Is Semantics Physical?!

TL;DR

This paper proposes that semantics can be understood as a physical property emerging from bounded physical processes, establishing a hierarchical structure influenced by non-local feedback and physical agents.

Contribution

It introduces a novel framework linking semantics to physical processes under boundedness, with a hierarchical organization supported by matter wave emissions.

Findings

Semantic structures exhibit non-extensivity and permutation sensitivity.

Semantic units are represented both as letter sequences and physical engine performances.

Hierarchical semantic organization is maintained by non-local feedback mechanisms.

Abstract

It is demonstrated that under the hypothesis of boundedness, the semantics appears as a property of spontaneous physical processes. It turns that both semantic structure and semantic meaning have their own physical agents each of which is represented trough generic for the state space property. The boundedness sets an exclusive two-fold representation of a semantic unit: as a specific sequence of letters and as a performance of a specific engine so that their interplay serves as grounds for building a multi-layer hierarchy of semantic structures. It is established that in this setting the semantics admits both non-extensivity, permutation sensitivity and Zipf`s law. The robustness of the hierarchical organization of semantic structures is maintained by new generic form of non-local feedback that appears as a result of the necessary for sustaining boundeness matter wave emitting.
