The Paton System — Structural Architecture Map

The Paton System is a structural admissibility framework designed to evaluate whether systems are permitted to operate before predictive dynamics are applied. Rather than proposing new forces or replacing existing scientific theories, the framework establishes a pre-theoretical architecture that governs structural viability across domains. The system is organised into a tiered hierarchy progressing from foundational structural conditions (Availability, Distinction, Constrained Flow, and Admissibility Gate) through generative machinery and structural laws, and finally into domain instantiations across physics, computation, organisational systems, psychology, and biology. The framework culminates in the Boundary Horizon, which represents the limit where explanatory continuation becomes structurally constrained. This document provides a concise one-page architectural map of the Paton System, intended as a reference overview for repository records, publications, and interdisciplinary readers. It summarises the structural spine of the framework and its domain overlays, enabling consistent interpretation of Paton System papers and associated research outputs.
