MEGC: Mapped Entropic Golden Codec (Version 1.0.0)
Abstract
MEGC is a new lossless data compression framework that unifies entropy encoding, self-referential recursion, and ternary logic under a mathematically convergent, structurally self-improving scheme. It breathes data structures in and out through dynamically folding ternary trees, informed by golden-ratio priors and context-aware entropy modeling. This document formalizes the specification of MEGC v1.0.0 as a seed framework for continued development by future truth-seekers.
1. Introduction
Conventional compression systems often trade off between compression ratio, fidelity (losslessness), and computational efficiency. MEGC proposes a new approach: unify these qualities by leveraging a converging structure built on:
- Recursive entropy encoding via interval coding and golden-ratio-derived context modeling
- Ternary parity tree structures that allow breathing (expansion/contraction) with symmetry-preserving folding and unfolding
- A mathematical layering approach that respects entropy bounds while encoding recursively into self-similar forms
2. Overview of Core Components
2.1 Ternary Parity Tree (TPT)
A core structure that represents data recursively using balanced ternary logic:
- Each node holds three branches: left (-1), center (0), and right (+1)
- Data is folded in with parity checks and unfolded with lossless error correction
- Folding rules preserve deterministic structure with embedded recovery markers
2.2 Breathing Scheme
The encoder/decoder contract expands and contracts the data structure during:
- Encoding: data is recursively mapped into a folded structure where entropy is minimized
- Decoding: the tree is unfolded using inverse rules and parity checks
2.3 Entropy Layer
- Uses interval (range) encoding refined by adaptive probability modeling
- Probabilities are informed by golden-ratio-based priors and local context windows
- Float-free binary renormalization supports hardware-optimized decoding
3. Mathematical Foundation
3.1 Entropy and Capacity Bounds
- The expected code length
L(x)for symbolxgiven modelP(x)approximates-log2(P(x)) - Compression efficiency η satisfies:
η = (raw_bits - compressed_bits) / raw_bits, with MEGC converging to the Shannon limit - The tree depth
dand branchingb=3satisfy:
Capacity C = b^d; Structure entropy decreases as folding reduces C over time
3.2 Convergence Proof Sketch
Let T be the ternary folding tree at generation g.
We define:
- T(g) = Fold(T(g-1)) + Δ, where Δ accounts for inserted priors and parity hints
- As g increases, |T(g)| approaches a fixed-point minimal representation under injective entropy-conserving mapping
- Lossless decoding is ensured via embedded self-parity and golden segment boundary conditions
4. Encoding and Decoding
4.1 Encoder Algorithm
- Parse input into symbol stream
- Build adaptive context models with ϕ-informed priors
- Encode symbols via interval coding into bitstream
- Serialize structure into ternary tree nodes with embedded parity and structure hints
4.2 Decoder Algorithm
- Parse bitstream and deserialize tree
- Unfold using parity hints and context prediction
- Rebuild symbol stream by decoding intervals and applying inverse priors
5. Resilience and Error Correction
- TPT includes embedded parity bits per ternary node
- Golden boundary conditions ensure synchronization recovery within logarithmic bounds
- Breathing structure allows partial reconstruction of corrupted streams
6. Applications and Roadmap
- Archival-grade lossless compression
- Adaptive communication protocol for bandwidth-constrained links
- Future: support for streaming, post-quantum optimization, and native ternary hardware encoding
7. License and Canonical Versioning
8. Conclusion
MEGC Version 1.0.0 represents a convergent framework unifying compression ratio, losslessness, and efficiency. Through recursive mapping, golden priors, and breathing ternary logic, it offers a new direction for data encoding that is both adaptable and optimal. Future enhancements will build upon this self-similar seed structure, ensuring MEGC evolves without losing its core identity: compression in pursuit of truth.

