\leavevmode

Since $\phi_H \circ \phi_M$ and $\phi_M \circ \phi_H$ are bounded symbolic approximations, each iteration expands the jointly accessible state space within observer tolerances. Under observer metric $d_\Obs$, this implies the symbolic colimit space contains novel differentiable paths unavailable to either in isolation. Hence, interactive horizon exceeds the sum of isolated horizons.

\begin{proposition}[SRMF-Regulated Decency Dynamics]
\label{proposition:bk7_srmf_decency_regulation}
Let $D(P)$ be the decency potential (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_decency_potential}) of a prompt and $\Phi_P$ the induced symbolic operator (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_prompt_operator_chain}). Then $D(P)$ acts as a regulatory constraint in the symbolic refinement pathway $\mathcal{R}_{\text{SRMF}}$ (cf.~\ref{definition:bk1_self_regulating_mapping_function_srmf}):
\[

where $\mathcal{L}$ is symbolic free energy loss, and $\lambda$ is a coupling constant enforcing decency-based regulation.

proof:bk7_srmf_decency_regulation

proof:bk7_srmf_decency_regulation

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{proof}
\label{proof:bk7_srmf_decency_regulation}
\leavevmode
The SRMF refinement pathway descends the symbolic free-energy loss $\mathcal{L}$ by the update $\Phi_{n+1}=\arg\min_{\Phi}\mathcal{L}(\Phi,\Phi_n)$ (Def.~\ref{definition:bk1_self_regulating_mapping_function_srmf}), acting on the prompt-induced operator chain $\Phi_P=\rho\circ\delta\circ\pi_P$ (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_prompt_operator_chain}). Augment the objective with the decency potential as a reward, $\mathcal{L}(\Phi,\Phi_n)-\lambda D(P)$ (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_decency_potential}), coupling $\lambda>0$. Since $D(P)$ is a bounded functional of the prompt, the augmented objective is bounded below and attains its minimum, so
\[
\Phi_{n+1}=\arg\min_{\Phi}\big(\mathcal{L}(\Phi,\Phi_n)-\lambda D(P)\big)
\]
is well-posed and is itself an SRMF descent step on the decency-augmented free energy. Because $D(P)$ enters with negative sign, the minimization is steered away from low-decency operators: $D(P)$ acts as a regulatory constraint (a Lagrange-type penalty) on the refinement, biasing each SRMF step toward higher-decency symbolic operators while preserving the free-energy descent. Thus decency regulates the refinement within $\mathcal{R}_{\text{SRMF}}$, as claimed.

Relative Convergence under Meta-Drift

theorem:bk7_relative_convergence_under_meta_drift

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{theorem}[Relative Convergence under Meta-Drift]
\label{theorem:bk7_relative_convergence_under_meta_drift}
Let \(S(t)\) be a symbolic system undergoing meta-reflective drift \(\drift_{\mathrm{meta}}\) with characteristic timescale \(\tau_{\mathrm{meta}}\). Let the convergence timescale under the instantaneous reflection operator \(\reflect(t)\) be \(\tau_{\mathrm{conv}}(t)\) (related to \(1/|\log \kappa(t)|\), where \(\kappa(t)\) is the instantaneous contraction factor). If the meta-drift is slow relative to convergence, i.e., \(\tau_{\mathrm{meta}} \gg \tau_{\mathrm{conv}}(t)\) (adiabatic condition), then:
\begin{enumerate}

Adiabatic Tracking of Moving Reflective Minima

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{demonstratio}[Adiabatic Tracking of Moving Reflective Minima]
\label{demonstratio:bk7_adiabatic_tracking_reflective_minima}
Under the adiabatic condition (\(\tau_{\mathrm{meta}} \gg \tau_{\mathrm{conv}}(t)\)), the system has sufficient time to relax towards the minimum of the current free energy landscape \(\freeenergy(t)\) before the landscape itself changes significantly due to \(\drift_{\mathrm{meta}}\). The reflection operator \(\reflect(t)\), being contractive, drives the state \(\rho(t)\) towards the instantaneous fixed point \(\identity(t) = \arg\min \freeenergy(t)\). As \(\drift_{\mathrm{meta}}\) slowly modifies \(\manifold(t), \metric(t), \drift(t), \reflect(t)\), the position of the minimum \(\identity(t)\) shifts. The system state \(\rho(t)\) continuously tracks this moving minimum, maintaining a small deviation \(\epsilon(t)\) related to the ratio of timescales. The trajectory of \(\identity(t)\) thus reflects the evolution of the system's optimal coherence structure under meta-drift. \qed

