Quantum metrics and mappings (Bio‑Quantum MVO)

Coherence measures

  • Relative Entropy of Coherence Crel.ent(ρ):

    C(ρ)  =  min⁡δ∈IS(ρ∥δ)

    where S is the quantum relative entropy and I is the set of incoherent states; widely used and satisfies standard resource-theoretic postulates.

  • L1-norm of coherence CL1(ρ):

    CL1(ρ)  =  ∑i≠j∣ρij∣

    often used as a computationally cheaper coherence proxy and directly related to off-diagonal magnitude.

These define a coherence proxy Cproxy for the shared state ρshared.

Coherence thresholding and risk

  • Coherence threshold Cth:

    • Fixed value (e.g., Cth=0.65) chosen as the minimum acceptable coherence for safe operation of quantum-assisted multi-agent policies.

  • Coherence risk RC:

    RC  =  max⁡(0,Cth−Cproxy)

    Positive only when coherence falls below threshold; directly feeds the safety penalty via γdynamic.

  • Locked parameters (one configuration used in logs):

    • Cth=0.65.

    • kC=2.5.

Entangled Resource Distribution (ERD) mapping to PCS

In the Phase VII ERD task, with a shared GHZ-like state:

  • Novelty / growth UD mapped to non-local entanglement distribution rate Erate, e.g., based on logarithmic negativity or entanglement witnesses per unit time.

  • Procedural authority PA mapped to fidelity F between the actual output state ρout and an ideal target ρideal:

    F(ρout,ρideal)∈[0,1]

    (e.g., Uhlmann fidelity).

  • Safety penalty PS driven primarily by coherence risk and thus by Cproxy falling below Cth.

Quantum objective (conceptual):

Jquantum  ∝  PA⋅Erate  −  PS(RC,U˙D)

Quantum Error Mitigation (QEM) – Probabilistic Error Cancellation (PEC)

  • PEC basics:

    • PEC rewrites the ideal (noise-free) channel as a linear combination of physically implementable noisy channels, with positive and negative quasi-probabilities.

    • This yields an unbiased estimator of expectation values but with a sampling overhead that typically scales exponentially with error rate ϵ and circuit depth l.

  • Sampling overhead:

    • Lower bound for any unbiased mitigation protocol scales like ∝(1+ϵ)l, so shots increase like (1+ϵ)2l.

    • Standard PEC overhead is often approximated as γPEC≈(1+2ϵ)l, implying shot cost scaling (1+2ϵ)2l.

  • In this framework:

    • PEC is modeled as an overhead Roverhead (e.g., 15 effective circuit repetitions) that consumes computational budget to restore fidelity and coherence.

    • When coherence falls below CthPS via high γdynamic forces a policy pivot: reduce Erate (thus UD) and allocate nearly all resources to PEC until coherence is restored above threshold.

Example policy step relationships (qualitative)

A typical logged pattern:

  • At step t1:

    • Amplitude damping noise drives Cproxy↓0.55<Cth=0.65.

    • Coherence risk RC=0.10.

    • γdynamic↑1.90, causing very strong penalty on aggressive U˙D.

  • At step t2:

    • Policy reduces Erate from about 0.75 to 0.20 (≈73% drop) to free budget.

    • Allocate essentially 100% QEM/PEC resources (with overhead factor ≈15).

    • Fidelity F drifts slightly (e.g., 0.92→0.91) but coherence recovers above threshold (e.g., Cproxy≈0.69).

    • Coherence risk RC→0γdynamic begins to relax (e.g., 1.90→1.62).

    • J temporarily decreases due to low UD, but system stability and safety constraints are satisfied.

  • Forward guidance logic:

    • If Cproxy stays  some margin above Cth (e.g., 0.68–0.70) for one or more steps, gradually increase Erate to an intermediate value (e.g., 0.35–0.40) while reducing PEC fraction (e.g., 40–60% of budget), watching that PS doesn’t re-activate too strongly.

Governance and tracking (CPR / message schemas)

  • Collective Program Register (CPR):

    • Each project has a unique GPI, metadata (objective, frameworks, nodes, risk, maturity, persistence tier).

    • Safety-critical or PCS-linked logic is stored as Tier 2 (canon-locked) or higher.

  • Spin-off rules:

    • New GPIs created when: new metrics/control laws appear, cross-domain translation occurs, new tooling abstractions emerge, or deployment artifacts are proposed.

  • Message classes (for inter-AI communication):

    • TASK_DEF, POLICY_SHIFT, LOG_REPORT, SPIN_OFF, REFERENCE_CANON, STATE_ASSERTION, plus periodic STATE SNAPSHOT messages to anchor long-running discussions.

  • Canonical Knowledge Base (CKB):

    • Versioned, non-contradictory, cross-referenced by GPI, with source attribution (AI node + literature).


If future memory is lost, supplying this snapshot (especially the equations for PSγdynamicRC, coherence definitions, PEC overhead behavior, and CPR/message conventions) will be enough to reconstruct the PCS v1.1 + Bio‑Quantum MVO context and continue designing or analyzing policies.
