Decoherence as address-resolution shadow
Decoherence is the VM description of address resolution in the boundary algebra. The environment is the collection of boundary characters not in the system subalgebra; tracing over it projects the joint character onto the system's sector component. The diagonal density matrix is

Result summary
Decoherence is the VM description of address resolution in the boundary algebra. The environment is the collection of boundary characters not in the system subalgebra; tracing over it projects the joint character onto the system’s sector component. The diagonal density matrix is the VM representation of the resolved address, not a physical process of information loss.

Claim boundary
This page reports a Registry-backed internal result surface. It is not an external validation claim, a scientific consensus claim, or independent acceptance.
Curation rationale
- physics-facing terms: shadow
- result-facing terms: resolution
- theorem/proposition-class item appears externally legible enough for standalone review
