TFPT in one map.

Boundary polarization, carrier rigidity, and observable closure.

The thin entry document for the TFPT 4.5 series. It does not attempt to prove the full theory. Its purpose is to state what TFPT claims, what it does not claim, how the closed branch is organized, and where each load-bearing argument is isolated in the paper sequence.

Front-box: inputs, contribution, exclusions, falsification surface

Inputs from previous papers

None. This is the public orientation layer for the series.

New theorem contribution

None. The note contributes only organization, status discipline, and a dependency map.

Not claimed here

No carrier proof, no exact electromagnetic calculation, no CMB fit, no mass ledger, no E8 stage atlas, and no nonperturbative QFT proof.

Falsification or audit surface

The note can fail if it misstates the dependency order, overstates the status of a downstream module, or hides where an assumption first enters.

What TFPT claims

A staged reconstruction, not a list of fits

The orientation makes two things explicit: what TFPT does claim at the primitive level, and what it explicitly does not promote to theorem status. The split is what makes the falsification surface auditable.

Claimed at the primitive level

  • TFPT is a boundary-polarized spectral theory whose primitive input is a one-sided boundary datum.
  • Boundary polarization induces a finite carrier involution; compact Higgs index and primitive Yukawa type force the ranks (dim E_-, dim E_+) = (3, 2) — the carrier polynomial 6Y² − Y − 1 = 0 is a corollary, not an entry assumption.
  • The Standard-Model packet, α, the Cabibbo angle, and the PMNS reactor angle are forced by the same primitive datum, not fitted independently.
  • The strong-CP null θ_eff = 0 is a theorem-level consequence of admissibility and determinant-line closure.

Not claimed at this level

  • The carrier polynomial is not invoked before the rank discharge — it appears only as the minimal polynomial of the derived eigenvalues.
  • Minimality is not a wishlist over preferred physics — it is a presentation-invariant defect filtration on essentialized admissible bordisms.
  • The CMB Stage 2 sky realization is not a theorem. A good CMB world is not automatically this CMB world.
  • The full pole-mass ledger, detailed E8 stage atlas, and cosmological comparison rows (Ω_b, η_B, m_a) are downstream comparisons, not primitive selectors.

The primitive boundary datum

Everything reconstructs from a single one-sided boundary datum. The primitive kernel is reconstructed canonically; carrier, gauge group, and the Standard-Model packet follow from a stabilizer theorem rather than from a list of inserted representations.

Primitive datum
T=(A+,H+,D+,J,Γ,BΣ)\mathfrak{T}_\partial = (\mathcal{A}_+,\mathcal{H}_+,D_+,J,\Gamma,B_\Sigma)
Primitive kernel
Tker=(A,H,D,J,Γ,τdbl,ιC,Pprim,[uΣ],c3)\mathfrak{T}_\partial^{\mathrm{ker}} = (\mathcal{A},\mathcal{H},D,J,\Gamma,\tau_{\mathrm{dbl}},\iota_C,P_{\mathrm{prim}},[u_\Sigma],c_3)
The three decoders

Structure, counting, observables

The closed branch is condensed through three decoders. Each one isolates a different burden of proof, which is why the paper series separates kernel, carrier, precision readouts, QFT closure, metrology, and cosmology.

YY

Generates structure

The carrier decoder Y is the determinant-normalized two-point generator on the derived split E = E_- ⊕ E_+. The ranks are forced by the compact Higgs index (dim E_+ = 2) and primitive Yukawa type (dim E_- = 3). The carrier polynomial 6Y² − Y − 1 = 0 is then the minimal polynomial of the two derived roots — a corollary, not an entry assumption.

Y=13P+12P+Y = -\tfrac{1}{3} P_- + \tfrac{1}{2} P_+
[uΣ]=1[u_\Sigma] = 1

Generates counting

The primitive seam class normalization controls family counting (3), admissible occupancy (Ω_adm = 48), and the compact Higgs index (N_Φ = 1).

[uΣ]=1[u_\Sigma] = 1
u:=φ0u := \varphi_0

Generates bridge observables

After sectorization, the retained UV seed projects to the bridge observables — the Cabibbo angle, the radiative β coefficient, and the reactor angle of the PMNS matrix.

u:=φ0u := \varphi_0
Status discipline

The status matrix

Every layer of the derivation chain has its own proof status. The series is split by burden of proof so that a reader checking the carrier theorem is not asked to also accept downstream sky realizations.

Series map

Six technical papers, one orientation map

The recommended public order is Paper 0 (orientation map), then Paper 2 (visible core result), then Paper 1 (formal foundation), Paper 3 (precision), Paper 4 (analytic closure), Paper 5 (metrology), and finally Paper 6 (downstream cosmology). The mathematical dependency order is Paper 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6.

Reading order

Two paths through the same theory

The mathematical dependency order is rigid. The recommended public order uses Paper 2 as the visible hook and Paper 0 as the discipline document — without breaking the dependency chain.

Paper 0 is the public entry document of the TFPT 4.5 series. It states the staged reconstruction, the three decoders, the status matrix, and the dependency map between the six papers — without imported numerics, without invisible assumptions.
