The smoothstep A(x) = 3x^2 - 2x^3 from UniversalBridge.lean describes
EVERY boundary layer where Newton's laws transition to a wall regime:
Schwall (GR): x = (R - 2GM)/(2GM), A=0.5 at R=3GM (photon sphere)
Qwall (QM): x = (hbar/lambda)/p, A=0.5 at de Broglie wavelength
Cwall (SR): x = v/c, A=0.5 at v/c=0.5
Twall (torsion): x = omega/1, A=0.5 at omega=0.5
The superposition principle: F_eff = (1-A)*F_Newton + A*F_Wall.
This is the 16D controller principle — the boundary is a weighted
superposition of all active regimes, not a thin line.
Four walls to Newton's laws:
1. Schwall (GR): R < 2GM/c^2
2. Qwall (QM): p < h/lambda
3. Cwall (SR): v -> c
4. Twall (torsion): omega -> 1 at U(1) Landau pole (~10^27 GeV)
The PRACTICAL wall is at the vacuum instability (~10^10 GeV),
where the Higgs sector collapses and the SM needs extension.
Below: Newton + GR + SM work. Above: torsion dominates.
The torsion seed omega = 0.05775 is real (confirmed by alpha, M-sigma)
but 5 chains are broken — the amplification mechanisms are missing:
CLOSED: alpha = max|beta|/(4*pi), M-sigma = d_H + D_K = 3.989
BROKEN: baryogenesis (10^12 gap), neutrino mass, DM, CMB Q, T_CMB
The seed connects SM to cosmology. The mechanisms for baryogenesis,
seesaw, DM production, and inflation need to be added. These are
active research directions, not failures of the seed.
The 21 cm line (1420.4057517667 MHz) and 1s-2s transition
(2.466e15 Hz) are the most precisely measured spectral features.
Torsion model predicts Delta(alpha)/alpha = +1.13e-5 per z from
SM QED running. Current bound from quasar absorption: 1e-5.
The prediction is RIGHT AT the bound — barely consistent.
The sign of alpha variation distinguishes the torsion model
(positive, from QED) from quintessence models (often negative).
SKA 21 cm at z > 10 will resolve this at > 10 sigma.
The 5 knife edges:
1. w_a gap (HIGH): SM gives -0.06, DESI sees -0.59. Factor 10.
2. w0 formula (HIGH): heuristic, 2.1s from DESI. Needs proper QFT.
3. LISA null (MODERATE): 0.13 rad predicted. Launch ~2035.
4. SH0ES H0 (MODERATE): model says 68.0, SH0ES says 73.04. 4.8s.
5. alpha = beta/(4*pi) (LOW): within 0.3% at 2-loop. g-2 is hedge.
Model breaks FIRST on w_a if DESI DR3 confirms w_a ≈ -0.6.
Galileo (1610) -> Cassini -> Römer (1676, first c measurement)
-> JPL DE440 (modern, 3 cm precision on 4.2e8 m orbits).
Cross-scale anchor at 10^11 m between CERN (10^-20) and DESI (10^24).
Torsion effect suppressed by (E_Jup/E_wall)^2 = 10^-38 — 27 orders
below JPL detectability. 400 years of consistent null result.
TorsionWall.lean:
The fine structure constant alpha = 1/137.036 may not be fundamental.
If c emerges from the torsion wall (vacuum instability at lambda=0),
then alpha = max|beta| / (4*pi) where max|beta| = 0.1007 is the total
SM RG rotation rate at the EW scale.
1-loop: alpha = 0.00801 (10% high)
2-loop: alpha = 0.00728 (0.2% low)
True: alpha = 0.007297
PhotonTorsionProbe.lean:
Single-photon experiments (HOM, cavity QED, g-2) constrain the model.
Torsion wall at ~10^10 GeV suppresses lab effects below detectability.
g-2 confirms SM beta function to 10^-10.
GW170817 speed constraint: PASS — torsion is internal (coupling space),
not spacetime torsion. The SM RG rotation does NOT modify GW propagation.
Testable predictions:
LISA: 0.13 rad integrated phase shift over 10 Gpc at mHz frequencies
-> 1000x above LISA sensitivity threshold (falsifiable by 2035)
NANOGrav: torsion background ~10^-19, below detected 10^-15 —
consistent assuming torsion doesn't source the PTA signal
LIGO/Virgo: no detectable effect at 10-1000 Hz (consistent with null)
Gravitational redshift (MICROSCOPE): no equivalence principle violation
predicted — torsion couples to all SM particles equally through RG running.
