The Informational Curvature–Flux Coupling Law describes how curvature-driven
bending C(x) and flux-driven transport F(x) contribute to a
unified coupled energy that steadily collapses under combined damping.
Curvature–flux interaction energy decays monotonically over time.
This behavior appears naturally in systems where curvature influences stability and flux governs directional imbalance or transport tension.
The experiment uses curvature and flux operators:
E_CF = α‖C‖² + β‖F‖²
with evolution driven by:
A ← A - 0.12 C - 0.06 F
From the uploaded file: :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
curvature(A) = roll(A,-1) - 2A + roll(A,1)
flux(A) = roll(A,-1) - roll(A,1)
coupled_energy = α ΣC² + β ΣF²
A ← A + (-0.12C - 0.06F)
Result: E_CF(t) decreases strictly.
Spectrally, curvature scales like k² and flux like k.
Thus:
E_CF ∼ Σ (k⁴ + k²) |Aₖ|²
The coupled damping operator suppresses high-k modes extremely fast, creating the characteristic monotonic collapse.
Similar coupling appears in beam theory, fluid membranes, and elastic structures exposed to directional transport.
Higher-frequency curvature–flux interactions vanish first, enforcing scale-dependent stabilization.
The coupled operator is equivalent to taking a gradient step on the curvature–flux energy functional.
