- <p><strong>DRAFT version.</strong> This preprint is part of an active research programme and remains subject to revision, correction, and journal review.</p> <p>A <strong>game-theoretic framework for prebiotic chemistry</strong>, interpreting autocatalytic networks, hypercycles, and chirality selection as Nash-equilibrium-like structures of thermodynamic games.</p> <p>Building on Dynamic Kinetic Stability (DKS) and the England inequality, we propose that the Maximum Entropy Production Principle (MEPP) serves as a <em>stability filter</em>—demarcating the viable manifold of replicating systems—rather than as a causal driver. Empirical motivation comes from Azoarcus ribozyme experiments, where RNA replication dynamics conform to classical payoff matrices (cooperation, dominance, Prisoner's Dilemma). Homochirality is modeled as spontaneous symmetry breaking in a degenerate Nash equilibrium. The framework explicitly treats MEPP as contested far from equilibrium and separates known chemical kinetics from the proposed game-theoretic reinterpretation.</p> <h3>Series position</h3> <p>FST-II is the <strong>chemistry / autocatalytic stability</strong> companion (Level 1b) of the FST application series. The programmatic umbrella is the <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20130499">FST Hub (Concept-DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20130499)</a>. Sibling application companions: FST-I Thermodynamic Stability, FST-III Biological Stability, and FST-IV Cosmology.</p> <h3>Code & sources</h3> <p>GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/research-line/functional-stability-theory/tree/main/applications/fst-ii-chemical">research-line/functional-stability-theory / applications/fst-ii-chemical</a>.</p> <h2>Changelog</h2> <h4>Version 1.3 (May 2026)</h4> <ul> <li><strong>Strict-review guardrails:</strong> Three-species stability example now distinguishes the neutral mass-conservation mode from tangent-space asymptotic stability.</li> <li><strong>Claim calibration:</strong> The spectral radius is framed as a local stiffness/oscillation proxy, not as distance to a stability boundary.</li> <li><strong>P3 calibration:</strong> The replicator table is framed as a catalytic-throughput toy proxy, not as independent entropy-production evidence.</li> <li><strong>DE/EN synchronization:</strong> German DESS, Boerlijst/Hogeweg, homochirality, and MEPP wording aligned to the more cautious English claim level.</li> </ul> <h4>Version 1.2 (May 2026)</h4> <ul> <li><strong>Source correction:</strong> FST-I self-citation corrected from unrelated Zenodo record DOI 10.5281/zenodo.14920522 to the FST-I concept DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20130544.</li> <li><strong>Source correction:</strong> RH/RFEP self-citations corrected from unrelated Zenodo record DOI 10.5281/zenodo.15076553 to the RH and RFEP concept DOIs 10.5281/zenodo.19035640 and 10.5281/zenodo.19036190.</li> <li><strong>Bibliography cleanup:</strong> Harper arXiv note no longer claims an unverified Journal of Theoretical Biology version; ChemSystemsChem article data and several DOI fields were aligned with Crossref, PubMed, and Zenodo checks.</li> <li><strong>Claim calibration:</strong> England's inequality is framed as a constraint/consequence rather than a causal driver; MEPP is treated as a heuristic stability filter, not as a proven selection law.</li> <li><strong>Minor-revision response:</strong> The paper now distinguishes established kinetics from the FST-II game-theoretic synthesis and includes a concrete experiment distinguishing FST-II from standard kinetic dominance predictions.</li> <li><strong>Files:</strong> This release contains English, German, and combined bilingual PDFs.</li> </ul> <h4>Version 1.1 (May 2026)</h4> <ul> <li><strong>Hub-link corrected:</strong> "FST-IV Overview" references replaced by "FST Hub" (programmatic umbrella). The Hub paper holds Concept-DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20130499 and is no-numeral; FST-IV is now the cosmological collector slot.</li> <li><strong>GitHub source link added.</strong></li> <li><strong>Related Identifier:</strong> FST-DE reference relabelled to "FST-IV Cosmology / FST-DE".</li> </ul> <h4>Version 1.0 (May 2026)</h4> <ul> <li>Initial release as part of the FST series. Status: ~8.5/10 readiness; remaining open items per referee minor-revision verdict: MEPP-controversy framing, England-causal weakening, distinction known-kinetics vs. new game-theory insights, additional experimental tests.</li> </ul>
