contents <p>This paper derives Noether’s theorem from the Primitive Bifurcation Law of the Void<br>Dynamics Model (VDM), showing that conservation laws are not independent postulates<br>but necessary consequences of the invariant’s behaviour in directions of zero articulation<br>cost. A symmetry, in VDM terms, is a direction of transformation along which the invariant<br>bears no additional articulation cost to first order. Because the invariant cannot discharge,<br>it must continue articulating — but it need not pay cost in a direction it cannot see. The<br>accumulated articulation burden in that zero-cost direction is therefore conserved: it cannot<br>increase without the invariant paying a cost it has been shown not to pay, and it cannot<br>decrease without discharge. This is Noether’s theorem derived from non-discharge rather<br>than postulated.</p>
