Persistence Science

From Information Theory to Cosmology
The science of how systems survive, adapt, and resist decay through time.
WHAT IS PERSISTENCE SCIENCE?

Persistence
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A scientific discipline seeking universal principles governing persistence across physical, biological, technological, economic, institutional, and cosmological systems.
What do civilizations, economies, institutions, religions, ecosystems, and galaxies have in common?
Persistence.
THE ODERO AXIOM
The Persistence Condition
C(I) × E > D
Information directed through energy must exceed decay.
Everything else follows.

Essential entry points for exploring the Persistence Science literature.

FOUNDATION
Parent Axiom
Odero Axiom
Establishes the foundational mathematical baseline that C(I) × E > D dictates system survival.
FOUNDATION
Core Laws
Laws of Persistence Science
Formalizes the universal Persistence Principle and unified laws governing system survival, structural stability, and collapse.
FOUNDATION
Index Formula
Information Index I = S × ηI
Measures effective information through the interaction of Information Structure and Information Efficiency.
FOUNDATION
Index Formula
Persistence Index Ω = C(I)E / D
Quantifies the overall capacity of a system to maintain structural integrity against entropic decay.
APPLICATION FRAMEWORK
Legitimacy Theory
General Theory of Legitimacy
Explains how institutional trust and alignment underpin long-term political and social stability.
