Minimal Reidentification Structure Theory (MRST) MRST is a framework that derives identity, order, and irreversibility from minimal constraints required for reidentification in branching generative processes. Time, identity, and evaluation are not primitive but are uniquely forced by the minimal conditions of reidentification. Reidentification arises as the minimal stabilization required when distinctions cannot be persistently maintained in branching processes. Core claims: (1) Reidentification is not assumed but forced by the minimal requirement of stabilization under branching (2) Time is uniquely determined as the minimal transitive closu…