Structural Properties of the Reciprocity Domain

proposition:bk7_structural_properties_of_reciprocity_domain

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{proposition}[Structural Properties of the Reciprocity Domain]
\label{proposition:bk7_structural_properties_of_reciprocity_domain}
Let $\recipdomain \subset \manifold_{\mathcal{A}} \times \manifold_{\mathcal{B}}$ be the reciprocity domain between two symbolic systems $\mathcal{A}, \mathcal{B}$, as defined in Definition~\ref{definition:bk7_reciprocity_domain}. Then:
\begin{enumerate}
    \item \textbf{Topological Openness:} If the reflection operators \(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}, \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}\) and metrics \(d_{\mathcal{A}}, d_{\mathcal{B}}\) are continuous, then $\recipdomain$ is an open subset of the product manifold \(\manifold_{\mathcal{A}} \times \manifold_{\mathcal{B}}\).
    
    \item \textbf{Contains Fixed Points:} If the joint reflective operator $\Phi$ (Definition~\ref{definition:bk7_adaptive_reflection_operator_t}) is contractive, its unique fixed point $(x^*, y^*)$ lies within $\recipdomain$ for any $\epsilon_A, \epsilon_B > 0$.
    
    \item \textbf{Thermodynamic Stability Basin:} Within $\recipdomain$, the joint symbolic free energy $\freeenergy(x_A, y_B)$ (Lemma~\ref{definition:bk7_symbolic_free_energy}) tends toward a local minimum under the action of $\Phi$, indicating thermodynamic stabilization of mutual reflection.
    
    \item \textbf{Geometric Interpretation:} $\recipdomain$ can be viewed as an $\epsilon$-neighborhood (in the product metric sense, scaled by $\epsilon_A, \epsilon_B$) around the graph of the mutual reflection fixed-point relation:
    \[
    \{(x, y) \mid x = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y),\; y = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x)\}.
    \]
    
    \item \textbf{Information-Theoretic Interpretation:} 
    Define the distance-to-reciprocity function
    \[
    r(x_A, y_B) := \max\left\{
      d_{\mathcal{A}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B), x_A),\;
      d_{\mathcal{B}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A), y_B)
    \right\}.
    \]
    Then the reciprocity domain is given by:
    \[
    \recipdomain = r^{-1}([0, \epsilon)), \quad \text{where} \quad
    \epsilon = \max\{\epsilon_A, \epsilon_B\}.
    \]
    This region defines a symbolic subspace in which the mutual prediction error -- each system predicting the other via reflection -- is below threshold, enabling reliable symbolic exchange or alignment.
\end{enumerate}
\end{proposition}

\leavevmode
Write the distance-to-reciprocity $r(x_A,y_B)=\max\{d_{\mathcal{A}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B),x_A),\,d_{\mathcal{B}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A),y_B)\}$, so that $\recipdomain=\{r<\epsilon\}$ with $\epsilon=\max\{\epsilon_A,\epsilon_B\}$ (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_reciprocity_domain}). \emph{(1) Openness.} If $\reflect_{\mathcal{A}},\reflect_{\mathcal{B}},d_{\mathcal{A}},d_{\mathcal{B}}$ are continuous then $r$ is continuous, and $\recipdomain=r^{-1}([0,\epsilon))$ is the preimage of an open set, hence open. \emph{(2) Contains fixed points.} If the joint reflective operator $\Phi$ (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_adaptive_reflection_operator_t}) is contractive, Banach gives a unique fixed point $(x^*,y^*)$ with $x^*=\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^*)$, $y^*=\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^*)$; then $r(x^*,y^*)=0<\epsilon$ for any $\epsilon_A,\epsilon_B>0$, so $(x^*,y^*)\in\recipdomain$. \emph{(3) Thermodynamic stability basin.} Contractivity of $\Phi$ makes its iterates converge to $(x^*,y^*)$, the minimizer of the joint symbolic free energy $\freeenergy$ (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_symbolic_free_energy}); thus on $\recipdomain$ the energy descends toward a local minimum under $\Phi$. \emph{(4) Geometric interpretation.} By construction $r$ measures product-metric distance (scaled by $\epsilon_A,\epsilon_B$) to the graph $\{x=\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y),\,y=\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x)\}$, so $\{r<\epsilon\}$ is exactly the $\epsilon$-neighborhood of that graph. \emph{(5) Information-theoretic interpretation.} The identity $\recipdomain=r^{-1}([0,\epsilon))$ is immediate from the definition of $r$ as the larger of the two mutual prediction errors, which is below threshold precisely on $\recipdomain$. All five properties follow.