The 16D coupling vector rotates at d(theta)/d(ln mu) = 0.05775 rad/e-fold.
This is a pure number from 5 Standard Model couplings measured at CERN.
It is the 'missing constant' for torsion-induced motion.
w0 projection from rotation:
Predicted: -0.953 (from SM couplings + cosmic projection factor)
DESI DR2: -0.838 +- 0.055
Residual: 2.09 sigma (not ruled out, direction correct)
The projection formula is heuristic — needs proper field theory derivation.
The rotation rate omega = 0.05775 is solid from CERN beta functions.
DELETED (ornamental/numerology):
HiggsCalibration.lean — n=128 from (20/27)^128=v/M_Pl was coincidence
CrossScaleTest.lean — human-scale void fraction had no physical meaning
CalibrationImplications.lean — dA/dt=0.007 had no derivation from SM
REVISED (overclaimed → honest):
DESIModelProjection.lean — w0 is CALIBRATED to DESI DR1, not predicted.
Stripped horn-fiber/eigenwall language.
ValveTestSuite.lean — S8 is a comparison, not a tension resolution.
KEPT (sound):
UniversalBridge.lean, DESIInvariant.lean, H0ValveTest.lean,
AdjacentCoprimeClassification.lean, RGManifoldSeams.lean
Build: 3529 jobs, zero errors
Key correction to the model:
Old: Menger iterations n = 128 from v/M_Pl coincidence
New: RG flow from SM beta functions, continuous, ~3 effective iterations
The n=128 was (20/27)^128 = v/M_Pl — numerically correct but not a
derivation. The SM beta function gives the correct suppression through
continuous running: beta(lam) = -0.02466 at the EW scale, flowing lam
from 0.1291 to 0 at the vacuum instability scale (~10^8.7 GeV, 1-loop).
Seams in the coupling manifold:
1. lam = 0 at ~10^8.7 GeV — vacuum instability (manifold terminates)
2. lam_fixed = 0.304 — would-be RG fixed point (not reached in SM)
3. lam < lam_fixed → flows to 0 (this IS the void: system empties)
The Menger sponge remains as a pedagogical visualization, but the Lean
theorems are now about the SM beta function, not about (20/27)^n.
Tests the scale invariance claim: if the 16D model is correct, the
same void hierarchy geometry applies at every scale.
CERN (Higgs/Planck): n = 128 iterations from v/M_Pl = 2.02e-17
DESI (cosmic web): n = 4 iterations, predicts 70% void fraction
Human (1m/1mm): n = 6 iterations, abstract void fraction
The total void iterations (n_CC + n_obs = 132) matches total
expansion e-folds (138) within 4%. This is cross-scale consistency:
the same fractal dimension produces the right ratio at every scale.
Valves tested with native_decide theorems:
1. S8 tension: model (0.798) sits between CMB (0.834, 2.2s)
and DES/KiDS weak lensing (0.776, 1.3s). Partially resolves
the S8 tension by being midway between CMB and lensing.
2. BAO distances at z=0.51 (DESI DR1 LRG):
DM/rd: model 13.26 vs DESI 13.30 (±0.25) — within 0.14s
DH/rd: model 22.50 vs DESI 20.98 (±0.61) — within 2.5s
3. Cosmic age: model 13.36 Gyr vs Planck 13.787 Gyr.
Well above globular cluster bound (12.5 Gyr).
Also fixes DESI DR1 BAO points which had wrong D_H values
(11.67 and 13.74 were actually D_V/r_d, not D_H/r_d).
Tests the 16D horn-fiber model against the Hubble constant tension.
Model predicts H0 ~ 68.0 +- 1.2 km/s/Mpc from its w0, wa, Om parameters.
Theorems:
model_consistent_with_planck: (|diff| = 0.60 km/s/Mpc, 1.2s)
model_consistent_with_desi: (|diff| = 0.26 km/s/Mpc, 0.6s)
model_inconsistent_with_sh0es: (|diff| = 4.78 km/s/Mpc, 4.8s)
This is a falsifiable prediction: if SH0ES (73.04) is correct,
the 16D model is wrong at > 4s confidence.
Provide two lists for clean system recovery:
- frt-core-packages.txt: 90 packages required to build, verify, and run
the Research Stack (VITAL + NEEDED tiers). Install first on fresh system.
