Death as Deactualization
Definition
In ODTOE death is deactualization: the observation operator Ô ceases to project configurations, but the world line W = {Ψ*ₙ} persists in H. Dying proceeds through four phases of sequential zeroing of B components — F→0, E→0, Λ→0, σ→1 — leaving a coherent legacy L(O) of artifacts.

Immortality as Coherence
ODTOE's three conditions for observer immortality are: artifact coherence S_A → 1, growing number of heirs n → ∞, and self-consistency with Ψ*. The commandment «love thy neighbour as thyself» is shown to be the unique operator identity that satisfies T(L) → ∞, scaling artifacts from spoken word (hours) to mathematical formula (infinity).
Cognitive Coherence B(O,C)
Cognitive coherence B(O,C) is the central measurable quantity of ODTOE that determines how strongly an observer O actualizes configuration C. It is computed as B(O,C) = F^w1 · E^w2 · (1−σ)^w3 · Λ^w4, where F is attention focus (fidelity), E is energy, σ is internal contradiction (entropy), and Λ is data quality.
Observer (ODTOE)
In ODTOE an observer is any object parametrized by the triad (B, A, H) — cognitive coherence, attention/action and history — capable of applying an observation operator Ô. Observers range from quarks (d<0) and atoms (d=0) to cells, humans and collective clusters.
