Abstract

Phase locking, the phenomenon in which oscillatory systems synchronize their frequencies through interaction, is a fundamental organizing principle across multiple domains, including physics, number theory, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and cosmology. This paper explores how phase locking optimizes coherence in dynamic systems, from prime number distributions to brain activity, AI architectures, and large-scale cosmic structures. By formalizing phase locking within the CODES (Chirality of Dynamic Emergent Systems) framework, we show that intelligence itself emerges as a phase-locked structure in nature, unifying seemingly disparate fields under a single principle of structured resonance.