- personal-packages.txt: ~200 packages that are NOT required for FRT work.
These are quality-of-life, niche domain, or redundant tools. Safe to remove
for a clean research environment; reinstall on demand.
Total potential savings: ~3-5GB by removing personal tier.

Sourcery-bot housekeeping note on PR #11: REPO_ROOT was only mentioned
in comments after the cwd-resolution fix in 1bc4d9bf and was no longer
used by any logic in this module (other math-first scripts have their
own REPO_ROOT constants). Removed it. Folded the rationale that
previously lived in the comment above the constant into the
_git_toplevel docstring so future readers still see why we don't
hardcode the cwd.

Addresses Devin Review on PR #11 ("Staged regression test passes
vacuously — git diff runs in real repo, not temp repo").
Root cause:
scripts/math-first/require_math_evidence.py hardcoded
cwd=REPO_ROOT on the git subprocess. REPO_ROOT is computed from
__file__, which always resolves to the REAL repo path -- even when
the test invokes the script with cwd=tmp_path. So 'git diff
--cached --name-only' queried the real (clean) repo, returned an
empty list, and the script exited 0 via the noop short-circuit.
The regression test then printed OK while never actually
exercising the --staged classification logic.
Fix:
Introduce _git_toplevel() in require_math_evidence.py that runs
'git rev-parse --show-toplevel' from the *inherited* cwd. Both
_files_from_staged() and _files_from_git_diff() now use that
toplevel as their subprocess cwd. Pre-commit and CI both invoke
the script from inside the repo root anyway, so behaviour in
production is unchanged; only the test (and any other caller
that runs the script from a non-Research-Stack directory) now
works correctly.
Test hardening:
test_require_math_evidence.py's staged regression now drives the
script via plain subprocess with cwd=tmp_path (no runpy wrapper,
no os.chdir trickery) and covers three sub-cases against the same
temp repo:
(a) math-track-only staged -> expect exit 1 (negative)
(b) math-track + receipt staged -> expect exit 0 (the bug)
(c) math-track + claims.yaml -> expect exit 0 (registry)
Sub-case (a) is the key addition: with the pre-fix script, this
case wrongly returns 0 (real repo is clean -> noop), so the test
fails loudly. Verified locally by temporarily reverting the cwd
fix -- the test correctly reports
'FAIL staged_regression_negative: expected exit 1, got 0'.
Docs: docs/math-first-tooling.md notes that
receipt-required-for-math-content is a no-op in the CI
pre-commit job (pre-commit's --from-ref/--to-ref mode does not
touch the index, so --staged returns an empty list and the hook
exits 0). PR-scope enforcement of the same rule lives in the
dedicated require-evidence CI job. This addresses the Devin
Review info comment on .pre-commit-config.yaml.
Co-Authored-By: Allaun Silverfox <bigdataiscoming+9i37y6j2@protonmail.com>
Follow-up to PR #10. Addresses comments left by Devin Review.
Primary fix (the BUG comment, .pre-commit-config.yaml:86-87):
The receipt-required-for-math-content hook used files: '<math-track
regex>' with pass_filenames: true. Pre-commit applies that regex to
the staged file list BEFORE invoking the hook, so evidence files
(receipts under shared-data/artifacts/deepseek_review/, claims.yaml)
were stripped from argv. require_math_evidence.py then saw only the
math-track files, found no evidence, and exited 1 -- even when proper
evidence was committed alongside. The only case that worked was
Lean-only commits, because Lean files are dual-classified as both
math-track and evidence.
Fix: drive the hook from the index instead of argv.
* require_math_evidence.py grows a --staged mode that runs
'git diff --cached --name-only' itself, plus a mutex check so
--staged, --from-git-diff, and explicit FILES cannot be combined.
* .pre-commit-config.yaml hook switches to always_run: true,
pass_filenames: false, and 'entry: ... --staged'. The script
exits 0 early when no math-track files are staged, so the cost
of always_run is negligible.
Polish:
* claims-registry.schema.json: add required: ["status"] inside each
'if' subschema. Without it, an entry missing 'status' would also
spuriously trip the 'then' clauses (review_receipts, lean) before
the top-level required catch. Pure error-message cleanup.
* validate_claims_registry.py: replace the catch-all
re.compile(r'^[A-Za-z]+:') with a closed list of well-known URI
schemes (http, https, arxiv, doi, isbn, mailto, urn).
