1080 — Physical Bubble Residues Do Not Target the Spurious Corner Class
Hard-to-vary question
Entry 1078 showed that the ordinary two-site bubble observable is a degree-zero readout and therefore does not canonically evaluate the surviving one-dimensional spurious-wall Čech class. The remaining frozen-source possibility was that a physical residue, cut, or factorization operation might have the required degree-one variance.
Frozen source operations
The primary source, arXiv:2408.16386v2, defines three relevant kinds of maps.
First, equations (9)--(11) associate a linear pole
to each connected subgraph and describe sequential residues on compatible collections of such poles. These are incidence operations on facets of the cosmological-polytope integrand.
Second, equations (40)--(43) decompose the bubble integrand into the two labelled denominator families
related by the occurrence exchange. This is a partial-fraction/deletion decomposition of global twisted-period integrands.
Third, equations (45)--(47) provide the six-master connection and the degree-zero physical readout already audited in Entry 1078.
The type separation
The corner complex of Entries 1073--1075 is supported instead on the three spurious parameter-space letters in equation (46):
Its degree-one term is built from pairwise overlaps of these spurious regularity walls:
The physical integrand poles and the spurious connection walls are not the same divisors. The source's sequential residue operation is therefore not a map
Nor does the source supply a comparison from the physical facet-incidence complex to the spurious-wall Čech complex. Constructing one from the matching rank or from the final closed answer would be a post hoc change of variance.
Narrow result
The corner line remains mathematically nonzero but physically unselected. Together with Entry 1078, this exhausts the relevant operations printed in the frozen two-site source:
Interpretation
This is not evidence for a new carrier cell. It is evidence for a derived coefficient class that the two-site physical prescription does not read. Accordingly, the two-site branch should now be retired as a route to physical activation of this class.
Next falsifier
Move to the smallest source-defined graph or observable for which two physical factorization supports genuinely overlap and the source supplies their ordered sequential residue or relative-chain comparison. There the analogue of is physical from the outset, rather than inherited from spurious regularity walls.
