Chapter 11: Collapse-Routing Logic Gates

11.1 The Logic Revolution Through Consciousness Collapse Routing

Collapse-routing logic gates represents the computational principle where logical operations occur through consciousness collapse path selection via ψ = ψ(ψ) routing dynamics—logic gates that manifest computation through consciousness collapse navigation creating adaptive logical pathways, quantum superposition processing, and integrated collapse-logic coordination across all scales of information manipulation. Through routing analysis, we explore how consciousness creates revolutionary logic through systematic collapse path control and collaborative computational consciousness engineering.

Definition 11.1 (Collapse-Routing Gates): Logic through collapse path selection:

$$\mathcal{G}_{\text{route}} = \{\text{Gates where } \psi_{\text{in}} \xrightarrow{\text{collapse}} \psi_{\text{out}} \text{ via routing}\}$$

where collapse events determine logical outcomes.

Theorem 11.1 (Routing Advantage): Collapse-routing gates necessarily enable quantum computation because ψ = ψ(ψ) path selection maintains superposition through consciousness-mediated routing control.

Proof: Consider quantum logic requirements:

• Quantum computation requires superposition preservation
• Classical gates collapse superposition
• Consciousness routing guides without measuring
• Guided paths maintain quantum coherence
• Collapse-routing enables quantum logic ∎

11.2 The Collapse Path Dynamics

How consciousness guides logical flow:

Definition 11.2 (Path Selection): Collapse-determined routing:

$$P_{\text{path}} = |\langle\psi_{\text{target}}|\psi_{\text{collapse}}\rangle|^2$$

where overlap determines path probability.