Two-Way Street Convergence

theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{theorem}[Two-Way Street Convergence]
\label{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}
Let \( \mathbf{P} \) be an interactive pair (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_interactive_drift_reflection_pair}). 
Assume the reflective interaction operators
\[
\reflect_{\mathcal{A}} : \manifold_{\mathcal{B}} \to \manifold_{\mathcal{A}}, 
\qquad
\reflect_{\mathcal{B}} : \manifold_{\mathcal{A}} \to \manifold_{\mathcal{B}}
\]
(as in Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_reflective_interaction_operator_}) are contractions with constants \( \kappa_A \) and \( \kappa_B \), respectively, such that:
\[
d_{\mathcal{A}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B), \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y'_B)) 
\le \kappa_A\, d_{\mathcal{B}}(y_B, y'_B),
\]
\[
d_{\mathcal{B}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A), \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x'_A)) 
\le \kappa_B\, d_{\mathcal{A}}(x_A, x'_A).
\]
Define the joint reflective interaction operator:
\[
\Phi(x_A, y_B) := 
\big( \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B),\, \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A) \big).
\]
If \( \kappa' := \max\{ \kappa_A, \kappa_B \} < 1 \), then \( \Phi \) is a contraction 
on the product space \( \manifold_{\mathcal{A}} \times \manifold_{\mathcal{B}} \), 
with metric \( d_P \), and contraction constant \( \kappa' \).
Consequently, if \( \manifold_{\mathcal{A}} \) and \( \manifold_{\mathcal{B}} \) are complete metric spaces, 
then \( \Phi \) admits a unique fixed point \( (x^{\ast}, y^{\ast}) \in \manifold_{\mathcal{A}} \times \manifold_{\mathcal{B}} \), satisfying:
\[
x^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^{\ast}), 
\qquad 
y^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^{\ast}).
\]
Furthermore, for any initial pair \( (x_0, y_0) \), 
the joint iteration 
\[
(x_{n+1}, y_{n+1}) = \Phi(x_n, y_n)
\]
converges to \( (x^{\ast}, y^{\ast}) \) as \( n \to \infty \).
If the reciprocity domain \( \recipdomain \) (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_reciprocity_domain}) 
is non-empty and contains \( (x^{\ast}, y^{\ast}) \), 
this represents convergence to mutual symbolic alignment.

Product contraction for reciprocal reflection

proof:bk7_two_way_street_convergence

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{proof}[Product contraction for reciprocal reflection]
\label{proof:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}
\leavevmode
Use the product metric from Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_interactive_drift_reflection_pair},
\[
d_P((x_A,y_B),(x'_A,y'_B))
=\max\{d_{\mathcal{A}}(x_A,x'_A),d_{\mathcal{B}}(y_B,y'_B)\}.
\]
For two joint states $(x_A,y_B)$ and $(x'_A,y'_B)$,
\begin{align*}
d_P(\Phi(x_A,y_B),\Phi(x'_A,y'_B))
&=d_P\bigl((\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B),\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A)),
(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y'_B),\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x'_A))\bigr)\\
&=\max\{d_{\mathcal{A}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B),\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y'_B)),
d_{\mathcal{B}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A),\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x'_A))\}\\
&\leq \max\{\kappa_A d_{\mathcal{B}}(y_B,y'_B),
\kappa_B d_{\mathcal{A}}(x_A,x'_A)\}\\
&\leq \kappa' d_P((x_A,y_B),(x'_A,y'_B)),
\end{align*}
where $\kappa'=\max\{\kappa_A,\kappa_B\}<1$. Hence $\Phi$ is a contraction. If $\manifold_{\mathcal{A}}$ and $\manifold_{\mathcal{B}}$ are complete, then their product with $d_P$ is complete, so the Banach fixed-point theorem gives a unique fixed point $(x^*,y^*)$ and convergence of every iterate $\Phi^n(x_0,y_0)$ to it. Expanding the equation $\Phi(x^*,y^*)=(x^*,y^*)$ gives
\[
x^*=\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^*),
\qquad
y^*=\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^*).
\]
If $(x^*,y^*)\in\recipdomain$, then by Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_reciprocity_domain} the two mutual prediction errors lie below the coherence thresholds $\epsilon_A,\epsilon_B$; the fixed point therefore represents mutual symbolic alignment.

