  1. Seam & QGEOCXI
    The externalization contracts — the two open non-RH kind-(A) external-math targets SEAM.EQUIV.01 and ALPHA.QUILLEN.EXACT.01 packaged as short, self-contained EXTERNALIZATION CONTRACTS for outside specialist mathematicians (conformal nets/VOA/AQFT for the seam; determinant lines/\eta-invariants/index theory for alpha), added as two new sections at the end of tfpt_research_contracts (before “Certifiability and recommended order”), plus a one-sentence pointer in the head keybox; DOCUMENTATION ONLY — no module touched, no number changed, no status marker moved, no gate closed or narrowed, NO RH claim

    Summary

    The SEAM.EQUIV.01 contract states the minimal theorem (the scaling limit of the gapped \mu_4-equivariant CAR collar exists in local-net topology; the index-4 simple-current extension functor commutes with the limit; the OS reconstruction is the holomorphic (E_8)_1 lattice net) broken into the four review-named lemmata L1 (uniform energy/nuclearity bounds — honestly typed: NO uniform nuclearity estimate exists in the corpus), L2 (convergence of local algebras, the cited Osborne–Stottmeister scaling-limit theorem with the \mu_4-equivariant structure retained), L3 (crossed product commutes with the limit; the finite index-4 Q-system is explicit, v125/v154/v469) and L4 (uniqueness of the holomorphic c=8 reconstruction; \det K=1 vs the same-c rival SO(16)_1), with the complete typed hypothesis list (12 PROVEN-FINITE rows citing v302/v113/v155/v160/v356/v366/v367/v368/v461/v376/v377/v378/v379/v125/v154/v216/v286, 5 CITED-CLASSICAL rows, 1 OPEN target), the runnable finite models, the HONEST Lean axiom surface (SeamScalingLimit.lean kernel-proves only the arithmetic hypotheses by decide; the analytic content is named cited axioms over opaque Props; no sorry; explicitly flagged: L1–L4 have ZERO Lean content beyond the composition audit), five must-fail controls (MF-S1: c=8 alone must NOT suffice — the red-team point; MF-S2: index-2 glue must yield SO(16)_1; MF-S3: the trivial M=3 collar must give no chiral limit; MF-S4: non-order-4 clock breaks the marks; MF-S5: the v286 import firewall) and four acceptance tests;

    Key points

    1. 1
      The SEAM.EQUIV.01 contract states the minimal theorem (the scaling limit of the gapped \mu_4-equivariant CAR collar exists in local-net topology; the index-4 simple-current extension functor commutes with the limit; the OS reconstruction is the holomorphic (E_8)_1 lattice net) broken into the four review-named lemmata L1 (uniform energy/nuclearity bounds — honestly typed: NO uniform nuclearity estimate exists in the corpus), L2 (convergence of local algebras, the cited Osborne–Stottmeister scaling-limit theorem with the \mu_4-equivariant structure retained), L3 (crossed product commutes with the limit; the finite index-4 Q-system is explicit, v125/v154/v469) and L4 (uniqueness of the holomorphic c=8 reconstruction; \det K=1 vs the same-c rival SO(16)_1), with the complete typed hypothesis list (12 PROVEN-FINITE rows citing v302/v113/v155/v160/v356/v366/v367/v368/v461/v376/v377/v378/v379/v125/v154/v216/v286, 5 CITED-CLASSICAL rows, 1 OPEN target), the runnable finite models, the HONEST Lean axiom surface (SeamScalingLimit.lean kernel-proves only the arithmetic hypotheses by decide; the analytic content is named cited axioms over opaque Props; no sorry; explicitly flagged: L1–L4 have ZERO Lean content beyond the composition audit), five must-fail controls (MF-S1: c=8 alone must NOT suffice — the red-team point; MF-S2: index-2 glue must yield SO(16)_1; MF-S3: the trivial M=3 collar must give no chiral limit; MF-S4: non-order-4 clock breaks the marks; MF-S5: the v286 import firewall) and four acceptance tests;
    2. 2
      The ALPHA.QUILLEN.EXACT.01 contract states the two-step theorem T1 (gap-stable continuum limit c_1(\det D_{\mathrm{finite}})\to c_1(\det_\zeta D_{\mathrm{seam}}) under norm-resolvent convergence with the Fermi gap uniformly open over the twist torus — the Dai–Freed section has no zero; finite side computed, v472) and T2 (\delta_\tau(\log\det_\zeta\Delta_{U(1)}+8b_1c_3^6\log\varphi_{\mathrm{seam}})=0 = Bismut–Freed curvature = inflow response with the exact corpus coefficients k_0=|C|=1, k_Y=5/3, b_1=41/10, c_3=1/(8\pi), exponent -5/4=-q(D_5)), the two named open faces (the analytic diagonal-\zeta/multiplicity face v484/v485 and the topological EM1 lemma v48/v435), the typed hypothesis list (10 PROVEN-FINITE rows citing v3/v48/v341/v382/v434/v470/v435/v342/v367/v472/v484/v485/v391/v433, 5 CITED-CLASSICAL rows, 1 OPEN target), the runnable finite models, the HONEST Lean statement (there is NO Lean formalisation of this target — stated plainly), four must-fail controls (MF-A1: no experimental \alpha anywhere in the construction; MF-A2: deck/carrier/Chern-level ablations must destroy the CODATA match; MF-A3: M=3\Rightarrow C=0, M=-1\Rightarrow C=-1; MF-A4: the \{0,3,6\} \pi-power/metric-independence partition) and the review's three acceptance tests verbatim (no experimental \alpha input; unique physical fixed point 137.0359992168; ablations destroy the hit) plus one structural test;
    3. 3
      The website paper mirror of tfpt_research_contracts (papers.ts) gains one section entry covering both contracts; tfpt_research_contracts.pdf and changelog.pdf recompiled and mirrored via bash build.sh website; maps and changelog.ts regenerated via bash build.sh gen; bash build.sh audit \to AUDIT OK; manifests regenerated LAST. Both targets stay [O]; NO RH claim anywhere
