Operator Algebra of Institutional Alignment

Mission-Cycle Functions

M

Definition

The space of cycle functions representing the ideal temporal cadence intrinsic to institutional purpose. Mission cycles specify the period, phase, and amplitude required for capability regeneration—determined by physics, biology, or social necessity rather than finance.

Example

For hospitals, M includes 5-7 year equipment renewal cycles. For climate adaptation, M includes 10-15 year infrastructure replacement windows. For science, M includes 2-5 year discovery throughput cycles.
