We develop a formal mathematical model of Arabic non concatenative morphology in which lexical meaning is determined by the interaction between an invariant root and a morphosyntactic pattern. Within this framework, we establish a Morphological Correspondence Theorem, demonstrating that every lexical item is uniquely generated by a root pattern pair, and a Semantic Localization Theorem, proving that lexical meaning is determined at the derivational level prior to surface realization. To address Saussurean weaker notion of relative arbitrariness, we formalize it via conditional Kolmogorov complexity, defining arbitrariness algorithmically as the no rule property. We prove that general relative arbitrariness is formally undecidable, while Arabic relative arbitrariness is decidable and provably less than 1 for its motivated signifiers (Levels W and M), establishing a strict system complexity asymmetry over Indo-European languages.
