F-CHL`| Base-10 decimals provide only approximations for φ, introducing errors when modeling phenomena potentially governed by exact φ ratios. | H | D | | `Math::Base10` | `Concept::ComputationalPhysics`| `F-CHL` | Reliance on base-10 and floating-point arithmetic introduces round-off/truncation errors in simulations. | H | D |
