Time as Irreversible Distinction Update

Yining Wu · 2026-05-16

Defines usable temporal order for bounded observers as causally ordered irreversible finite-record update. Introduces temporal capacity, non-injectivity loss, synchronization bottlenecks, latency-induced order inversion, dissipative projection, and register-time collapse in finite-window systems.