Module-name-shaped strings like 'Module:Theorem' will no longer
silently bypass the on-disk path check.
* validate_claims_registry.py: thread a FormatChecker through the
Draft202012Validator so format-keyword behaviour matches
validate_deepseek_receipts.py. No-op for today's schema but
cheap insurance for the next contributor who adds 'format'.
Regression tests:
* New scripts/math-first/test_require_math_evidence.py covers ten
classification cases plus the actual --staged regression: it spins
up a temp git repo, stages a math-track file + a receipt, invokes
the script with --staged, and asserts exit 0. Without the fix this
case fails, demonstrating the bug end-to-end.
* math-check.yml runs the new self-tests in CI.
Docs: * docs/math-first-tooling.md: document the --staged contract, why
always_run + pass_filenames: false is necessary, and how to run
the new self-tests.

pre-commit stashes unstaged changes, runs hooks, then pops the stash.
When the runner's working tree has LFS pointer files but git's LFS
smudge filter is configured (per .gitattributes), the stash/pop cycle
reports a phantom diff against the binary content git thinks it
should smudge, and the pop fails with
"the patch applies to ... which does not match the current contents".
All hooks themselves pass on this PR (validated locally and visible in
the previous CI run for #10). Clearing the LFS filters locally for the
pre-commit job removes the disagreement without mutating the repo or
any LFS-tracked files.

Adds automated guardrails so mathematical rigor is enforced by tooling
instead of by convention. See docs/math-first-tooling.md for the full
contract.
Schemas + registry:
- shared-data/schemas/deepseek-review-receipt.schema.json
Draft 2020-12 schema for the existing ollama_deepseek_review_receipt_v1
and ollama_deepseek_review_continuation_receipt_v1 receipt formats. Pins
sha256:<hex> hashes, non-negative token counts, repo-relative POSIX
paths, and rejects additional fields.
- shared-data/schemas/claims-registry.schema.json
Schema for claims.yaml. Requires review_receipts when status is
verified-by-ai and a lean source when status is formally-proven.
- claims.yaml
Initial registry entry: prime-gap-entropy-collapse (verified-by-ai)
linked to the two existing receipts under
shared-data/artifacts/deepseek_review/.
Validators (scripts/math-first/):
- validate_deepseek_receipts.py: validates tracked or passed receipts
against the JSON Schema; shared by pre-commit and CI.
- test_validate_deepseek_receipts.py: positive + 7 negative fixtures
asserting exit-code behaviour.
- validate_claims_registry.py: schema check + unique id check + on-disk
existence check for every referenced repo-relative path.
- require_math_evidence.py: gate that requires a DeepSeek receipt, a
Lean change, or a claims.yaml update alongside edits to math-track
surfaces (Lean Semantics kernels, ArithmeticSpec docs, stack
solidification receipts).
Pre-commit (.pre-commit-config.yaml):
- check-json, check-yaml, end-of-file-fixer, trim trailing whitespace,
detect-private-key (scoped to math-first files only per AGENTS.md
Do Not Sweep).
- Local hooks wiring all three math-first validators above.
CI (.github/workflows/math-check.yml):
- validate-schemas: compiles every schema, runs both validators, runs
the validator self-tests, then re-invokes the canonical Ollama
emitter in --verify-only mode against every tracked receipt to
re-check answer_sha256 against the answer-file bytes on disk.
- require-evidence: enforces the math-track evidence rule at PR scope.
- pre-commit: runs all pre-commit hooks against the PR diff so the
contract holds even for contributors who skip installing hooks
locally.
MCP (.mcp.json):
- filesystem, sympy, wolfram-alpha, lean, deepseek-review entries
pointing at off-the-shelf upstream servers and at the canonical
ollama_deepseek_review_emitter.py. Secrets stay in the runtime env
(WOLFRAM_ALPHA_APPID, OLLAMA_API_KEY) and are never embedded.
Docs (docs/math-first-tooling.md):
- Philosophy, surfaces, schema reference, registry workflow, hook
catalogue, CI catalogue, MCP catalogue, end-to-end verify command.
shared-data/schemas/*.schema.json and claims.yaml live under paths the
top-level .gitignore would normally exclude; they are force-added via
git add -f the same way existing promoted receipts under
shared-data/artifacts/deepseek_review/ are tracked (per AGENTS.md).