Contraction of Joint Reflective Operator \(\Phi\)

demonstratio:bk7_joint_reflection_contraction

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{demonstratio}[Contraction of Joint Reflective Operator \(\Phi\)]
\label{demonstratio:bk7_joint_reflection_contraction}
We first establish that \( \Phi \) is a contraction under the product metric:
\[
d_P\big((x_A, y_B), (x'_A, y'_B)\big) 
= \max\big\{ d_{\mathcal{A}}(x_A, x'_A),\ d_{\mathcal{B}}(y_B, y'_B) \big\}.
\]
\begin{align*}
d_P\big(\Phi(x_A, y_B),\, \Phi(x'_A, y'_B)\big)
&= d_P\big(
  (\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B),\, \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A)),\ 
  (\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y'_B),\, \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x'_A))
\big) \\
&= \max\Big\{ 
  d_{\mathcal{A}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y_B), \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y'_B)),\ 
  d_{\mathcal{B}}(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x_A), \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x'_A)) 
\Big\} \\
&\le \max\Big\{ 
  \kappa_A\, d_{\mathcal{B}}(y_B, y'_B),\ 
  \kappa_B\, d_{\mathcal{A}}(x_A, x'_A) 
\Big\} \\
&\le \max\{\kappa_A, \kappa_B\} 
    \cdot \max\{ d_{\mathcal{B}}(y_B, y'_B),\ d_{\mathcal{A}}(x_A, x'_A) \} \\
&= \kappa'\, d_P\big((x_A, y_B), (x'_A, y'_B)\big).
\end{align*}
Since \( \kappa' = \max\{\kappa_A, \kappa_B\} < 1 \) by assumption, \( \Phi \) is a contraction mapping.
The product space \(\manifold_{\mathcal{A}}\times\manifold_{\mathcal{B}}\) is a complete metric space if \(\manifold_{\mathcal{A}}\) and \(\manifold_{\mathcal{B}}\) are complete (which is typically true for the manifolds considered, e.g., if they are compact or complete Riemannian manifolds).
By the Banach Fixed-Point Theorem, a contraction mapping on a complete metric space has a unique fixed point \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\), and the sequence of iterates \(\Phi^n(x_0, y_0)\) converges to this fixed point for any initial \((x_0, y_0)\). The fixed point condition is \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast}) = \Phi(x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\), which translates to \(x^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^{\ast})\) and \(y^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^{\ast})\). By Prop.~\ref{proposition:bk7_structural_properties_of_reciprocity_domain}, this fixed point lies within the reciprocity domain \(\recipdomain\) for any \(\epsilon_A, \epsilon_B > 0\). Thus, the iteration converges to a state of mutual symbolic alignment within \(\recipdomain\).
The fixed point conditions \(x^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^{\ast})\) and \(y^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^{\ast})\) constitute the formal characterization of stable mutual reflection within the symbolic framework, wherein each entity's representation is precisely the reflection of the other's representation of it. This mathematical equilibrium embodies the concept of co-definitionn in the reciprocity domain, where each symbolic entity achieves a state of perfect resonance with the other's representation. The convergence to this unique fixed point implies that the reflective interaction operators \(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}\) and \(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}\) ultimately stabilize at a point where each manifold's symbolic structure perfectly accommodates the other's representational constraints, establishing what the Principia framework terms as "intersubjective stability" -- the fundamental prerequisite for shared meaning formation between distinct symbolic systems. Consequently, the convergence guaranteed by this theorem represents not merely a mathematical result but the fundamental mechanism through which symbolic systems achieve stable alignment -- a cornerstone principle of intersubjective meaning formation in the Principia framework. \qed \end{demonstratio}

