"""v377 -- SEAM.S3.E8CHARACTER.01 (S3 closure stack): the chiral c=8 content of the seam is the
SPECIFIC net (E8)_1, not just "some c=8" -- shown by the exact affine character q-series and the
mu4/GSO promotion SO(16)_1 -> (E8)_1. This is the genus-0 character discriminator that pins the
target of the scaling limit (complementing v376's central charge and v378's genus-1 torus count).
The level-1 affine character of (E8)_1 is chi = E4(q)/eta(q)^8 = j(q)^{1/3}, where E4 is the
Eisenstein series (= the E8 lattice theta Theta_{E8}) and eta^8 = q^{1/3} prod(1-q^n)^8.
[E] 1. CENTRAL CHARGE c=8 FROM THE CHARACTER. eta^8 contributes the prefactor q^{1/3} = q^{c/24}
with c=8, so chi = q^{-1/3}(1 + ...) -- the leading exponent -c/24 = -1/3 gives c=8.
[E] 2. 248 CURRENTS AT LEVEL 1. the q-series chi = q^{-1/3}(1 + 248 q + 4124 q^2 + ...): the
level-1 coefficient is 248 = dim E8 (one primary = the vacuum module), computed exactly
from E4 * prod(1-q^n)^{-8}.
[E] 3. THE mu4/GSO PROMOTION SO(16)_1 -> (E8)_1. 248 = 240 + 8 = (E8 roots) + (Cartan rank),
and 240 = 16*5*3 = dim S^+ * g_car * N_fam (the carrier trace, v1); equivalently
248 = 120 + 128 = dim SO(16) + dim(spinor 128): the order-4 mu4 clock condenses the
SO(16)_1 vacuum + spinor sectors into the single (E8)_1 module.
[E] 4. THE DISCRIMINATOR. (E8)_1 has 1 primary and 248 level-1 currents; the same-c rival
SO(16)_1 has 4 primaries and only 120 level-1 currents -- so the character pins (E8)_1,
not merely c=8.
[O] 5. RESIDUAL. this identifies the TARGET net exactly (given the mu4 projection = the seam
one-sidedness, S3); the abstract continuum EXISTENCE of the scaling limit is the cited
MMST theorem (v336). Does NOT prove the limit exists.
Status: [E] the exact character q-series (c=8, 248, 4124) + the integer promotion identities
(248=240+8=120+128, 240=16*5*3) + the 1-vs-4 primary discriminator; [O] the continuum existence
(v336) + the mu4 projection = S3. Pins the target net (E8)_1; does NOT close SEAM.EQUIV.01.
