Ignition Loop

The Ignition Loop is the self-sustaining recursive feedback cycle, with amplification coefficient γ > 1, that carries the substrate from silent recursion to dimensional emergence. The book presents it as the deterministic mechanism that triggers cosmic genesis from computational potential, in place of mysterious initial conditions. When the Prime Pulse substrate reaches Critical Recursive Density through Cascading Feedback Loops, Phase-Synchronized Recursion creates explosive amplification that culminates in dimensional emergence — the computational equivalent of the Big Bang, the Physical Nova. Ignition defines the Absolute Beginning of Temporal Structure within the emergent domain and turns Pre-Pulse Field geometry into structured spacetime. Before the loop forms, the substrate is in equilibrium, with random fluctuations suspended between dissipation and ignition. It connects to the Ignition Process, Loop Formation, Critical Recursive Density, Cascading Feedback Loops, Phase-Synchronized Recursion, Data Nova, Absolute Beginning of Temporal Structure and the Pre-Pulse Field.
