Information-Time Structure Theory (ITST)

Information-Time Structure Theory (ITST) is a receiver-only, information-theoretic framework for interpreting present-accessible signals by comparing:

  • past-origin models, and
  • future-constrained (boundary-conditioned) descriptions

of the same observation stream.

This project does not propose physical time travel, retrocausality, or communication from the future. It provides a structured method for evaluating when observed informational structure is more coherently described by future constraints than by past-only causality.


What This Is

  • A conceptual research framework grounded in information theory
  • A model-comparison approach for temporal asymmetry in noisy time series
  • A receiver-only interpretation of observed signals

What This Is Not

  • Not physical time travel
  • Not retrocausal messaging
  • Not proof of future-origin information
  • Not an experimental claim

Core Idea (Minimal)

Given an observation stream:

x(t) = s(t) + n(t)

we compare two explanatory descriptions:

  • Past-origin model:
    x(t) = s_past(t) + n(t)

  • Future-constrained model:
    x(t) = s_future(t) + n'(t)
    (boundary-conditioned description)

The framework evaluates which description provides greater coherence under model-comparison criteria and temporal-asymmetry indicators.