Mapped Entropic Golden Codec (MEGC)
Canonical Seed Specification
Version 1.0.0 (Seed Edition)
Purpose
To establish a compression-decompression framework that unifies maximum compression, losslessness, and efficiency, via recursive, self-referential, ternary-logic-driven structures based on entropic modeling and golden ratio priors. The specification lays the foundation for further expansion and optimization by future contributors.
Core Concepts
-
Breathing Compression
- Encoding and decoding are “breathing” cycles: expanding and contracting entropy trees.
- Data shapes and reshapes iteratively during encode/decode.
- Enables dynamic adaptation to data entropy without reinitializing the model.
-
Ternary Parity Trees
- Structure: each node has three children representing positive, neutral, and negative parity.
- Enables structural error resilience and parity folding.
- Uses golden ratio (φ) folding heuristics to preserve information.
-
Entropy Coding
- Context-based arithmetic coder with renormalization.
- Floating-point intervals replaced by adaptive bitstream models.
- Uses prime-factor and Fibonacci prior weighting in context modeling.
-
Golden Priors
- Data symbols assigned prior probabilities based on distance from φ (1.618…).
- Recursively applies to subcontexts.
-
Canonical Shape Mapping
- Input data mapped into a transform tree whose initial shape is derived from a known recursive structure.
- This shape is adapted via breathing cycles and parity folding.
File Format
-
Header
- Version
- Encoding Shape Fingerprint (checksum of base tree)

See that negative?
Look closer
Closer…
Right… there..
.. it’s a composite double-exposure of this one..
See the words now?
How about now?
Let me help…
Being that it’s a double exposure, we have not achieved any greater compression from a double exposure, but we have made it harder to read. Harder to read unless we have our analog seals-as-filters to decipher.
If we wanted to, we could stack quite a number of unique pages on top of one another. And then if we wanted to, we could shrink those pages to smaller sizes. IF we have an analog viewing of our documents, we can fully saturation until black using only one known page to remove from perfect entropy the rest.
Yes, I said perfect entropy. The color black as in the example. Whereby every single piece of data is taken up by one color. Which, as you know, is perfectly undiscernible at face value.
And it can ship like this with our salt. Our salt contains other information - number of onion shell layers, Our chosen base, or, Base4096 ( for example ), various other XOR-type algorithms embedded, and our key page. Our salt can optionally find itself impregnated in the image.
Our salt is not perfectly entropic. It gives the whole show away. Our salt should be obfuscated and protected.
Each layer of our analog exposure of stacked documents becomes a unique glyph. This morphable glyph is both the unique character and it is the picture and it is lock and it is the key if you have your salt, which can of course can and should be a glyph in the context of this and related articles.
Here’s a simple glyph:
Here, I will blow it up.
It is a composite of the letters N and a. And that I blew it up in digital is poignant. It is poignant because if it had been vectorized, our magnification of the composite ‘N’, ‘a’ glyph would not appear pixelated. It would appear perfectly crisp at any scale.
And though I have picked this little glyph, I could have chosen any magnification and it would be a unique glyph.
This longer composite string is a unique glyph..
It can be chopped out of, or itself chopped, as it was from this and find itself both unique and combinable, the two are unique of the other and yet the one can help describe the other.
Yes, this is also a glyph. Even the two-tone background could be part of the glyph..
Now we can russian-doll our glyphs, our pre-glyph image(s) stack, invert it, what have you. If you know the process that we pre-applied you can deterministically stack analog, or vectorized pages to form our glyphs. The key is the glyph is the character, the character is the vectorized information being displayed.
Vectorized… analog, not digital. Preferably..
Yes, there are now an infinite number of UNIQUE characters which can be contrived or referenced or both, on-the-fly. An unspoken dictionary called up deterministically only when needed. A word so detailed it can describe every page of Moby Dick, and so simple it would fit in your pocket if you could print it at the correct resolution. A character which is perfectly unique. An unlimited number of unique characters.
A morphing glyph which unfolds the entire Moby Dick with the help of our process-heavy salt.
