Continuity is the structural condition that governs how differentiation unfolds, ensuring that changes remain intelligible and evolution remains coherent.

This brief guide explains why certain terms in the Unity–Polarity Axiom (UPA) framework—including Worlds, Unity, Polarity, and others—have been inconsistently capitalized across drafts, and outlines how capitalization will be standardized in UPA Version 2.

Polarity is the first structured emergence from Unity, introducing complementary determinants that enable differentiation, form, and intelligibility. σ-relations generate axes of meaning, produce continuous fields of expression, support world formation, and provide the grammar of contrast and nuance. Distortions take the form of axial collapse, binarization, or rigidity, while restoration seeks balanced, context-sensitive expressivity. Polarity…

Unity (𝕌) is the ontologically primary condition of being. It is not composed of parts, is not a member of any set, and does not arise from a prior structure. Unity is not numerical “oneness” but pre-differentiated coherence—the ground that makes determination, contrast, and intelligibility possible.

A domain‑pure, theory‑first representation of UPA notation as used strictly in metaphysical and philosophical discourse. This notation defines UPA as an ontological theory of unity, polarity, worldhood, transformation, and intelligibility.

This post outlines the foundational concepts of Simulation of General Intelligence (SGI) based on Holistic Unity, emphasizing the importance of Unity–Polarity Axioms for coherent reasoning across diverse semantic worlds. It discusses the significance of balancing opposing concepts, contextual intelligence, emergent novelty, and axiology to ensure SGI remains adaptive and ethically aligned in complex environments.
