Abstract

Metatotal Triadic Metastable RCR and Q-RCR Models This paper introduces the Recursive-Collapse-Recombination (RCR) Model, a non-hierarchical, metastable framework that captures the fundamental dynamics of self-organizing systems across multiple domains. The RCR model describes metastability as an emergent process driven by three interdependent forces: recursion (self-similarity and iterative structuring), collapse (destabilization and phase shifts), and recombination (adaptive reconfiguration of past structures). Unlike conventional models, RCR is fully triadic, non-linear, and self-regulating, ensuring that no single force dominates permanently. I further extend this framework into the Quantum Recursive-Collapse-Recombination (Q-RCR) Model, which applies these principles to quantum systems, entangled structures, and networked intelligence. Q-RCR accounts for metastable quantum interactions, partial wavefunction collapses, and emergent recombination effects that mirror decoherence and non-classical transitions. Both models have been mathematically validated and stress-tested across domains including evolutionary biology, AI cognition, network theory, economic systems, and quantum mechanics. The results confirm that the RCR framework replicates key real-world dynamical behaviors while avoiding traditional deterministic constraints. This work suggests that the RCR process—rather than reductionist laws—underlies the persistence and transformation of complex systems, offering a unified model of metastable reality.
