Meaning as a Wave Function: A Formal Isomorphism between Quantum Structure and Prejudgmental Semantics

This paper proposes a formal isomorphism between the structure of meaning-making in Judgemental Philosophy (JP) and the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics. We argue that the Pre-Judgemental Field (PJF)—the field of potential meanings—is structurally equivalent to Hilbert space, and that the state of potential meaning can be described by a 'wave function of meaning' (Ψ(m)) analogous to the quantum wave function (ψ(x)). In this framework, the act of 'judgement' is isomorphic to 'measurement,' and the resulting 'meaning-fixation' is equivalent to the 'collapse of the wave function,' where a superposition of potential meanings resolves into a single, definite actuality. Crucially, this is not a physical claim about quantum processes in the brain, but an inquiry into a shared structural grammar for the transition from potentiality to actuality. Furthermore, we leverage this isomorphism to offer a novel perspective on the measurement problem, proposing that the 'collapse' is driven by the 'Resonance Drive' (RD)—the intrinsic need of a judging subject to overcome Indeterminacy—thus reframing the 'observer' as an active, meaning-seeking participant. This synthesis provides a path toward a unified theory, linking the ontology of physical reality with the epistemology of meaningful experience.
