+# Cryptobiosis Theory — Phase-Transition Survival
+
+## Biological basis
+
+Tardigrades survive lethal conditions (vacuum, radiation, -272°C, 150°C)
+not by resisting them but by **exiting the space where the threat applies**:
+vitrifying into a tun state where metabolism drops to zero.
+
+Key properties:
+- **O(1) transition**: vitrification is a phase transition, not a gradual process
+- **Zero metabolism in dormant state**: not "reduced" — zero
+- **Snapshot recovery**: the tun contains all information needed to resume
+- **Staged rehydration**: recovery is cautious, multi-phase, abortable
+- **Hysteresis**: exit threshold < entry threshold (prevents oscillation)
+
+## GeoSync implementation
+
+State machine: ACTIVE → VITRIFYING → DORMANT → REHYDRATING → ACTIVE
+
+Combined neuromodulator distress T ∈ [0, 1]:
+    T = 1 - GVS_score (where GVS = Gradient Vital Signs)
+
+When T ≥ entry_threshold (default 0.85):
+- System vitrifies in ONE tick (O(1))
+- Position multiplier drops to EXACTLY 0.0
+- Snapshot is captured for recovery
+
+When T < exit_threshold (default 0.60):
+- Rehydration begins (staged ramp-up)
+- If T ≥ entry during rehydration → abort back to DORMANT
+
+## Why this matters for trading
+
+Traditional risk management: "reduce position by X% when vol > Y."
+This RESISTS the threat — still in the space, still losing money slower.
+
+Cryptobiosis: "exit ALL positions when gradient collapses."
+This EXITS the space — zero exposure, zero P&L, wait for recovery.
+
+The key insight: the cost of being in DORMANT during a false alarm
+(missed opportunity) is bounded and recoverable. The cost of being
+ACTIVE during a true crisis (unbounded loss) is not.
+
+DORMANT multiplier = 0.0 EXACTLY is a SAFETY INVARIANT (INV-CB1).
+Not 0.001. Not "close to zero." Zero. Because a discharged gradient
+computing its own disappearance is worse than zero.
+
+## Connection to Gradient Ontology (CLAUDE.md Section 0)
+
+Layer 3 of the maintenance hierarchy: Gradient Preserved.
+When Layers 0-2 fail (gradient gone, Lyapunov diverging, GABA saturated),
+Layer 3 fires: exit the space entirely.
+
+## Invariants
+
+| ID | Statement | Priority |
+|----|-----------|----------|
+| INV-CB1 | DORMANT ⟹ multiplier == 0.0 EXACTLY | P0 |
+| INV-CB2 | Vitrification O(1) — one tick | P0 |
+| INV-CB3 | Snapshot non-None in DORMANT | P1 |
+| INV-CB4 | Rehydration stages non-decreasing | P0 |
+| INV-CB5 | Entry > individual module thresholds | P1 |
+| INV-CB6 | T ∈ [0, 1] | P0 |
+| INV-CB7 | exit < entry (hysteresis) | P0 |
+| INV-CB8 | T ≥ entry during rehydration → DORMANT | P0 |

+# Lyapunov Exponent Theory — Chaos/Order Detection for GeoSync
+
+## Core concept
+
+The Maximal Lyapunov Exponent (MLE) measures the average rate of exponential
+divergence of nearby trajectories in phase space:
+
+    λ_max = lim_{t→∞} (1/t) · ln(|δx(t)| / |δx(0)|)
+
+For a scalar time series (e.g. Kuramoto R(t), portfolio returns):
+- **λ > 0** → chaotic / unpredictable (nearby trajectories diverge)
+- **λ ≈ 0** → marginal / edge-of-chaos (critical transition zone)
+- **λ < 0** → stable / predictable (nearby trajectories converge)
+
+## Algorithm: Rosenstein (1993)
+
+1. Delay-embed scalar series: x_i → (x_i, x_{i+τ}, ..., x_{i+(m-1)τ})
+2. For each embedded point, find nearest neighbor (excluding temporal vicinity)
+3. Track log-divergence of neighbor pairs over time
+4. λ_max = slope of mean(ln(divergence)) vs time (initial linear region)
+
+Key parameters:
+- **dim** (embedding dimension): 2 for 1D maps, 3-5 for continuous systems
+- **tau** (delay): first minimum of mutual information, or 1 for discrete maps
+- **max_divergence_steps**: shorter = captures initial exponential growth better
+
+## Calibration results
+
+| System | Theoretical λ | GeoSync MLE | Accuracy |
+|--------|--------------|-------------|----------|
+| Logistic map r=4 | ln(2) = 0.693 | 0.689 | 99.5% |
+| White noise | 0 | 0.001 | — |
+| Damped oscillator | < 0 | -0.006 | correct sign |
+| Kuramoto R(t) subcritical | > 0 (noisy) | 0.222 | correct sign |
+| Kuramoto R(t) supercritical | < subcritical | < subcritical | correct ordering |
+
+## Connection to GeoSync modules
+
+- **R(t) → MLE**: tells you if synchronization dynamics are predictable
+- **MLE → Kelly**: λ < 0 → higher conviction → larger fraction
+- **MLE → Cryptobiosis**: extreme positive MLE → gradient turbulent → consider DORMANT
+- **MLE → GVS**: feeds chaos_health component (|λ| < 0.5 = healthy)
+
+## Invariants
+
+- INV-LE1: MLE finite for any finite bounded input
+- INV-LE2: MLE sign matches dynamical regime (noise ≈ 0, stable < 0, chaos > 0)
