The Coherence Principle (TCP) A Variational Foundation for the Sympathetic Harmonic Resonance Framework (SHRF)

This preprint introduces the Coherence Principle (TCP), a variational and action-based foundation for the Sympathetic Harmonic Resonance Framework (SHRF). The work formalizes SHRF as a dynamical theory by specifying a single action from which mechanical, gravitational, and cosmological behavior emerge as limiting cases. Within TCP, physical dynamics arise from the evolution of a coherence-bearing field characterized by density and phase. Apparent forces, inertial response, gravitational attraction, and cosmological expansion are not treated as fundamental inputs, but as effective descriptions of how matter and spacetime respond to coherence structure and phase evolution. The paper derives the governing field…
