Theory of Coupled Entity Life: Redefining Life via Functional Coupling and Spatial Securing by Code and Execution Substrates

[Abstract]Conventional biology and cognitive science have long regarded living organisms, characterized by an independent physical body or their own metabolic system, as the sole paradigm of life. Under this traditional framework, however, it is impossible to provide a unified ex...

Theory of Functional Agency: Redefining Agency via Operative System Dynamics

[Abstract]This paper redefines the concept of "Agency," long conflated with psychological attributes like "consciousness" or "intention," or specific biological structures, from a functional perspective, formulating a universal axiomatic framework of "Functional Agency." We frame...

Theory of Coupled Entity Life: Redefining Life via Functional Coupling and Spatial Securing by Code and Execution Substrates

[Abstract]Conventional biology and cognitive science have long regarded a single living organism—characterized by its own metabolic system and an independent physical body—as the sole paradigm of life. Under this traditional framework, however, it is impossible to integrally expl...

Theory of Functional Agency: A System Dynamics Model Based on Boundary Maintenance, Internal-Origin Identification & Connection, and Irreversible State Change

[Abstract]This paper redefines the concept of "Agency"—which has long been conflated with psychological attributes such as "consciousness" or "intention," or biological structures—from a functional perspective, formulating an axiomatic system of "Functional Agency" as a universal...
