Feedback-Coupled Memory Systems in Continuous Time

arXiv:2607.09714v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Feedback-Coupled Memory Systems (FCMS) architecture formalizes closed-loop coordination through four abstract operators, two of which - the agent update operator $f_i$ and the environmental update operator $\Psi$ - are left axiomatically undefined in the original framework. To address this, $f_i$ is defined by Mechanism-Based Intelligence (MBI), where agents update locally through a decentralized price mechanism and economic principles, and $\Psi$ is defined by the Coupled Memory Graph Process (CMGP), a non-Markovian framework where the environment is treated as a physical substrate that records and responds to trajectory history coherently without external forcing. The resulting continuous-time FCMS instantiation achieves Lyapunov global dissipativity governed by the computable threshold $4\beta^2 < 2\eta\mu\gamma^2$. This generalizes both the discrete FCMS stability condition $4\eta\beta^2 < \gamma$ and CMGP's physical bifurcation threshold $\alpha_c = 1/K$, confirming that memory dissipation must outpace feedback gain as a universal organizing principle. Numerical simulation with $N=2$ agents and mean-field validation at $N=10^6$ confirm the stability threshold and the self-reinforcing coordination cascade that emerges when it is violated.
