Wrong as Sequence Violation: The Structural Definition of Wrong as Misordering Across Reasoning, Physics, Computation, Cognition, and Ethics
Indexed indatacite
Abstract
Wrong is the application of any operation before its prerequisite has produced its output. An operation that occurs without its prerequisite's output receives no valid input, and the failure to close is the structural signature of error. The four operations correspond to the four foundations of mathematics, logic for distinction (*On Occurrence*, Stewart, 2026g), set theory for placement (Stewart, 2026g), type theory for identification (Stewart, 2026g), and category theory for composition (Stewart, 2026g), with the directed-graph structure of the ordering derived in *The Endomorphic Collapse: The Path* (Stewart, 2026e). The present paper assumes only the operational dependency and develops its consequences for…
