This page defines the machine-readable ontology of UTV-Ω.
It expresses the universal thermodynamic vocabulary using
schema.org-compatible JSON-LD structures and formal class relations.
1. Ontology Scope
This ontology describes:
- fundamental state-space entities
- thermodynamic primitives
- stability/attractor classes
- transition and viability structures
- universal operators governing system evolution
No terms requiring semantic agency (goal, meaning, intention) are included.
The ontology is substrate-neutral and mathematically grounded.
2. Core Class Definitions
- State: complete specification of system variables
- StateSpace: set of all admissible states
- Gradient: derivative of potential
- Flux: flow induced by gradient
- Dissipation: irreversible entropy production
- Attractor: invariant convergence set
- Basin: initial states converging to attractor
- Transition: qualitative dynamical shift
- Constraint: boundary on admissible dynamics
3. Operator Classes
- Dissipate: State → State
- MinimizeFreeEnergy: State × Constraint → State
- Converge: State × Attractor → State
- Escape: State × Basin → State
- Stabilize: System → System
- Bifurcate: System → System’