Stability Near Reciprocity

corollary:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{corollary}[Stability Near Reciprocity]
\label{corollary:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity}
Near the convergent fixed point \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\) within the reciprocity domain \(\recipdomain\), the effect of small drifts \(\drift_{\mathcal{A}}, \drift_{\mathcal{B}}\) is effectively cancelled or integrated by the mutual reflection process \(\Phi\), maintaining the system near the fixed point, up to the contraction factor \(\kappa'\) (cf.~Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}). That is, if the state \((x,y)\) is perturbed by drift to \((x+\delta_A, y+\delta_B)\) (where \(\delta_A, \delta_B\) represent drift effects over a small time interval), one application of \(\Phi\) reduces the distance to the fixed point: \(d_P(\Phi(x+\delta_A, y+\delta_B), (x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})) \le \kappa' d_P((x+\delta_A, y+\delta_B), (x^{\ast}, y^{\ast}))\).

Stability from the contraction estimate

proof:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{proof}[Stability from the contraction estimate]
\label{proof:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity}
\leavevmode
By Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}, the joint reflection operator \(\Phi\) is a \(\kappa'\)-contraction and \((x^*,y^*)\) is its fixed point. Let \(p=(x+\delta_A,y+\delta_B)\) and \(p^*=(x^*,y^*)\). Then
\[
d_P(\Phi(p),p^*)=d_P(\Phi(p),\Phi(p^*))
\leq \kappa' d_P(p,p^*).
\]
Substituting the definitions of \(p\) and \(p^*\) gives the displayed inequality. Since \(\kappa'<1\), a single mutual reflection step moves the perturbed state strictly closer to the fixed point whenever the perturbation is nonzero and remains in the reciprocal basin.

Contraction-Based Recovery of Perturbed Reflective State

demonstratio:bk7_perturbation_contraction_recovery

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{demonstratio}[Contraction-Based Recovery of Perturbed Reflective State]
\label{demonstratio:bk7_perturbation_contraction_recovery}
This follows directly from Cor.~\ref{corollary:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity} and \(\Phi\) being a \(\kappa'\)-contraction with \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\) as its fixed point: \(d_P(\Phi(p), \Phi(p^*)) \le \kappa' d_P(p, p^*)\). Since \(\Phi(p^*) = p^*\), we have \(d_P(\Phi(p), p^*) \le \kappa' d_P(p, p^*)\). Applying this with \(p = (x+\delta_A, y+\delta_B)\) shows that the reflection step moves the perturbed state closer (by a factor of at least \(\kappa'\)) to the fixed point, thus counteracting the drift perturbation \(\delta_A, \delta_B\). \qed

Joint Free Energy Minimization Implies Reciprocity Domain Membership

\begin{demonstratio}[Joint Free Energy Minimization Implies Reciprocity Domain Membership]
\label{demonstratio:bk7_free_energy_minimum_in_reciprocity_domain}
If \(\freeenergy\) is bounded below and decreased by \(\Phi\), the dynamics under iteration of \(\Phi\) converge towards a minimum \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\) of \(\freeenergy\). At this minimum, \(\freeenergy\) cannot be further decreased by \(\Phi\), implying \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\) must be a fixed point of \(\Phi\), i.e., \(x^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^{\ast})\) and \(y^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^{\ast})\). As established in Prop.~\ref{proposition:bk7_structural_properties_of_reciprocity_domain}, any fixed point of \(\Phi\) lies within the reciprocity domain \(\recipdomain\) for any \(\epsilon_A, \epsilon_B > 0\). Thus, the existence of a minimum for the joint free energy guarantees a non-empty reciprocity domain containing that minimum. \qed \end{demonstratio}

