The Principle of Non-Conservation of Existential Symmetry: A Cross-Domain Generative Mechanism

This paper proposes the Principle of Non-Conservation of Existential Symmetry (PNCES), asserting that all real existents inherently deviate from their idealized symmetric counterparts, and that this irreducible asymmetry is the generative engine behind phase transitions, structural reconfigurations, and event emergence across domains. We formalize a universal four-stage grammar—differentiation → boundary accumulation → transition → re-emergence—and demonstrate its applicability through three paradigmatic cases: modular/base arithmetic overflow, sonic boom in classical acoustics, and Cherenkov radiation in relativistic electrodynamics. While inspired by parity violation in weak interactions, PNCES transcends physics to offer a metatheoretical framework for understanding why events happen at all. The principle reframes symmetry not as a foundational truth, but as a transient attractor continually ruptured by the act of existence itself.
