Glossary

This glossary defines the canonical terminology used across the RFT-SIRM research and engineering ecosystem. Where a project has a more specific local definition, that definition must not contradict the core names below.

Core identity

Term Canonical definition
SIRM Synthetic Intelligence Reasoning Model — Russian: Синтетическая интеллектуальная модель рассуждений. The name of the invariant-driven reasoning and systems model used in this ecosystem. Do not expand SIRM as “Scalar Invariant Resource Model” or another alternative.
RFT Resonant Field Theory — Russian: резонансная теория поля. This is the canonical expansion of RFT. Do not use “Reality Fractal Theory” as an expansion of RFT.
RFT-SIRM The project/ecosystem identifier combining Resonant Field Theory (RFT) and the Synthetic Intelligence Reasoning Model (SIRM). Keep the two names distinct: RFT names the theory; SIRM names the model.
UltraCore-RFT The documentation and coordination hub for the research, systems-engineering, and application programmes in this repository.
CoreState The central state structure containing global_field, total_base_sum, total_supply, and participant accounts.
global_field A shared scalar shift applied to participants' effective balances in the implementation's accounting model. This is a software variable, not by itself a claim about a physical field.
base_balance An individual participant's base balance before applying global_field.
effective_balance base_balance + global_field; the participant's effective balance under the model's conventions.
total_base_sum Sum of all individual base_balance values.
total_supply Total economic supply in the system; the implementation specifies its relation to minted and burned amounts.
p Participant count: number of active accounts represented in CoreState.
dust_accumulator Rounding remainder from division operations; its exact bound and sign convention are defined by the implementation invariant.
edge_cost Directed transfer cost or adjustment; the meaning of positive and negative values is implementation-specific and must be stated where used.
NEG_E A named negative-entropy adjustment in the implementation. Any numerical scaling is defined by the source code and specification.
redistribute An operation that updates global_field so a shared adjustment can be reflected in effective balances without eagerly rewriting every participant balance.
check_invariant Function that checks the runtime invariants after a state mutation.
Rift Token SPL-token interface that reads CoreState without directly writing to it, as specified by the relevant implementation.
rift_multiplier Cached conversion factor between SOL and Rift shares in the relevant implementation.

Runtime terminology

Term Definition
CPI Cross-Program Invocation; Solana mechanism for calling other programs.
PDA Program Derived Address; deterministic account address derived from seeds.
libFuzzer Coverage-guided fuzz testing engine used for invariant verification.
Memory Contexts Per-CPI-frame permission-isolation layer investigated in the Agave SVM research.
Scheduler Conflict-aware transaction-ordering component.
hotspot Account heat score tracking write contention.
deferred queue Queue for transactions blocked by conflicts.
generation Monotonic counter representing scheduling passes.

Research terminology

Term Definition
RFT Resonant Field Theory. Use this exact expansion consistently.
SIRM Synthetic Intelligence Reasoning Model (Синтетическая интеллектуальная модель рассуждений). Use this exact expansion consistently.
O(1) distribution A constant-time shared-scalar update in the specified balance representation; it does not mean every runtime operation is O(1).
deterministic invariant A mathematical or logical constraint that the implementation checks or enforces after a state transition.
upstream contribution Bug fix or RFC submitted to an external project (e.g., Anza/Agave).
fuzz harness Test framework that generates inputs or state sequences and checks specified invariants.
regression test Test designed to prevent a previously fixed bug from recurring.
model field / scalar field A variable or mathematical quantity defined by a particular model. Do not imply that a software variable is a physical field without a separate physical definition and evidence.
Reality Fractal Theory Not the expansion of RFT in this project. Do not use it as a synonym for Resonant Field Theory.