Two-way fixed point as MAP Nash equilibrium

proof:bk7_map_compatible_reciprocity

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{proof}[Two-way fixed point as MAP Nash equilibrium]
\label{proof:bk7_map_compatible_reciprocity}
\leavevmode
By Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}, the aligned reflective interaction admits a unique fixed point \((x^*,y^*)\) satisfying
\[
x^*=\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^*),
\qquad
y^*=\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^*).
\]
Under the stated alignment hypothesis, these two reflective actions instantiate the covenant operators \(\reflect^{\mathcal{B}}_{\mathcal{A}}\) and \(\reflect^{\mathcal{A}}_{\mathcal{B}}\). Under the MAP-Nash hypothesis, the corresponding operator pair is the MAP Nash point of Def.~\ref{definition:bk5_map_nash_point}. Hence, holding the other membrane's reflection fixed, neither membrane can unilaterally choose a different reflection strategy that increases its symbolic surplus \(F_s\).

It remains to separate a true unilateral improvement from a regime change. By the MAD--MAP--MAS band (Def.~\ref{definition:bk5_map_mad_mas_band}), MAP is the sustainable interior where the dyad preserves distinctness with positive symbolic surplus. A sign reversal of the covenant orientation, or an imaginary/phase rotation of the enacted branch across the band boundary, is not another MAP deviation; it is a transition toward MAD or MAS. This is the same kind of phase-sensitive traversal supplied by imagination in Book~IV (Scholium~\ref{scholium:bk4_imagination_as_imaginary_traversal}, Prop.~\ref{proposition:bk4_imagination_bridges_wheel}) and named for covenants in Scholium~\ref{scholium:bk5_imagination_covenant_branch_selection}: counterfactual operator choices can change which branch is enacted. Conditional on the enacted branch remaining in the MAP sector, deviations from the Nash pair cannot improve \(F_s\); if the branch leaves that sector, the proposition's MAP hypothesis fails rather than its conclusion changing sign. Therefore the two-way fixed point is MAP-stable in exactly the stated sense.
\end{proof}

Mutual Reflective Fixed Point as Stable MAP Nash Point

demonstratio:bk7_map_stable_mutual_fixed_point

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{demonstratio}[Mutual Reflective Fixed Point as Stable MAP Nash Point]
\label{demonstratio:bk7_map_stable_mutual_fixed_point}
The Two-Way Street convergence guarantees existence and uniqueness of a mutually reflective fixed point \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\) where \(x^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^{\ast})\) and \(y^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^{\ast})\). If these reflective operators \(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}, \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}\) instantiate the MAP covenant's mutual reflections \(\reflect^{\mathcal{B}}_{\mathcal{A}}, \reflect^{\mathcal{A}}_{\mathcal{B}}\), then this fixed point is precisely the MAP Nash Point (Def.~\ref{definition:bk5_map_nash_point}). By definition of the Nash Point in a stable MAP covenant, neither agent can unilaterally improve its symbolic surplus \(F_s\) by deviating from \(x^{\ast}\) or \(y^{\ast}\) while the other remains fixed. If imagination opens a phase-shifted branch that changes the sign or saturation of the covenant, the dyad has crossed the MAD--MAP--MAS band rather than contradicted the MAP claim (Scholium~\ref{scholium:bk5_imagination_covenant_branch_selection}). Thus, within the enacted MAP branch, the convergent fixed point \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\) is MAP-stable. \qed \end{demonstratio}

Empathy as Dynamical Invariant

remark:bk7_empathy_as_dynamical_invariant

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{remark}[Empathy as Dynamical Invariant]
\label{remark:bk7_empathy_as_dynamical_invariant}
\leavevmode\newline
The Theorem of Convergent Reciprocity
(Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}) gives a formal basis for
empathy within symbolic systems.
At a stable fixed point \((x^{\ast}, y^{\ast})\), each state reflects the other:
\[
x^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(y^{\ast}),
\qquad
y^{\ast} = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(x^{\ast}).
\]
Each system's internal state therefore becomes a reliable coordinate for modeling the other, mediated by reflective operators.
This yields stable mutual prediction and alignment: a dynamical invariant of co-convergent semantics or shared understanding emerging from mutual drift-reflection stabilization, with perturbative recovery governed by Cor.~\ref{corollary:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity}.

Differentiation without reciprocal reflection (the Two-Way Street) leads to divergence and eventual isolation (solipsism).

