Task-Relative Transition Structure: Accessibility, Ordered Transformations, and Boundary-Contact Scaling

This work develops a task-relative framework for characterizing transitions under admissible transformations. Rather than treating state margin as a sufficient measure of transition robustness, the framework separates task-boundary margin, accessibility, ordered transformation st...

Vanishing Transformation Defects and Decision Reversal in Stochastic Decision Systems

This preprint studies a failure mode in stochastic decision systems in which a transformation defect decreases monotonically toward zero while its decision-relative significance increases and eventually reverses a decision. For a pairwise linear decision functional, the paper sep...
