New York Incentive Regime

Baseline · Depreciation · Propagation · Drift · Half‑Life#


1. Structural Presence#

The New York incentive regime defines:

  • state‑level incentive baselines
  • New York–specific depreciation envelopes
  • multi‑layer propagation (state → local, state → federal)
  • compliance substrate unique to New York
  • incentive half‑life (IHL‑NY) at the state layer

New York operates under a federal‑aligned but high‑complexity incentive substrate with dense regulatory layering.


2. Incentive Baseline#

New York incentives are shaped by:

  • statutory incentive structures
  • sector‑specific incentive surfaces
  • administrative and regulatory overlays
  • compliance and eligibility rules

Outputs:

  • New York incentive baseline
  • state propagation envelope

3. Depreciation Envelope#

New York depreciation behavior includes:

  • time‑based phase‑outs
  • multi‑tier eligibility decay
  • incentive‑strength reduction
  • envelope boundaries defined by regulatory layering

Modeled via:

  • depreciation_envelope_operator
  • incentive_half_life_operator

4. Propagation Behavior#

New York incentives propagate:

  • downward into counties and municipalities
  • laterally across state programs
  • upward into federal alignment surfaces
  • outward into regional incentive comparisons

Propagation defined by:

  • jurisdiction_propagation_operator
  • New York → federal propagation vectors
  • New York → regional propagation surfaces

5. Drift Characteristics#

New York incentive drift includes:

  • baseline drift
  • regulatory‑driven drift
  • propagation‑induced drift
  • cross‑state drift
  • federal‑alignment drift

Drift modeled via:

  • incentive_drift_operator

Outputs:

  • drift amplitude
  • drift acceleration
  • drift direction

6. Half‑Life (IHL‑NY)#

New York incentive half‑life is shaped by:

  • regulatory complexity
  • drift amplitude
  • propagation load
  • compliance substrate
  • federal‑state alignment

IHL‑NY determines:

  • incentive durability
  • depreciation rate
  • drift susceptibility

7. Alignment Surfaces#

7.1 Federal Alignment#

New York incentives align with:

  • U.S. federal incentive baselines
  • federal depreciation envelopes
  • federal propagation rules

7.2 RRR Alignment#

New York incentives align with:

  • continuity envelopes
  • revenue propagation
  • RRR/1 and RRR/2 layers

7.3 IE Alignment#

New York incentives align with:

  • cycle inversion
  • uplift constraints
  • economic half‑life (EHL)

7.4 GSM Alignment#

New York incentives align with:

  • governance coherence
  • policy propagation
  • civic‑field resonance