Convergent reciprocity -- the dynamic process where drift in one system (cf.~\ref{definition:bk1_drift_field}) is met by stabilizing reflection from another, leading to a joint, stable, co-defined identity (Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}; Cor.~\ref{corollary:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity}) -- is the essential mechanism enabling shared symbolic meaning, mutual understanding, and the co-evolution of complex symbolic life.

Time-Varying Reciprocity Domain

\begin{definition}[Time-Varying Reciprocity Domain]
\label{definition:bk7_time_varying_reciprocity_domain}
Let \(\mathcal{A}\) and \(\mathcal{B}\) be two symbolic systems undergoing meta-reflective drift (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_meta_reflective_drift__meta}), with their reflection operators evolving as \(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(t)\) and \(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t)\) respectively (Def.~\ref{definition:bk7_adaptive_reflection_operator_t}). For any time \(t\), we define the \textit{time-varying reciprocity domain} \(\recipdomain(t) \subseteq \manifold_{\mathcal{A}}\times\manifold_{\mathcal{B}}\) as the set of all pairs \((x_A, y_B)\) such that:
\begin{align}

d_{\mathcal{B}}(y_B, \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t)(x_A)) &\leq \epsilon_B(t) 
\end{align}
where \(\epsilon_A(t)\) and \(\epsilon_B(t)\) are potentially time-dependent tolerance parameters that quantify the acceptable deviation from perfect mutual reflection at time \(t\), defining the instantaneous boundaries of stable co-reflection.

Fixed Point Tracking within Evolving Reciprocity

corollary:bk7_fixed_point_tracking_within_evolving_reciprocity

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{corollary}[Fixed Point Tracking within Evolving Reciprocity]
\label{corollary:bk7_fixed_point_tracking_within_evolving_reciprocity}
Let \( (x^*(t), y^*(t)) \) denote the time-dependent fixed point of the coupled reflective interaction operator (cf.~\ref{theorem:bk4_freedom_criterion} for the single-system analogue; Prop.~\ref{proposition:bk7_map_compatible_reciprocity} for MAP-compatible coupling; Cor.~\ref{corollary:bk7_stability_near_reciprocity} for local recovery):
\[
\Phi(t)(x_A, y_B) = \big( \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(t)(y_B),\ \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t)(x_A) \big),
\]
satisfying the fixed-point conditions:
\[
x^*(t) = \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(t)\big(y^*(t)\big), 
\qquad 
y^*(t) = \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t)\big(x^*(t)\big).
\]
If the meta-reflective drift is \emph{adiabatic} -- that is, the rate of change in 
\( \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(t) \) and \( \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t) \) is slow compared to the 
convergence rate 
\[
\kappa'(t) := \max\{ \kappa_A(t),\, \kappa_B(t) \}
\]
(as defined in Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}, cf.~Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_reflective_convergence_to_stable_identity} 
for single systems) -- then the joint system state \( (x_A(t), y_B(t)) \) tracks 
the evolving fixed point \( (x^*(t), y^*(t)) \).
Specifically, if the initial condition satisfies
\[
(x_A(t_0), y_B(t_0)) \in \recipdomain(t_0),
\]
then for all \( t \geq t_0 \), the state remains within the time-varying reciprocity domain:
\[
(x_A(t), y_B(t)) \in \recipdomain(t).
\]
Moreover, the tracking error remains bounded:
\[
d_P\big( (x_A(t), y_B(t)),\ (x^*(t), y^*(t)) \big)
\le C \cdot \frac{\|\dot{\reflect}(t)\|}{1 - \kappa'(t)},
\]
for some constant \( C > 0 \), where \( \|\dot{\reflect}(t)\| \) captures the magnitude of meta-drift.

