Definition R.1As stated in the manuscript — not independently proof-checked beyond the v2 audit

Definition R.1 — Coherent Influence

Formal statement

A signal is said to propagate from region A\mathcal{A} to region B\mathcal{B} if a localized perturbation introduced in A\mathcal{A} produces a reproducible, phase-coherent response in B\mathcal{B} that survives the full horizon-extension and repeatability tests defining robustness.

This definition is purely dynamical and makes no reference to spacetime structure.
