  "abstract": "This fourth paper in the Physics–Mathematics Transformation (PMT) research series investigates the conditions under which mathematical descriptions of interacting components can support collective behavior, emergence, and restricted structural unification across physical systems.\n\nThe study develops a claim-dependent methodological procedure based on admissible state spaces, dynamical closure, observable preservation, coarse-graining, information loss, physical realizability, and independent validation. Two illustrative case studies—linear network consensus and nonlinear coupled dynamics—demonstrate both successful collective reductions and failures caused by unresolved microscopic variables.\n\nThe paper distinguishes mathematical structural correspondence from physical identity and emphasizes that shared equations do not, by themselves, establish common physical mechanisms or unification of fundamental interactions.\n\nIts contribution is a consolidated methodology for evaluating candidate mathematical–physical correspondences, rather than a new physical law or a universal theory of emergence.\n\nPhysics–Mathematics Transformation research series — Paper 4.",