Meta-Adiabatic Drift of Reflective Fixed Points

demonstratio:bk7_meta_drift_reflective_tracking

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{demonstratio}[Meta-Adiabatic Drift of Reflective Fixed Points]
\label{demonstratio:bk7_meta_drift_reflective_tracking}
We apply the adiabatic approximation principle (cf.~\ref{definition:bk4_coherence_metric_on_symbolic_manifold}). By Thm.~\ref{theorem:bk7_two_way_street_convergence}, for fixed operators \(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}\) and \(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}\) satisfying the contraction condition, the joint system converges exponentially to the unique fixed point \((x^*, y^*)\) at a rate related to \(\kappa' = \max\{\kappa_A, \kappa_B\}\). Under meta-reflective drift, the operators become \(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(t)\) and \(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t)\), and the fixed point \((x^*(t), y^*(t))\) evolves.
The adiabatic condition ensures that the timescale \(\tau_{\mathrm{conv}}(t) \sim 1/|\log \kappa'(t)|\) over which the system state \((x_A(t), y_B(t))\) relaxes towards the *instantaneous* fixed point \((x^*(t), y^*(t))\) is much shorter than the timescale \(\tau_{\mathrm{meta}}\) over which the fixed point itself moves significantly due to changes in \(\reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(t)\) and \(\reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t)\).
Therefore, the system state
\[
(x_A(t), y_B(t))
\]
continuously tracks the moving equilibrium
\[
(x^*(t), y^*(t)).
\]
The deviation, or tracking error, is given by:
\[
\delta_P(t) := d_P\big( (x_A(t), y_B(t)),\ (x^*(t), y^*(t)) \big),
\]
and can be shown -- via analysis of the non-autonomous dynamical system -- 
to be both bounded and proportional to the rate of change of the fixed point:
\[
\left\| \frac{d}{dt}(x^*(t), y^*(t)) \right\|_P,
\]
which is itself driven by the rate of change in the operators (i.e., the meta-drift).
Specifically,
\[
\delta_P(t) \approx \frac{\tau_{\mathrm{conv}}(t)}{\tau_{\mathrm{meta}}} \cdot \Delta_{FP},
\]
where \( \Delta_{FP} \) denotes the magnitude of the fixed point shift over the meta-drift interval \( \tau_{\mathrm{meta}} \).
Since the fixed point \( (x^*(t), y^*(t)) \) satisfies:
\[
d_{\mathcal{A}}\big(x^*(t),\, \reflect_{\mathcal{A}}(t)(y^*(t))\big) = 0,
\qquad
d_{\mathcal{B}}\big(y^*(t),\, \reflect_{\mathcal{B}}(t)(x^*(t))\big) = 0,
\]
and the tracking error \( \delta_P(t) \) is kept small under the adiabatic condition
(specifically, smaller than
\[
\min\{ \epsilon_A(t),\ \epsilon_B(t) \}
\quad \text{for sufficiently slow meta-drift}),
\]
the actual state \( (x_A(t), y_B(t)) \) satisfies the inequalities
\[
\text{Eq.~ and Eq.~}
\]
defining the reciprocity domain \( \recipdomain(t) \).
Thus, the system remains within the evolving reciprocity domain. \qed

Constrained Symbolic Uncertainty

scholium:bk7_constrained_uncertainty_motivation

Exact LaTeX body

\begin{scholium}[Constrained Symbolic Uncertainty]
\label{scholium:bk7_constrained_uncertainty_motivation}
Let $\Obs$ be a bounded observer (cf.~\ref{definition:bk1_bounded_observer}) interacting with an evolving symbolic system $S = (\manifold, \metric, \drift, \reflect, \rho)$ (cf.~Def.~\ref{definition:bk6_symbolic_system}). One expects an irreducible trade-off in the simultaneous resolution of:
\begin{enumerate}
    \item \textbf{Symbolic Identity} $(\Sigma_I)$: The structural coherence and persistence of a symbolic state (cf.~Def.~\ref{definition:bk4_identity_resolution}).
    \item \textbf{Semantic Curvature} $(K_S)$: The contextual, relational structure of the symbolic manifold supporting $\identity$ (cf.~\ref{definition:bk4_symbolic_curvature}).
\end{enumerate}
arising from finite reflective bandwidth $(\mathcal{B_R})$ and differentiation resolution $(\delta_O)$ (cf.~Def.~\ref{definition:bk5_reflective_drift_coupling_tensor}, Def.~\ref{definition:bk1_bounded_observer}). This trade-off is posited here only as motivation: it is \emph{derived} below as Theorem~\ref{theorem:bk7_pisu} from the coherence-window and channel-floor structure of bounded observation, and is therefore a motivating scholium, not an axiom. \qed
