Taxes Module — Operators

Incentive‑Regime Substrate · Drift · Propagation · Alignment#

1. Purpose#

This file defines the operator grammar for the Taxes module.
Operators describe how incentives behave across jurisdictions, how drift accumulates, and how half‑lives determine stability.

Operators are grouped into:

• Primary operators
• Drift operators
• Alignment operators
• Cross‑module operators

2. Primary Operators#

2.1 incentive_regime_operator#

Defines the baseline incentive structure for a jurisdiction or regime.
Inputs: incentive parameters, jurisdictional rules
Outputs: incentive baseline, propagation envelope

2.2 depreciation_envelope_operator#

Models depreciation, phase‑out, or diminishing incentive strength over time.
Inputs: incentive baseline, half‑life
Outputs: depreciation curve, envelope boundaries

2.3 jurisdiction_propagation_operator#

Describes how incentives propagate across jurisdictions or layers.
Inputs: baseline incentives, jurisdiction map
Outputs: propagation vectors, cross‑domain flow

2.4 compliance_substrate_operator#

Defines compliance behavior and its effect on incentive stability.
Inputs: compliance parameters
Outputs: compliance‑adjusted incentive envelope

3. Drift Operators#

3.1 incentive_drift_operator#

Models drift accumulation within an incentive regime.
Inputs: incentive baseline, propagation vectors
Outputs: drift amplitude, drift direction

3.2 incentive_half_life_operator#

Defines the half‑life of incentive stability (IHL).
Inputs: incentive parameters, drift amplitude
Outputs: half‑life value, stability envelope

4. Alignment Operators#

4.1 incentive_continuity_alignment_operator#

Aligns incentive regimes with RRR continuity envelopes.
Inputs: incentive baseline, RRR continuity
Outputs: alignment score, stability adjustment

4.2 incentive_cycle_alignment_operator#

Aligns incentives with economic cycles (IE).
Inputs: incentive baseline, cycle phase
Outputs: alignment score, drift correction

5. Cross‑Module Operators#

5.1 taxes_rrr_alignment_operator#

Maps incentive regimes to revenue continuity (RRR).
Outputs: continuity‑incentive alignment surface

5.2 taxes_ie_alignment_operator#

Maps incentives to cycle inversion and uplift constraints (IE).
Outputs: inversion‑incentive alignment surface

5.3 taxes_gsm_alignment_operator#

Maps incentives to governance coherence (GSM).
Outputs: policy‑incentive alignment surface
