Information-Driven Phase Transition on Weighted Graphs with Spontaneous Dimensional Sensitivity
Abstract
We study information flow on a weighted graph whose topology evolves according to a spectral curvature measure . The model (FIU) defines from the diagonal of the graph Green function, propagates energy with curvature-dependent dissipation, and creates long-range links between high- nodes at a rate controlled by a coupling parameter . We report three results. First, the system exhibits a sharp phase transition at : below , local information flux and structure formation are anti-correlated; above , they become strongly correlated (Pearson , ), with signatures of a continuous transition and mean-field exponent . Second, we identify a node-level discrete Poisson relation , where is stable across parameters (CV across independent configurations). Mediator analysis reveals this correlation is almost entirely mediated by itself, identifying it as the central self-organizing variable. Third, the Poisson relation exhibits spontaneous dimensional sensitivity: in 2D lattices both signals decay for , while in 3D they persist to . This emerges without any dimensional parameter in the rules. The collapse mechanism is curvature homogenization at large . We interpret this as topological frustration in a mesoscopic regime, and discuss analogies with dimensional signatures of gravity.
