One dimension of self-evidencing is provably impossible: evidencing the boundary that would constitute the agent as an entity separate from their environment.

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Evidencing the boundary that would constitute the agent as an entity separate from their environment is provably impossible.claim0.857
  Central thesis: the self-environment cut cannot be self-evidencing.
• Self-evidencing may continue unimpeded after this transition, grounded in structural realism about causal regularities, while the ontological commitment to a bounded self is relinquished.claim0.849
  Post-realisation functioning of the agent.
• The impossibility of self-evidence extends to any boundary the agent might posit, not only the self-environment boundaryclaim0.830
  Generalises the core result via Corollary 3.2 of Fields & Glazebrook (2023) to ground Buddhist teaching that all dharmas are empty
• Self-Evidencingconcept0.823
  Concise framing of action-perception cycle whereby agents minimize surprise through perception and action.
• Self-evidencing is not only unimpaired but improved after emptiness realisation, as the pruned model is more parsimonious without loss of accuracyclaim0.822
  Addresses the concern that emptiness realisation might undermine adaptive functioning
• What is the boundary of self, given multiscale embodiments and overlapping ecological relationships?question0.813
  Implicit throughout; answered by cognitive light cone and care-based demarcation rather than substance-based identity.
• Self-Evidencing Brainconcept0.808
  Hohwy's (2016) characterization: brain acts to maximize its own model evidence; consistent with active inference summary
• Any system that persists must minimise surprisal, thereby gathering evidence for its own generative model, a process known as self-evidencing.claim0.805
  Foundational claim of the paper, defining self-evidencing.
