GF(3) Tripartite Orchestration

A skill for coordinating multi-agent systems using GF(3) (Galois Field of 3 elements) conservation. Implements the core pattern: local choice χ ∈ {-1, 0, +1} determines all state transitions.

Description

This skill enables agents to:

Assign trit values (-1, 0, +1) to operations and entities
Verify GF(3) conservation: Σχ ≡ 0 (mod 3)
Coordinate triadic agent compositions
Map operations to deterministic colors via Gay.jl

Usage

Trit Assignment

When orchestrating multiple agents or operations, assign trits:

Trit	Role	Semantics
+1 (PLUS)	Generator	Create, advance, produce
0 (ERGODIC)	Transformer	Process, maintain, equilibrate
-1 (MINUS)	Absorber	Consume, validate, verify

Conservation Check

For any triplet of operations to compose correctly:

trit(A) + trit(B) + trit(C) ≡ 0 (mod 3)

Valid triplets:

(+1, +1, +1) → 3 ≡ 0 ✓
(+1, 0, -1) → 0 ≡ 0 ✓
(+1, -1, 0) → 0 ≡ 0 ✓
(0, 0, 0) → 0 ≡ 0 ✓
(-1, -1, +1) → -1 ≡ 0? → -1 + 3 = 2 ✗ (invalid!)

Example: ALIFE Structural Diffing

Three orthogonal vectors for change:

Vector	Type	Trit	Description
α	Behavioral/State	0 (ERGODIC)	Time evolution within fixed ontology
β	Structural/Type	+1 (PLUS)	Mutation of code, morphology, parameters
γ	Bridge/Coherence	-1 (MINUS)	Meta-layer mapping structure to function

Sum: α(0) + β(+1) + γ(-1) = 0 ✓

Applications

Multi-Agent Coordination

Agent A (Explorer, +1)    - generates new possibilities
Agent B (Processor, 0)    - transforms and routes
Agent C (Validator, -1)   - verifies and absorbs

Σ = +1 + 0 + (-1) = 0 ✓

World-Hopping (Counterfactual Navigation)

World-Hopping (+1)        - explore parallel worlds
Triad-Interleave (0)      - weave between possibilities
Epistemic-Arbitrage (-1)  - exploit knowledge differentials

Σ = 0 ✓

Categorical Rewriting

DisCoPy-Monoidal (+1)     - compose diagrams
Categorical-Rewriting (0) - apply DPO/SPO rules
Graph-Grafting (-1)       - attach/detach subgraphs

Σ = 0 ✓

Color Mapping

Each trit maps to a deterministic color via Gay.jl:

Trit	Index	Hex (seed=69)
+1	1	#301ADC
0	2	#7330AD
-1	3	#D192DD

For GF(3)² (9 colors), use indices 0-8:

(0,0)=#301ADC  (0,+)=#7330AD  (0,-)=#D192DD
(+,0)=#D9DE86  (+,+)=#DD77D4  (+,-)=#E1798E
(-,0)=#A80EA2  (-,+)=#EB39A7  (-,-)=#A724AB

Cat# Integration

This skill maps to Cat# = Comod(P) as a bicomodule in the equipment structure:

Trit: 0 (ERGODIC)
Home: Prof
Poly Op: ⊗
Kan Role: Adj
Color: #26D826

GF(3) Naturality

The skill participates in triads satisfying:

(-1) + (0) + (+1) ≡ 0 (mod 3)

This ensures compositional coherence in the Cat# equipment structure.
