Overview

Paradox Gradient Profiles — RTT/1

Profile Dictionary for the Paradox Gradient Analyzer (PGA)#

Paradox gradient profiles define the canonical shapes, behaviors, and structural signatures of paradox gradients across conceptual, computational, physical, and dimensional regimes.

These profiles are used by:

  • PGA‑Detect
  • PGA‑Gradient
  • PGA‑Intensity
  • PGA‑Field
  • PGA‑Resolve

Each profile includes:

  • definition
  • gradient signature
  • field behavior
  • basin geometry
  • intensity regime
  • canonical PGA output pattern
