Abstract
<jats:p>Integrating multi-omics data - transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, single-cell - remains a fundamental challenge in systems biology. We present BioPhasor, a framework that encodes each measurement as a complex phasor z = e^(iφ) on the compact N-torus T^N, modelling the cell as phase-coupled oscillatory programs whose dissipative dynamics generate limit cycles and an attractor landscape. From this geometry we derive the Cell State Tensor (CST), a rank-3 tensor whose axes we root in measured multi-omics quantities: a pathway/module atlas on the regulatory axis and a directional central-dogma modality axis. Across nine scenarios on open public data (GEO, CPTAC), loaded through one unmodified data layer, we report verdicts honestly: four reproduce, three are partial, two do not. A data-driven cell-cycle axis lifts agreement with a reference method from 0.34 to 0.69; an explicit circadian origin cuts peak-time error from 10.6 to 1.4 h; and central-dogma coupling mRNA phase organising protein amplitude clears a surrogate null and is tumour-specific. Grounding the quantum-ready claim, the CST maps to a density-matrix formalism whose coherence and entropy match quantum-information counterparts, and the phasor circuit transpiles gate-for-gate to a variational quantum circuit, though no empirical advantage emerges. One loader regenerates every reported number, and the code is released.</jats:p>
