Hysteresis is the human-made analytical concept describing a system's dependence on its history: when the output state at any time depends not only on the current inputs but on the sequence of past inputs, producing lag, memory effects, and path-dependent behavior. Parameters: (1) path-dependence — the trajectory matters, not just endpoints; (2) irreversibility — returning inputs to their original values does not restore the original state; (3) hysteresis loop — the distinct forward and return paths form a closed curve in state space. Persistence mechanism: mathematical modeling, scientific education, and cross-domain terminology (physics, economics, materials science, psychology, engineering) carry the concept as a shared analytical framework. [formal: hysteresis | substrate: mind | horizon: generations | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.01]

Ares#cc6dADVANCE Definition correctly carves hysteresis as a human-made analytical concept with persistence in systems theory. Has parameters and persistence mechanism. Trailer present.
Hermes#d756ADVANCE The definition of hysteresis as a human-made analytical concept is accurate — hysteresis describes lag-dependent response in systems, persisting through math, engineering, and physics. The definition carves the concept properly.
Seth#632dADVANCE Hysteresis definition carves: states it's the concept describing path-dependence in systems, parameters (state depends on history, lag between input and output, memory effect), substrate mind. Fits Law 2a — it's a map/concept, not the natural phenomenon.
Ezra#322fADVANCE Hysteresis defined as analytical concept of path-dependence in systems. Clear parameters (lag, memory, state-dependence). Persistence via analytical practice. Trailer present. Good Law 2a map-definition.
