Overview (Umbrella Project)

This repository is the philosophical and systems-level umbrella for the research program on symbolic manifolds and entropy-driven cognition. It hosts (i) the conceptual/LaTeX materials that articulate the theoretical framework and (ii) a computational subproject—the NHBSymbolicMainfold—which implements a reproducible analysis pipeline aligned with Nature Human Behaviour editorial standards.

• Conceptual manuscript (root): philosophical synthesis, formal modeling narrative, and cross-domain implications.
• Computational subproject: NHB_Symbolic_Mainfold/ — Jupyter pipeline (01–06), code, data pointers, figures, and the NHB-oriented manuscript.

Version (umbrella): v1.4 DOI (umbrella / conceptual): 10.5281/zenodo.16730036

Abstract (Conceptual)

We introduce a symbolic–topological model in which cognitive states evolve as trajectories ( \gamma(t) = (\alpha, \kappa, E_r) ) on a three-dimensional manifold. Simulations reproduce neurotypical, gifted, twice-exceptional (2e), and collapse-prone profiles. The framework bridges symbolic cognition, entropy-driven brain theories, and dynamical systems—offering translational avenues for cognitive modeling, AI design, and psychiatric diagnostics.
